Not that really anyone bought records last week, but yes: 120,000 copies of Marshall Mathers LP 2 was enough to put Eminem back at No. 1. Meanwhile, Lady Gaga sold 46,000 copies of ARTPOP, which is a drop of 82 percent. (To be fair to Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake and Kanye both experienced similar second-week drop-offs this year. But yeah, not a great statistic.) In happier news: Lorde is still No. 1 on the “Hot 100.” “Royals” > “The Monster,” forever.
