Is 50 Cent the only artist EVER to go GOLD 3RD WEEK?

[antarticp]

Not Gold as in 500,000 after 3 weeks - I mean Gold as in 500,000+ sold in his 3rd week!

Proving that there's no such thing as bad publicity, R. Kelly's Chocolate Factory sold 532,000 copies in its first week, according to SoundScan, to bump 50 Cent's Get Rich or Die Tryin' from the Number One slot.

And while Kelly regained his chart prowess, 50 Cent's figure is hardly chump change. The 520,000 copies it sold at Number Two push its total to 2.2 million in less than three weeks of release.

Shit is incredible. Who else can claim do that?

not many folks ... this is the part of hip hop thats sad ... people see fif today and try to shit on him ... no one rides that high forever ... experienced artist will tell you they build you up to tear you down .... @ the end of the day we gotta remember shit like this .... fif hit serious milestones with this album .... fuck a street buzz ... niggaz been having street buzz since the days of Grand Master Flash etc ........ but not many can say they moved 500k additional albums on thier 3rd week ..... damn this is beyond crazy ....
