Yeah but thats only true if he dies while he's still relevant and important. It's not gonna jump like Pac's did...Pac died at the height of his success and had more NEW albums come posthumously. Plus Pac's death was a lot more interesting than a normal death of an artist due to the controversy surrounding it and events that led up to it and ultimately the ones that followed it. I mean people die all the time but there's people still arguing the facts/rumors of the case 16 years later. But who knows...maybe I'm wrong.
Still though Eminem wouldn't have sold like this if he didn't have and play the white card be honest with yourselves. White folks wouldn't have massed together the way they did to buy any other rappers albums like they've done with him. He is the great white hope. The one artist white people can truly relate to. There's no doubt he's one of the top tier artists based on skill but he's also the biggest gimmick artist in the game ever and thats no coincidence. And honestly there will never be another WHITE rapper that sells like Eminem let alone a black rapper. Plus people aren't buying up music like they used to when Em got the bulk of his sales.
