Eminem has become the first artist ever to sell one million digital copies of an album in the U.S.

Recovery, the best-selling album of 2010, moves past the one million digital mark this week. The record-breaking feat comes only weeks after Em debuted at No. 1 with Hell: The Sequel, his collaborative EP with Royce Da 5’9”. This is the first time in the last five years an artist has landed two No. 1 albums within a one-year period.

“Recovery selling one million digital albums is an incredible achievement by an incredible artist,” stated Interscope Records’ Vice Chairman Steve Berman. “I have had the pleasure of working with Eminem throughout the course of his career, and I’m delighted to be a part of yet another milestone on his amazing journey.”
