Eminem’s Marshall Mathers LP Goes Diamond

Original Story The Marshall Mathers LP, Eminem’s sophomore album to be released on Aftermath/Interscope Records, has officially received the diamond certification from the RIAA.
Released in May 2000, and selling 1.7 million units in the first week of sales alone, the certification means that the LP sold more than 10 million units in the U.S. alone.

As previously reported, last month 2002′s The Eminem Show, Shady’s third disc for Aftermath/Interscope, also went diamond. This recent certification makes Em the only artist in rap history with two diamond plaques.
