Eminem releases Grammy ad, has best-selling album of 2010

January 6th, 2011

The 53rd Annual Grammy Awards are just over a month away and Eminem is getting ready to take some if not all of those ten trophies home. He even has an ad to celebrate.

Voiced by what sounds like Samuel L. Jackson, the animated commercial takes a journey through various moments in Slim’s career to the sound of “Not Afraid.” Watch it below.

More reason for the rapper to celebrate has come in the announcement that the heavily Grammy nominated Recovery was just named the best-selling album of 2010 in North America. According to Nielsen Soundscan, Em’s seventh album sold over 3.42 million copies, which was enough to beat both Lady Antebellum and Taylor Swift, who came in second and third, respectively. Not only that, but Recovery was also the best-selling album in the U.S. since Josh Groban’s Noel sold 3.70 million in 2007.
