G4 face Eminem in race for album chart number one

G4 are heading for the top of the album chart this weekend, but Eminem's greatest hits album 'Curtain Call' is released on Friday and HMV expects it to take the number one slot.

Yawn. Popera boys G4 are apparently going to be top of the album chart this weekend, unless Eminem steps in to save us all. G4 are currently way ahead of The Darkness in the mid-weeks, but Eminem releases that greatest hits album 'Curtain Call' on Friday, and with any luck, he'll keep high-pitched screeching from the top slot. I reckon he can take 'em.

HMV's Gennaro Castaldo agrees with me. "Eminem is by far the biggest recording artist in the world, so it's a massive deal whenever he releases a new album. I fully expect 'Curtain Call' to sell more copies in just two days than any other album will manage in a week of trading, to give Eminem yet another number one. We also expect him to go on and top the charts at Christmas."
