Was he with Proof when he died?

[Iceman]

No but Proof was trying to get them to talk again and was arranging a meeting with them so they put the past behind them after he died as a mark of respect.

The new EP from Bad Meets Evil, Hell: The Sequel is headed towards #1 on the Billboard 200, ending Adele's one-week return to the top.

The EP is predicted to sell around 150,000 copies by the end of the week.

11-year-old Jackie Evancho will make her debut on the list with Dream With Me, who could also be #1, but will likely be #2.

Adele's 21 would likely drop to #3.

[Iceman]

Cool artwork I found. It's a fake but would be nice if it were real.

[Iceman]

Im not so sure they're gonna get number 1 now..... I reckon 3 on the chart is more likely.

Lighters debuted at number 37 in the UK, absolutely zilch promo, not too bad I suppose....

Bad Meets Evil could have it very good on next week’s Billboard 200 as the Eminem/Royce Da 5’9 duo are in the lead to top the chart.

To do so, “Hell: the Sequel” has to hold off a surge by the angelic Jackie Evancho and her new album, “Dream With Me.” That’s a celebrity death match just waiting to happen. As of Friday, “Hell” was on target to sell between 155,000-165,000 copies, according to Hits Daily Double, while “Dream With Me” was looking good for 145,000-155,000.

That means Adele’s “21” will likely drop to No. 3, but it still poised to surpass the 100,000 mark. Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” continues to decline, looking to sell only 70,000 copies or so.

The third debut in the top 10 belongs to Owl City’s “All Things Bright and Beautiful,” which will likely bow at No. 5.

Rounding out the top 10 are Jason Aldean’s ‘’My Kinda Party’’ at No. 6, “Now 38” at No. 7, “Book of Mormon” original cast album at No. 8, Brad Paisley’s “This is Country Music” at No. 9 an Top 10 mainstay, Mumford & Sons’ “Sigh No More.”

Debuted at number 7 in the UK, not too shabby at all.

Eminem and his star power almost surely guarantees heavy sales on any project that bears his name and the trend continued this week as Slim Shady’s newest release Hell: The Sequel – alongside longtime friend Royce Da 5’9 as Bad Meets Evil – gets the distinction of debuting atop the Billboard 200 charts.

For Eminem, the Billboard position is a familiar haunt as the Motor City bad boy has ruled the charts for much of the past decade and remains a record selling phenomenon. In Royce Da 59’s case however, this marks the first time the highly vaunted MC has reached such lofty status. Clocking in at 166, 992 in sales, Hell: The Sequel shows just how powerful Eminem’s brand is as there has been little promotional push and no clear cut smash single to speak of.

Fans on Twitter showed their support of Slim Shady and Nickel Nine’s latest, with some expecting the release to sell as high as it did while others seeing this as a chance for Royce to get his due after so much early promise. Twitter fan @CraigSJenkins tweeted, “Any Eminem project is a lock for at least 6 figure 1st week sales. He is practically the biggest selling artist of our time.” User @ArmedPropaganda said of the EP’s sale, “It's proof that people still want quality music.”

The positive comments continued with, “Big shout out to Royce & Em (Bad Meets Evil) on having the number 1 album on Billboard, very well deserved. The album is crazy lyrical.” Fan @Darealrome humorously added, “Bad Meets Evil went #1, I've said it once and I'll say it again... Eminem is the Rap cheat code.” User @Atilla shouted out Royce Da 5’9 by tweeting, “Eminem & Royce da 5'9" (Bad Meets Evil) have the #1 album in the country. This is great news for Royce, who needed it.”

Hell: The Sequel marks the reunion of the Detroit rhyme slingers after a tiff between Royce and Eminem split the pair apart after a promising few tracks over a decade ago.

Bad Meets Evil wreaks havoc on the albums chart this week with Hell: The Sequel. The dynamic duo of Eminem and Royce Da 5’9″ enters the Billboard 200 at No. 1 with their collaborative EP.

A decade after they last recorded together, the Detroit MCs debut with 171,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Eminem last held the No. 1 spot with Recovery, which spent seven weeks at No. 1 in 2010. Royce Da 5’9″ previously peaked at No. 110 with his 2009 solo project Street Hop.

Pop powerhouse Adele’s 21 slides to No. 3 (115,000), while Lady Gaga’s Born This Way moves down two spots to No. 4 (68,000).

Among the new entries this week is R&B singer Ledisi, whose fifth album Pieces of Me comes in at No. 8 with 36,000, marking her first top 10 entry and biggest sales week of her career.

Bad Meets Evil - the hip-hop duo of Eminem and Royce da 5'9" - bookends the Hot 100's top 10 by igniting 17-10 with Digital Gainer honors (and besting its No. 16 peak upon its debut five weeks ago). The cut soars 12-5 on Digital Songs, up 56% to 143,000, marking its best sales week to-date. Airplay continues to build for the song, which rockets 35-20 on Radio Songs (47 million, up 35%).

"Lighters" (which also marks featured artist Bruno Mars' sixth Hot 100 top 10) is Eminem's second top 10 this year. He and Skylar Grey guested on Dr. Dre's "I Need a Doctor," which reached No. 4 in March. Eminem has now notched top 10s under three billings, in fact; he sang on D12's No. 6-peaking "My Band" in 2004. (The superstar has logged 14 top 10s as a soloist).
