Rapper 50 Cent's "Get Rich or Die Tryin' " has racked up more than 870,000 units in U.S. sales since its off-cycle release Thursday, making it a lock to appear at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 when Nielsen SoundScan releases its data this morning. Even with the short sales period, the Shady/Aftermath/Interscope
set has the fourth-highest weekly total ever by a rap album.
Eminem's "The Marshall Mathers LP" and "The Eminem Show" account for the three higher sales weeks.
