Eminem appeared on BET's "106 & Park" with his partner in crime, 50 Cent. [watch here] As we previously reported, Eminem's new "Relapse" album debuted number one, selling just over 600,000 copies but Eminem says his main focus was getting the respect of the fans. [watch here] "I mean, record sales to me, honestly, since the beginning of my career I've always said they're not as important to me as the respect and things like that," Em explained. "I would just rather rap and get respect from the fans and my peers and things like that. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to sell any records, but at the same time it's not my main priority."

50 Cent later chimed in. "I think we absolutely in a great space considering his project is where it's at, number one," 50 said in the interview. [watch here] "And it's working. Until they find a collaboration of artists that work as well as we do together, I don't think we got issues...I feel like [Em] is the best rapper because he possesses the way to say things that aren't supposed to be cool."
