Eminem has made a triumphant return to the music scene with his latest album, 'The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce),' which has quickly climbed to the top of various music charts in the United States. The rapper's new release has achieved a significant milestone by claiming the No. 1 spot on Billboard's Top Streaming Albums chart, garnering an impressive 220 million streams in just one week.
'The Death of Slim Shady' marks Eminem's first chart-topper on the Top Streaming Albums chart, a ranking that showcases the albums and EPs with the highest streaming numbers on platforms like Spotify and Apple Music. This achievement also represents Eminem's inaugural entry into the top 10 of this relatively new chart.
Prior to this latest success, Eminem had only managed to place one album on the chart, namely 'Curtain Call: The Hits,' which has enjoyed a sustained presence on the ranking, peaking at No. 18 before the release of 'The Death of Slim Shady.'
The album's impressive streaming figures have played a pivotal role in its chart-topping performance, with over 220 million streams recorded in the first week of its release. Additionally, the album saw more than 110,000 purchases, further solidifying its position as the top-selling album in the country.
'The Death of Slim Shady' has not only dominated the Top Streaming Albums chart but has also debuted at No. 1 on the prestigious Billboard 200 chart, marking Eminem's eleventh career chart-topping album. The success of this latest release underscores Eminem's enduring popularity and influence in the music industry.
In a remarkable turn of events, Eminem's 'The Death of Slim Shady' has displaced Zach Bryan's 'The Great American Bar Scene' from the top spot on the Top Streaming Albums chart, showcasing the rapper's continued relevance and appeal among music enthusiasts.
Eminem's latest achievement serves as a testament to his enduring legacy as a powerhouse in the hip-hop genre, solidifying his status as one of the most influential artists in contemporary music.
