Marshall’s lyrical masterpiece marked its first half a billion on the streaming platform.
The song, released on “The Marshall Mathers LP” in 2000, has no awards but has a long-lasting impact on culture. The story that Em told in this song enriched the English language with a new noun that describes an overzealous fan and also made this phenomenon a topic for a serious conversation beyond media panic.
Now, “Stan” is the second most streamed song from “The Marshall Mathers LP” and 13th in Marshall’s catalogue. The popularity of the track is growing exponentially. The song hit the 400 million streams milestone in late May of 2021. It took just slightly over seven months for “Stan” to gain another 100 million, a quarter of what the song amassed in previous years.
