Em’s Grammy-winning joint with Fifty has become his 40th song to earn the milestone of 200 million Spotify plays.
The song was released as the lead single from “Relapse” in February 2009 and broke the first week digital sales record with 418,000 downloads. “Crack A Bottle” was leaked and released on the 4th Quarter Pressure Part 2 mixtape. Initially, it was rumoured to be on Fifty’s fourth studio album, “Before I Self Destruct”, but after all, it was assigned to “Relapse” exclusively.
The music video for the song was filmed even before release but didn’t find its way on air. It was leaked, however, by all parties involved in its creation.
Only recently, Eminem released the visuals on his YouTube channel, celebrating the re-release of the song on his greatest hits compilation “Curtain Call 2”.
