Eminem’s “Houdini” continues to rack up streams at a staggering pace more than half a year since its release.
According to @chartdata, one of Eminem’s latest hits has reached a massive milestone across all platforms. While an exact breakdown was not provided, the numbers add up. On Spotify alone, the track has pulled in over 569 million streams, while its music video has racked up more than 214 million views on YouTube. With additional plays from Apple Music, Tidal, Deezer, Anghami, and other streaming services, hitting 1 billion streams globally seems like a sure bet.
The lead single from his 12th studio album, “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)”, “Houdini” made a major impact upon release. The track debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 with 48.8 million first-week streams and 49,000 copies sold, making it Eminem’s highest-charting single in over a decade.
Beyond the charts, “Houdini” has also earned its share of accolades. The music video won Best Hip-Hop and Best Visual Effects at the MTV VMAs, and the song earned two Grammy nominations. Even months after its release, “Houdini” still pulls in over 800,000 daily streams on Spotify, implying that Shady’s magic is not fading away.
