While “Love the Way You Lie” and “Not Afraid” are closing in on major YouTube milestones, they are not the fastest-growing Eminem videos — so they could use more fan support.
Eminem’s YouTube numbers remain strong, with two of his most iconic music videos — “Love the Way You Lie” and “Not Afraid” — approaching major milestones. But while both are gaining views daily, they are not the fastest-growing Em videos right now. That title belongs to “Without Me”, which is pulling in over 800,000 views per day, far outpacing them.
Here is where things stand:
– “Love the Way You Lie” (2.945 billion views) is gaining over 500,000 views per day, meaning it should hit 3 billion around June 2025.
– “Not Afraid” (1.957 billion views) is growing by over 350,000 views per day, putting it on track to reach 2 billion by July 2025.
While both videos are on the way to smashing new records, they need more public attention to get there faster.
“Love the Way You Lie”, directed by Joseph Kahn, remains one of YouTube’s most-viewed videos (No.37) despite not winning any major awards at the time of its release. Meanwhile, Rich Lee’s “Not Afraid” took home Best Male Video and Best Hip-Hop Video at the MTV VMAs, proving its impact. But more importantly, they have left a lasting mark on popular culture, exceeding the limitations of the genre.
Both videos helped define Eminem’s career—so if you haven’t watched them in a while, now is the time to hit play and help push them over the line.
