MMLP hit 5.5 billion Spotify streams, showing that the 2000 classic hasn’t lost its grip on fans worldwide.
Having just celebrated its 25th anniversary this year, Eminem’s “The Marshall Mathers LP” has reached a new milestone: 5.5 billion streams on Spotify. The album is pulling in around 2 million plays every single day, making it Em’s second most-streamed project on the platform. Since crossing the 5 billion mark in January, the numbers keep stacking so quickly that 6 billion next spring looks more than likely.
Released on May 23, 2000, MMLP was a cultural thunderbolt. It debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, stayed there for eight weeks, and moved 1.78 million copies in its first week alone – still one of the fastest-selling albums in US history. Packed with unforgettable tracks like “The Real Slim Shady”, “Stan”, and “The Way I Am”, plus features from Dido, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Xzibit, and Nate Dogg, the album redefined what a rap record could be.
A quarter-century later, “The Marshall Mathers LP” aged well: it continues to connect with millions of listeners worldwide, inspiring new generations and supporting old fans.
