Eminem’s heartfelt music video for “Mockingbird” has officially surpassed 1.2 billion views on YouTube, marking another massive milestone for the rap icon.
This makes it his fifth music video as a lead artist to hit the billion-view club, sixth if you count his collaboration with Akon on “Smack That”. Originally released in 2005 as a single from “Encore”, Mockingbird remains one of Eminem’s most emotional and personal songs, which recently caught a second wind when discovered by a younger generation of fans.
