In October, this song from “Encore” reached the Spotify chart for the first time in 16 years, and its ascension is unstoppable.
For two weeks, “Mockingbird” has been steadily climbing up the ladder, showing more and more streams every day. It was a matter of time until it reached the Top 50. “Mockingbird” has become Em’s most streamed song on Spotify. And recently, it has been marked as the most streamed song of the 2010s. On November 2, “Mockingbird” gained over 1.93 million streams and established its dominance over other songs of the same era:
On this very day, the song entered the Spotify Daily Global Top 50.
Currently, “Mockingbird” is charting at No.66 on the Spotify Weekly, having moved 42 points up since last week. Mind you, this is the first week of Taylor Swift’s new album, so he occupies 13 top positions on the chart.
On all national Spotify charts, the song that was never released as a single reaches new peaks day in and day out. This dynamic stems from the song’s popularity on TikTok. Some might find it atrocious that the platform promotes a clipped and sped-up version of one of Eminem’s most personal songs. But at the end of the day, we see that more people come to listen to the original version and find a new appreciation for Marshall’s music.
