Eminemreached a new peak of 86.16 million monthly listeners, officially surpassing Post Malone to become the 5th most-listened-to artist on the platform.
Marshall has claimed this spot from Post Malone, whose position seemed unattainable just a couple of years ago.
This monumental achievement comes on the heels of a 155,000 listener increase in the previous day. The momentum from “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)” is undeniable, and fans worldwide are showing their love for Eminem.
Here’s a quick rundown of the current Spotify top 5:
1. The Weeknd — 105.1 million
2. Taylor Swift — 97.3 million
3. Billie Eilish — 96.7 million
4. Coldplay — 87.2 million
5. Eminem — 86.16 million
With his relentless work ethic, razor-sharp lyrics, and ever-evolving sound, Eminem proves to be a consistent player in the modern streaming game even though half of his catalogue was released in the pre-streaming era. And for a month after “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce)” release, his audience is only going to grow. How high up the ranking it will take Eminem? Let’s wait and see. Or better yet, let’s stream his music while we are waiting.
