Many artists went through Shady Records supportive hands. How do the label alumnis and associates fare on the streaming platform?
Some fan accounts on social media previously known as Twitter started making the lists, so we are presenting our own absolutely arbitrary, but technically correct on the date of August 6, list:
Shady Records family monthly listeners:
Eminem — 63.56 million
50 Cent — 31.66 million
Dr. Dre – 22.56 million

What is the most interesting here is Ez Mil’s numbers. He dropped his first Shady Records single featuring Eminem this Friday. And since then his audience shot up more inexplicably. Only yesterday he had the monthly audience of 325,000 listeners, today is closing in on his first million. Which absolutely makes sense as his single debuted on Spotify with over 999,000 plays, just a little bit shy of a million and of getting into the Top 5 Debuts.
