Marshall’s enduring appeal is on full display as four of his albums secure spots on the UK’s End Of Year Albums chart, representing the hip hop culture at its finest.
Eminem has proven once again why he is a hip hop legend, with four of his albums making it onto the UK’s annual album chart. Leading the pack is his first compilation, “Curtain Call: The Hits”, ranked at No.13. Its sequel, “Curtain Call 2”, follows at No.33, continuing the trend of fans loving his greatest hits collections.
Eminem’s latest release, “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)”, however, is in higher regard this year, holding its own at No.32. This marks yet another milestone for Marshall, showing that his new work is as impactful as his classics.
Marshall also has a fourth album on the list — his 2002 classic “The Eminem Show”. Ranked at No.92 this year, it is the album’s third time appearing on the UK End Of Year chart. Its first was back in 2003, followed by another showing on the 2023-2024 rankings just last year.
Interestingly, hip hop as a whole had a limited presence on the chart, with just five rap albums in the Top 50. Eminem’s contributions include the three highest-ranking hip hop projects, while 50 Cent’s “Best Of” compilation landed at No.41 and Kanye West’s “Graduation” rounded out the list at No.50.
Eminem’s multiple placements reflect his lasting influence on music. Whether it is old-school hits or fresh releases, fans across the globe appreciate both.
