Two decades after its release, Eminem’s iconic anthem “Lose Yourself” just hit another jaw-dropping milestone — 2.6 billion streams on Spotify. With that, Slim Shady has joined his own “Without Me” in the elite streaming club, becoming the only rapper in history with two solo tracks to cross that threshold.
It’s a feat no other hip-hop artist — not even Drake or Kanye — has matched with solo songs. And that’s not even the end of the story.
Eminem’s Streaming Dominance: The Top 5
Here’s how Em’s biggest tracks stack up right now:
-
Without Me — 2.69 billion
-
Lose Yourself — 2.6 billion
-
’Till I Collapse (feat. Nate Dogg) — 2.26 billion
-
The Real Slim Shady — 2.2 billion
-
Mockingbird — 2.1 billion
While “’Till I Collapse” boasts massive numbers, it’s a collaboration with Nate Dogg, so it doesn’t count toward the solo-only leaderboard. That makes the double 2.6B achievement even more exclusive for “Lose Yourself” and “Without Me.”
Who’s Next? The Race Is On
With over 726,000 daily streams, Mockingbird is creeping up on The Real Slim Shady (which gets around 881,000 daily plays). And while both are still behind “Till I Collapse” in total count, the race to see which will join the 2.6B club next is heating up.
Whether it’s nostalgic fans, TikTok-fueled revivals, or just Em’s unshakable dominance in hip-hop culture — one thing’s certain: these numbers aren’t slowing down.
Eminem may have once rapped “You better lose yourself in the music,” but fans around the world clearly haven’t lost interest. He’s not just surviving in the streaming era — he’s breaking records in real time.
