Eminem’s ‘Music To Be Murdered By’ Makes Historic Billboard 200 Debut

    Eminem has reportedly set a new Billboard 200 record. According to Billboard, Em’s 11th studio album Music To Be Murdered By has made its debut at No. 1, making Shady the first artist to earn 10 consecutive No. 1 albums in the chart’s history. He was previously tied with Kanye West at nine.

    Nielsen Music reports Music To Be Murdered By sold roughly 279,000 equivalent album units for the week ending January 23. He reeled in 154,000 SEAs as well, which is equal to 217.6 million on-demand streams for the album’s tracks. It’s the largest streaming week for an album since Post Malone’s Hollywood’s Bleeding.

    Shady is now also one of only six acts with 10 or more No. 1 albums, joining The Beatles (with a record 19), JAY-Z (14), Bruce Springsteen (11), Barbra Streisand (11) and Elvis Presley (10).

    [This article has been updated. The following was published on January 20, 2020.]

    Eminem’s surprise album Music To Be Murdered By is expected to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 next week and in the process, make Billboard history. According to HITS Daily Double, Shady’s 11th studio effort is projected to move between 300,000 and 325,000 album-equivalent units.

    If the project does indeed top the Billboard 200, it will make the Detroit-bred rap god the first artist to earn 10 consecutive No. 1 debuts in U.S. history. Em is currently tied with Kanye West, who earned his ninth consecutive No. 1 debut with 2019’s Jesus Is King.


    First week sales of Music To Be Murdered By will likely land between 2018’s Kamikaze (434,000 units) and 2017’s Revival (267,000). The project could do more considering it’s been a heavy topic of conversation on social media.

    The song “Unaccommodating” featuring Young M.A sparked controversy for its line about the 2017 Manchester bombing that took place during an Ariana Grande concert. The video for “Darkness” was also a popular topic. The song and subsequent video addresses the 2017 Las Vegas shooting and finds Em advocating for gun control.

    Music To Be Murdered By arrived on Friday (January 17) and boasts features from Royce Da 5’9, Black Thought, KXNG Crooked, Q-Tip and more.

      1. I’m still pissed off that he diss Tyler the Creator on the last album. Leave the gays alone….they’re all mine… yummy

        1. then go fuck your dad bet he wuld love that huh ……an apple never fell far from the tree…..fuck tyler too fuckin homo

      2. Hey look, The Angry Queer has returned to rain on another parade again. Damn is there ever a sunny day with you around lol….Go hang out on Taylor Swift’s Website and stay off here already.

      3. Yes nobody is forcing you to listen to thought out music. Go listen to lil pump, he has a lot of context and lyrics, gucci gang. he says it a million times. Should be enough to satisfy you I think. At least he aint overrated and doesn’t have an overrated album. Not enough said, but I’ll stop here.

    1. Marshall Mathers was criticised by many last week, including Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham, for the “unnecessarily hurtful” verse on Unaccommodating.

      The Manchester band were leading the Detroit rapper in the official midweek album charts released on Monday.

      Singer Liam Fray says he “feels sorry” for him for employing “shock” tactics.

      “It all just felt like an old comedian who can’t get on the telly anymore just saying something outrageous,” says Fray, who accepts his band will more than likely lose out to Eminem when things such as streaming are considered come Friday.

      “I just felt a bit sorry for him. I just felt like he’s jumping the shark a bit.”

      Ariana Grande ‘overwhelmed’ on Manchester return
      He adds: “He’s trying to be as outrageous as possible because he’s running out of ideas, that’s what it is.

      “It’s nothing else [but] shock value. You have to shock to be good – that’s

      1. Shock value was fun when it was somewhat new to the mainstream, and when eminem was young. But when a middle aged man does shock value, it just gets to be lame.

        1. Or was shock value fun when YOU was young, and now you don’t care anymore? And because eminem stays true to him self and his art you are a little tired of it? Just a thought.

      2. has this mayor ever heard an Em song ever? Why are we acting like this whole “shock value” criticism is new? they said it when he made fun of the Columbine shooting in the early 2000s. “Shock value” put him where he is and his fans have come to expect it from him. It’s nothing like an old comedian trying to stay relevant, it’s about yall tryna force change on somebody who’s always one way… their way.
        Y’all starting to sound like those idiots that gave Dave Chappelle’s special a 0 rating coz they felt he was only being edgy for the chuckles. Like he was ALWAYS that way. FUCK YOU AND THAT GAY ASS MAYOR!

    2. I told you gay, mummy boys Eminem fans the guy is rubbish…. The guy is rubbish rubbish… How can Em be the best rapper alive… Over Tupac and bigger dead bodies it will never happen. Fuck all Em fans

      1. I told y’all that I’m the dumbest gayest nigga alive who will fuck all you boys doggy style…. Tyler the Creator is the Best Rapper Alive.

        1. Im guessing you are trolling or you must have a extremely hard time understanding what eminems about. Nobody is forcing you to like his music, its a matter of taste, but he aint rubbish and he is the best rapper alive, obviously if you are comparing him to 2pac since 2pac is dead.

      2. This guy is smoking crack. Hip hop fans have higher standards for our music than the pop audience. M is seen as trash in the hip hop. How many hip hop fans bought this record? very few! Shade is a fraud.

    3. It’s impossible not to have a #1 with a name as big as Eminem in 2020, considering streams count as album purchases now. Ridiculous. I’m sure all of us here have streamed songs we hate, to see what we think, and would never have any intention of buying. It’s all a sham. Of course modern artists will destroy the Beatles and others in “sales”, because its literally all about clicks. Me listening to Ems new album helped achieve this, and I hate the album.

      1. They seperate actual album sales (physical copies) from digital sales. So you always know how many albums somebody actually sold. But what you are saying don’t hold water anyways. Back in the day, all you could do was to BUY THE ALBUM. There was no internet and streams. Now nobody is practically buying real albums, people stream and buy digital. So it’s unfair to compare modern artists to the old schools.

        1. That’s literally what I said. Hence why I said you have artists easily beating records, but it’s BS, because it shouldn’t be compared. Sales VS streams. They should be separate, completely. 10 million streams shouldn’t equate to a single album sale. Should just be streams, and that’s it. Because ppl stream trash all day because it’s trending. If we go solely based on views, then Bhad Baby (cash me outside girl) will outsell legends like Redman.

      2. That’s because people, like me who used to buy albums now stream exclusively. You think that’s not supposed to count cause I’m not wasting my money buying shit when I already pay to stream?
        Fuck you.

      1. Jokes right? Drake the guy who dosent write his own ABC rhymes? R&b pop singer using ghost writers fuck off please he gets no props

      2. Your point is what? He is a young artist with a huge young fanbase, of course he sells a lot first week. Eminem is a little bit older, and his fanbase is older as well, probably dont buy all his albums anymore either. Still he manages to transcend generations cause I know kids listening to em in this day and age. Eminem is the greatest rapper we’ve ever seen. Everybody does not think so obviously but his skill is off the charts. he writes his own shit and seem to be having a full tank of things to say. He is the only REAL rapper left. Writing his own shit, doing his own shit. Drake is not running the game, he is a succesful pop-artist yes. Nothing more. I dont know the age of most haters of eminem but Im guessing they haven’t been with it from the the get go.

      1. Did you just come here to make a statement that a “trash album” is actually what it means, “a trash album”? Nothing else? You are not specifying what album is trash. Your photoalbum? Someone else’s? Do you mean a music album? We don’t know. If you should be happening to be referring to eminems latest album, then no it’s not trash. Dont like it? Fine, your choice. Just because you dont like something, does not make it trash.

    4. It’s the same crap with him he’s still rapping at a super fast pace you’re already established as a legend slow it down get grimier beats not this stadium pop shit I think he raps fast to hide that he’s spitting bullshit most of the time I stopped really paying attention after the Eminem show

      1. You stopped paying attention after TES, Yet you complain that he has nothing to say? TF are you on LMAO, at least lie about it before making those bold statements, you just sound like a sad opinionated hater.

      1. Dont like it? Fine. Its not trash though, or are you not aware of the widespread praise it already got? Just because you dont like it does not make it “garbage”. Show some respect. Just say “I didn’t like it”.

          1. Very definition of Internet thug … caucasoid? Seriously lol racism? That’s how you choose to play it … ok …. you must be the prime example of ignorant hood black used by white racists to argue extermination

          2. Don’t be fucking ignorant. I’ve heard garbage… I’ve checked out Nick’s new shit… Like it or not, this is not garbage.

            1. Hey that new mumble rap album that Em dropped steaming hot load of crap.. once again the grand wizard of wigga hop is attempting to fit in.. Em you’re 50.. give it up.. MGK crushed you.. Nick Cannon bodied you.. Drake took all of your white female fans.. and LIL Nas will own you .. clown

    5. Lmao, I bet this makes all the Em haters so mad. They probably listen to Drake and think he’s a GOAT lmaoooo

      1. Actually, most modern Em haters are former Stan’s, who hate newschool rap, and can’t stand what Eminem sounds like today. They never liked Drake, or newschool in general.

    6. I thought the album was really good, one of his best. “Marsh” and “little engine” are probably the best songs on the album. His hooks are better on this album, his beats are still lacking, he should stop making his own beats and get some outside production(DJ Paul) but overall really good album.

      1. he did not produce on this album idiot ……and u r 1 person , he should listen to u about what beats he should use

        1. Well first, if you look at the tracklist, it says “produced by: Eminem” and whoever else, even Royce came out and said he sent Em beats and Em added more shit to it, so maybe he didn’t produce the whole beat but he did add to it… and Em himself even addressed the criticism he gets for the beats, and if im the only one well I guess he’s talking to only me lol

          1. Check the production credits before saying stuff:-
            Alchemist, Andre “Briss” Brissett, D. A. Doman, Dawaun Parker, Dem Jointz, Dr. Dre, Eminem, Erik “Blu2th” Griggs, Fred, Luis Resto, Mark Batson, Mr. Porter, Ricky Racks, Royce da 5’9″, Skylar Grey, Tim Suby, Trevor Lawrence Jr.

            All these people were involved in production, so no, Eminem didn’t produce the entire album

            1. I did check the production credits, Em is on the production credit on all but like 2 songs. So he had input on almost every track. And royce said he sent em a beat and em “did his thing and added a bunch of stuff to it” then he might have done that to the rest. That Darkness beat was badass tho, I give him that one.

      2. He doesn’t really make his beats anymore. He usually has Mr Porter make them. This time around he had a few other producers on here, S1 being one of them.

      3. Yessss, Marsh, Never Love Again, Farewell, Little Engine… these could be on the MMLP all day. Pure dope, have these kids OD’ing

    7. The lack of respect for Eminem is incredible. If you’re from the USA you have the greatest of all time still at the top not stopping, living among you in this time, NOW. If you don’t like the album/some tracks that’s fine but can’t you appreciate this man and his accomplishments? I’m Scandinavian and saw him for the first time in concert in 2018. First and probably last time I’ll ever see him IRL and I’ll cherish that moment FOREVER. Was at the very front with my sis. Only a few feet from him.

      People complain about this and that, albums sucks now cause he is rapping fast setting world records and shit. The song Darkness is “very slow”. There is a mixture in this album. Calling it garbage I don’t understand, you not a fan om Eminem, fine. But the album aint trash. It’s apparant due to the exposure and attention and sells and streams its getting.

      Drake is running things cause he sells more first week? That is not strange, he is younger and has a young audience, eminem has an older audience now and some have stopped buying or let it go, but even though that is the case he still manages to transcend generations with his music. Its not not about first week sales in the end, even tough its cool to end up nr 1 on debut. Its about being the best. Drake is not a rapper he is a pop artist. And he do NOT have the skill of rap as eminem does. Wow you can’t see what’s right in front of you can you.

      You can’t keep comparing him to 2pac and “other dead bodies” neither. They are not relevant anymore. Eminem is still here.

      How is eminem overrated? You see his album sales, his albums debuing at number 1 on the billboard, the platinums, the diamonds, the fans all over the world, best selling solo artist of the 00’s. And still going strong. Lack of respect stuns me.

      Let the hate flow if you need to. I’m going to appreciate every second this man still lives. According to some you have to die young so you can say “imagine what he would’ve been if he didn’t die” status and that is always gona be better than the ones living. Same would go for Eminem, say if he died after the eminem show, people would say (to any other rapper being in his position he is in now) that “imagine if eminem didn’t die he would’ve owned them all these all others are trash and garbage and overrated”.

      Eminem, legend, rapgod. Haters gona hate.

      “eminem is garbage, drake is a better rapper. lil pump is goat etc.” Right? Drake might sell many and more albums than em, more numbers and shit but nobody will ever match eminems skills on the mic anytime soon.

        1. And the em haters are almost as worse as em stans. Hate to acknowledge greatness which em is. His fans support him and ur upset about it.

          1. First off, why are u commenting using my name? That’s just retarded. Second, I’m not upset. I believe eminem is top 5, due to the timeless classics he provided over a decade ago. Now, he is ass, and Stan’s ride his dick so hard, that they get personally offended when we say he isn’t touching what he used to. Which is undeniably true.

      1. M is a pop star just like drake. 2 pac might be dead but he is a hip hop legend. Shady is a sell out. M sells alot of records but that doesn’t make him great. The boy bands set records too but are horrible. Gang starr and black moon sold less but have better albums. Shady should sell alot records because the country is mostly white. If america was mostly black, he wouldn’t sell shit. We have higher standards for our music. M is just a rank amatuer. Steal black music and sell millions. Yeah, thats real greatest.

        1. Actually champ the country is about equal and whites are on the brink of becoming the minority lmao and 99% of the hate about Em being garbage comes from black people being racist … Ems rap credentials outshines that softy pop artist Drake …. his music isn’t bad at all it’s just as pop as it gets … Drake is modern Ja Rule

          1. It doesn’t come from black people being racist, he just makes bad music. You can check the album reviews done by non blacks. Most black people I know were Em fans at some point. His classics couldn’t be denied. But then the music just became unlistenable. Hell, I still give his albums a listen when they drop hoping it’s something there, yet I walk away disappointed every time. We have just come to accept that his music isn’t for us. Funny to hear people speak as if Em hasn’t been making pop rap too. Because all those hits were with pop stars on the hook, or he was dissing boy bands, lol. He is the pop rap icon.

        2. Lmao, who do u speak for? Black America loves Lil Pump and other trash artists. I’m an eminem hater, but quit pretending black Americans have great hiphop tastes, when in reality, MOST people of all races listen to pop radio trash, including the Obamas. Eminem is popular because he has amazing classics. He suck now, but it’s not like he got big by being a pop star. He sold out after his amazing music.

      2. It’s like 10 racist black kids in they mom’s basement, Trumpets and the media he dedicated an album of fuck you to last year. Look at anything actually playing his music, look at videos of regular people reacting to it, talk to people around the way or wait to see the sales, lol, Eminem just put out a masterpiece, same as the first 3 classics, it’s just great music and everyone knows it. People in America are dumb for sure, trash even, but they aren’t deaf, they know. It’s just that this country is falling in love with lies and strange agenda, so our media doesn’t reflect people like me with a brain, neither do these 10 kids on here waiting for mommy to heat em up another Hot Pocket. lolol

        Em’s never been better, guys on a genius roll.

      3. The truth is, Eminem will always create a divide amongst fans. People feel he is overrated because he is a skilled mc that whose career is filled with bad albums. His fans like to point out his skill level. The issue is, Eminem fans are usually Eminem fans, not hip hop fans. They think no one can rhyme as well as him. Hip Hop has always been full of guys that had elite skills but couldn’t turn that into listenable albums. At his peak he was able to, but that’s few and far between. So he’s great, but not nearly the GOAT that people proclaim him to be. This album is trash. So was the last one, the one before that, And so on. But his fan base is huge cause he’s White, just a fact. That’s cool tho. Nothing wrong with that. Just know he doesn’t resonate with most of the hip hop community

      1. Album was fire Eminem your my favorite Rapper fuck all the haters continue your talent and GodBless your family love you Congratulations on your success please speak for your people who can’t speak love you

    8. fuck you mother fuckers. son of a bitch. mother fuckers. mother fuckin peice of shit. mother fuckers. That shit sucked donkey dick. Was fuckin trash you delusional mother fuckers, Son of a bitch. Geeky nerd call off duty living in your mothers basement nerd loser mother fuckers. fuckin virgin mother fuckers;

    9. What the hell is album equalizant? How many records did he really sell? I heard the album and it’s okay at best. Why the hell is a mumble rapper on here? Mumble rappers are the scum of the rap game. Hip hop legends do not use mumble rappers. Shady is a pop star that is willing to do anything to sell records. Speaking of selling records, those buffalo kids are a no show. Why? Gresalda is too ghetto for m’s pop crowd. His white fans might be to afraid to buy this. The white fans are more important than the black ones. THE GREAT WHITE HOPE!

        1. Just my opinion if you don’t like it then move on bruh. Nobody asked for your punk ass opinion. This is comment section right.

      1. Salty much. Does it really burn you that much at how successful he is? Does it bother you when millions of black ppl completely disagree with you? You know what? Em’s fanbase really doesn’t care what ppl think that don’t like him. We will still listen to him, buy his shit and praise his abilities. Call him THE GREAT WHITE HOPE as much as you want. It changes nothing.

        1. Most blacks dont listen to m. He is to corny for blacks. His albums are weak at best. So many hip hop artists have much better records than shady. Record sales don’t mean anything if your horrible. Macklemore sold a gang of records too. He must be a goat.

          1. Speak for yourself. You don’t speak for anyone else my man. Tired of hearing this fake ass shit just cause you don’t like it. Then listen to some other trash and shut your bitch ass mouth.

            1. somebody talking ghetto on an online forum! Watch out guys! We got a real hard one here.. HAHAHAHA

          2. Tell me how your mind works? Stop living in the past get the racist shit out of your head. Damn colorism at it’s best so sad

    10. What’s with all the Drake comparisons in here? Yes it’s true that Em has fallen off if you compare his work today to when he was at his peak. But Drake has never had a peak. He has always been strictly mediocre. Don’t mistake popularity for quality. Being popular doesn’t make Drake good just like it doesn’t make Taylor Swift or Justin Bieber good either. This album is patchy. Like Kamikaze it has its moments but is not great overall. But it’s still 2 levels above anything Drake ever has or ever will release.

      1. Em has fallen off? Fallen off from what? Your taste in music I guess. Did you even listen to MTBMB? He is still at his peak you just don’t get it is all. Which is fine but fallen off? Just stop

        1. Bro most people get there opinions from the media outlets they dont think for them selves. People say EM’s music is trash yet look at the actual trash on the radio I literally cannot listen to one damn song. And yet they call eminem’smusic trash because he has bars can rap fast has lyrics sounds good punchlines that generally go over the “gangstas” heads good hooks he has it all ph but he talks about odd shit aside from the usual gang banging shit selling at the trap house that was the poison they fed to us 80 90s kids now it’s the retarted literature in the songs that poison the new generation making ya dumb there fore you get these dumb ass opinions

    11. Drake having advisors to advise him on which to write is not the same thing as your boy, dr dre handing off entire songs and production to ghost writers and producers and him putting no effort in rapping. Eminem’s probably had ghostwriters too. Plus eminem is pop and drake is hiphop and r&b

      1. Lmfao Em doesn’t use ghostwriters … that’s kind of the point of him …. And Drake has hip-hop lmfao that’s even funnier … at the most he is hip-pop … you definitely must be 12 lmfao

      2. Drake is hiphop?. I’ll have some of what you’re smoking. Drake is the most pop rapper out there. Gtf outta here. Drake d**k rider.

      3. Eminem is … Drake is…. you are retarded! hahahahaha
        Anyway, back to reality, having to watch the entire world’s collective jaw drop at this dope shit must suck if you bought into some sort of weird position where you ain’t all over the best rap album since GKMC. Too funny man.

    12. Sales should be only based on hardcopies and if Em sells 5 cd’s then let that be…and if Em sells out then let that be.

        1. Idk bout others, but I don’t ‘go out’ I buy the CD online and it conveniently comes to my mailbox. Not only am I thrilled when I get it, I do the happy dance, hold the CD in the air and make that noise like a light is shining down on it – OH and my mailbox is just as happy. It just can’t seem to do the happy dance right…yet!

      1. it that would be the case, then u can half most top artists sales for the last 10 years, eminem has most hard copies sold in hiphop all time period.

      2. Drake can’t even sing a song.He is worse singer in the world and.I thought drake was best sleeping pill of all time.

        1. who gives a fuck about what you say lol, Drake still be selling so many coppies, he can’t hear you over the sound the cash machine makes.

    13. That’s the dumbest shit I ever heard drake will never compare to Eminem.Drake is RnB pop rap …You got to be a teenager…

      1. yeah let’s talk like Eminem the “hiphop veteran” isn’t “pop” at all. Features with Rihanna, Pink, ED Sheeran and Beyonce. WOW he really likes to invite te new aspiring rappers we have today. The whole Revival album was POP and after the backlash he received he decided to be the biggest goofball and rap around 300 words in 30 seconds. Well done Em. You are now as understandable as the average “mumble rapper”

    14. Truth bomb.. MTBMB is Em’s best album. Highest level of technical skill mixed with him back to singing catchy hooks, emotional weight, storytelling and an absolute genius ‘Darkness’ better than Stan. D O P E thank god for this shit, my living room sounds right again. 😀

    15. Since he dropped this clip there has been two mass shootings.

      Its like hes baiting the feeble minded, so he has something to watch on the News / TV in his mansion.
      Then disguises the song with his insecurities sometimes to preform / stay relevant Example – “But what if nobody shows? Panic mode
      ‘Bout to snap and go motherfuckin’ wacko at any second
      ‘Bout to cancel the show”

      Em saying he too feels like he’s in the darkness sometimes, only then ramps in up again talking about – “Now it’s just magazines sprawled out on the floor
      Fuck the media, I’m goin’ all out, this is war!”

      Then to end of the clip with a “Gun control now” slogan?

      I’m confused.

      1. Hes saying its what happens to people who need help but dont know how to reach out for it so instead they take the easy way out

    16. Oh boy. It’s crazy how white people try to make this dude out to be the greatest ever. Only in white households is this dude ever mentioned as one of the greats. I’m sure he’s a cool dude but even he’s said and knows he wouldn’t be where he is or was if it wasn’t for his color. Wayyyy too many other brothers that are and were better spitters that would be considered great if they’d been white. Facts. Fuck ur feelings.

      1. U act like we care what u think lol black ppl so mad at what white ppl listen 2 like we care how u feel lmaoo.. were gonna bump eminem now and after hes gone. Accept it or kill urself. Noone will miss u

      2. Its funny how blacks disrespect eminem bruh give him his props he is sick and no matter how much trashy songs he has he has 10 number one albums and with this one its 11 also there are lyrical black rappers out there but they go on and fuck there carriers of but em has destroyed every black rapper that thought they were even close to being great like him also the race thing tone it down dawg im hispanic and bump eminem and whit or black or brown that fucker is the greatest lyrical emc since big l pac biggie common mos def. He is up there with them even at the age of 49 he is still smashing give him his respect and stop crying with all that hater shit boy boy…..

      3. Hey, racist, ignorant, fuckhead. Go to Eminem’s wiki page and check out the list of all of the artists who rate him as a great. Many of which are black rappers. You small minded moron.

      4. Thanks for speaking the pure unadulterated truth.. Em means a lot to whites.. lol it’s funny he’s completely a non factor to black and latino rap fans.. wigga rap is for wiggas only.. they should paint their faces.. lol lol lol

    17. Wow! I shouldn’t be surprised yet here I am. This many people like this album!? ?. Em is one of the most skilled mcs ever, but also one of the most overrated because he has made so much awful music. This album is straight trash! His career is primarily bad music. I’m laughing at all all the Drake comparisons. Of course Drake can’t out rap him….. but his track record is much better. Drakes album are better, period. And I come from Em’s generation, but the man is a waste of talent. But hey, at least some people out there still like it I guess.

      1. What’s bad about his music? Just because it doesn’t resonate with you it doesn’t mean other people cant relate. Music doesnt always about getting stupid drunk.

    18. The industry is trying to get rid of everyone who is lyrical… Hence why all the new guys can’t speak english “migos” amongst like 20 other new guys just are straight trash. Actually it reduces the IQ of the people drastically. Drake has all the little girls buying his shit its kinda of like a justin bieber thing really.. guy does not write his own music he should getno props at all yet all I see is praise? Fakepeople like fake music and he probley cheats the system with that bullshit spotify online sales bullshit how many hardcovers does he sell probley fuck all

    19. Gna replay 7 of the 18 songs over and over. That Godzilla hook doesnt leave your head. Stepdad tracks are wierdo. Better than Revival. Thats all we can ask.

    20. Just stop it… the changes to how they count sales, etc. is different now…no one is selling record amounts of music now…FOH!

      1. Yeah EXACTLY dickhead.. NOBODY is.. not because all artists are TRASH.. because The climate has CHANGED.. I havnt bought an album since banks dropped THFM.. now people are streaming.. so what do you do? You need a new stick to remeasure “sales”

        We are all streaming… and it looks like a Large portion of people are streaming Eminem so fuck out of here, and get a job you bum lol

    21. So heres some knowledge for the youngin that the previous generations never realise.. history always repeats itself, When I was young and Pac was coming up, Jay was coming up, Nas etc etc I could go on.. there were major arguments about them being trash and why there music is so good… its always been there, do you think when Illmatic dropped the hood went crazy? Lmao believe me, they aint.. what matters is the amount you discuss an artist, and while I hope on this once a while because my son fucks with hip hop and is making music today… i can see that Eminem gets the most comments and buzz.. trust me even though sometime black people cant relate to his content, he is a living legend and it will only be said when he passes.

      1. I’m probably from the same era but I have to disagree with you on the Nas point. When illmatic dropped people went crazy. You got to remember that Nas was featured on Live at the Barbecue to the anticipation was big.

    22. Eminem’s rap style : wigga rap or wigga-hop should be put in its own category.. since whites have elected him as their top artist.. it’s only fitting that they be given a chart to reflect their particular taste in music.. boom bap, gangster rap, trap, edm, dancehall, etc .. now Em and D12 aka Beavis and the Buttheads are wigga rap legends lol

      1. Every album dude has ever put out premiered at #1. That must make you sad for some reason. You live in a country with a mixture of races, with the majority being white, who made Hip-Hop the number one art form by buying it and going to shows etc. you’re an ignorant moron. I guess all of your problems and shortcomings are someone else’s fault.

        1. I didn’t even read your bullshit.. I said he’s wack.. he’s the best white rapper if you want to crown his red neck ass that.. go ahead crown his ass then. But for black and latino artists and fans.. he’s comical wigga whiteboy rap about raping animals and trailer parks.. which is probably relevant to those peckheads who populate the trailer parks of the Midwest rust belt.. a crack head??? A chomo??? Come on man this shit is hilarious.. Em trying to rap like the young mumble rappers.. hilarious.. just set your dumb asses up.. #clowns

          1. I’m a Latino moron. Are you a ventriloquist? You seem to be speaking for other people pretty well. So Chuck D, Nas, JAY-Z, Kendrick Lamar, master Ace, big daddy Kane, rock him. So Chuck D, Nas, JAY-Z, Kendrick Lamar, master Ace, big daddy Kane, Rakim. They’re all black. There are countless interviews with all of them being asked to the top five MC’s of all time are, all of them drop Eminem’s name. I’m guessing reality and facts aren’t things you want to deal with? Your manager at Arby’s is white and tries to talk hip-hop to you, and you have to take it? LOL. Let me guess, you’re .005% black and drop N bombs around white folks, but STFU around real black people. LOL. LEGENDS say Eminem is top 5. You should have just typed I DONT READ. LoL. Left it at that. Hahahahaha

      2. Who cares what color he is and anyone is for that matter. Listen if you like. and if you dont like dont listen.

    23. M wouldn’t be this popular if he was black even he said that. White people love to overhype shady. M is just copying great black mcs. Most whites don’t listen to hip hop. White people see a white pop rapper and go crazy. White fans don’t care that blacks are the originators for many reasons. How can u judge shady if whites dont listen to the all time black and white mcs. Imo, shady had to leave hip hop because his records are not good hip hop records or classics. Lyrics alone don’t make a classic record. Dr.dre produced full albums for snoop, easy e, doc, above the law, nwa and both dre albums. Why is shady’s album? Pop fans love watered music. Dr.dre only does bangaz or used to.

      1. You are very racist and ignorant. Congratulations. I’m guessing you walk down the street looking at folk like “he’s black, he listens to this for this reason, there’s a white guy, he listens to that for said reason. Not sure about this mixed looking dude.” I bet you hate racism and blame a bunch of your problems on racism. LOL. You realize YOU’RE the racist, right? Dumbass. White people listen to everything. Hip-hop is the #1 form of music in the US. It has been for over 15 years. 13% of the populous didn’t make it that way. Shut your stupid ass up. Em came out of the Hip-hop olympics where he smoked other rappers of all races. The judges were predominantly black. SMH. Back then white rappers didn’t really exist.

      2. When i listen to music I could care less if the person was the color orange with a purple @ss. Color has no bearing what so ever. If i like the music, I like the music. If i don’t, i don’t. who cares what race em is, he’s nice and makes dope songs. so did biggie, so does jay-z. what does color have to with any of this. It’s 2020 not 1864.

      3. Thanks for speaking some hard truths to these wigga hop dick riders.. what happened to whites who listen to country, hard rock, soft rock, punk and folk music??? Y’all ain’t built for hip hop and it’s not your faults.. it’s as simple as black and white.. Em is a turd.. you whites think he’s the shit.. go wipe your white ass.. all of you wigga hoppers stink!

    24. Em is easily top 10 dead or alive. Here is a list of rappers (Mainly Black) who consider him One of the greatest ever: Rappers David Banner, Tech N9ne, Hopsin, G-Eazy,Boosie Badazz, Wiz Khalifa, Kevin Gates, Slim the Mobster, Drake, 50 Cent, Talib Kweli, Kool G. Rap, Charles Hamilton, King Los, Logic, J.

LOL. GUESS WHAT RACE 90% OF THOSE ON THE LIST ARE?

      1. So… Rakim, BDK, Chuck D, Nas, Jay Z, Dre, Cube and Kool G Rap, Masta Ace, Busta Rhymes… I’ll take their opinions over the weirdo racist black dudes on here, Lord Jamar and Drake fans any day of the week. LOL

        1. That’s a list of artists who proclaimed Em as top 5 ever. I didn’t even know who preacher was. I googled “Phresher Eminem.” There is an interview where he says he has written for tons of people, never Eminem, and he considers Em the goat for never using ghost writers. LoL. Nothing on BDK, Chuck D or Rakim saying the same, right? LOL. You know more… the subway sandwich artist named “kaz”, real name Chet Clazinski. Hahahahahahaha

    25. Eminem is def on my top 5 rappers list. Or should i say my favorite rappers list. My opinion that’s all. Here’s my list in no special order. This is based off which artist albums I enjoy listening to the most.

      1) Jay-Z
      2) Redman
      3) Eminem
      4) Notorious BIG
      5) Lil Wayne

      **Honorable Mention: Black Thought & Wu-Tang as a collective.

    26. Are we going to get him on interviews for this project? Been over a week haven’t seen any podcasts or interviews of him on this album

    27. But I read billboard today and billboard stated Eminem’s album is at number 3. I don’t like lying. Sad how so many sites are just basically press releases. Same re. M1naj. She did visit bro in prison and did pay lots of money to help him and I swear I read news Long ago she Was in court testifying. Bizarre how news is like George 0rwell’s book1984.

      1. Look “Kaz” LOL. We get it. Reading isn’t your strong point. The article begins with… Eminem has reportedly set a new Billboard 200 record. According to Billboard, Em’s 11th studio album Music To Be Murdered By has made its debut at No. 1, making Shady the first artist to earn 10 consecutive No. 1 albums in the chart’s history. He was previously tied with Kanye West at nine.” LET THAT SOAK IN A MINUTE.

    28. Tried to reply to long long list of “black rappers who say Eminem is great” I don’t care about the list. U think musicians can afford to get cancelled by Eminem Stan’s? & U need logical argument not “here’s a list of Eminem’s black friends, look he has black friends” smh

      1. Rakim and BDK are getting cancelled? LOL. Chuck D? Hahahahaha. Yeah, they’re all over the pop charts, huh?some real ones have got this bro. Just take the L and STFU. Hahahahaha

      2. Those are all legendary MC’s, some of them aren’t his friends and have never worked with him. Lots of them don’t put out new shit. Ie Rakim, Big Daddy Kane. Kool G. They were all interviewed indipemdemtly about the greatest rappers ever. They all listed Em. FUCK FACTS AND LEGENDS, right? Hahahahaha. Clown. You’ve lost. You’re hillshit argument isn’t flying buddy. Just take the loss. Facts are irrefutable. Look that word up.

    29. Here’s an analogy – Elvis had a long list of black musician friends. Don’t mean he was greatest soul singer does it?! To this day literally the only black musician who has spoken truth publicly about Elvis Chuck D who said “he never meant shit to me”. Elvis & Eminem may hav long long list of black friends & supporters but idgaf. He’s wack. Same how vanilla ice got to number one.

        1. Yeah, big daddy Kane, Rakim, Nas, Kendrick can’t stand it either because they’re… wait. I’m confused. LOL

      1. Only CHUCK D HIMSELF listed Em as top 5 ever. LOLOLOLOL. You might as well compare Jusse Somellet to Nernie Sanders. That makes about as much sense. It’s tea easy to tell who didn’t get their GED on here. LOL. Who brought up Elvis? Is he Hip-Hop?

    30. I work at a Subway sandwich shop. I get mad every time someone asks for white bread. My manager who is white, talks to me about rap all the time and I can’t stand it. I don’t care about what Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, Nas, Jay Z and Kendrick Lamar have to say. I’m going to use the rhetoric of.. if they say they don’t like Em they’re cancelled. Even though the same question wa posed to KRS and he didn’t list Em, he is equally cancelled, right? Em fans can cancel Jay-Z who has more Money than Em and owns his own label, somehow. Anyways, when you order your sub, don’t ask for white meat. I’ll lose it. Sincerely… Kaz. P.s. I can’t read.

      1. Yo! This is the real Kaz. That’s all bullshit. I don’t work at Subway. I hate white people using rap. Black people invented it. I don’t care if they pay to play. White people im wanted the internet, the computer, the smartphone and electricity. We shouldn’t use that shit even if we pay because they invented it. All wigga hops using the internet. Only 65% of the populous support that shit… Oh wait. I’m a racist hypocrite moron that doesn’t realize we all use inventions by other cultures as humans every day… huh? Jackass.

        1. Keep it up.. I love it.. my point is proven though.. a 50+ year old white man is trying to rap like young black artists.. that’s #priceless.. Em stole his rap persona from #beavisandbutthead .. no wonder white wigga hoppers love it.. some things are simply black and white.. white meaning wack and black meaning authentic hip hop music.. I think the Chain Smokers are the best example of white artistic expression.. you peccadillos should stick to your own lane.. stop all of the black dick riding.. Em should be doing an album with his real dad.. wack rap yodeler kid ( coke head / alcoholic) rock..

          1. So… black people should use electricity or be on the internet. They should t play basketball or football? They didn’t invent any of that. They should stick to their own lane. LOL. I’m a LATINO, you racist idiot. I’ve spent half my life in a 3rd word country? While you live in some suburb blaming racism that is in your mind for you being a loser. LOL. You have proven the point. Dude has the most #1 releases of all time for a Hip-Hop artist, was put out and CO signed by Dre, and is in more legendary MC’s top 5 lists than anyone other than Biggie and Pac. I was always a fan of Brand Nubian. I actually saw them play the Paladium in L.A. when In God We Trust came out. Jamar was always the weakest link of that group. LOL. Your in over your head dummy. I know more about Hip-Hop than you do, clearly. You’re deflecting your invalid arguments to shut that has nothing to do with your invalid point. LOL. This obviously reflects a lot OM where your life is at.

      2. BRAND NUBIAN: dedicated to Em and all wigga hoppers “ PUNKS JUMP UP TO GET BEAT DOWN” trump, em, skinheads, kkk, breitbart, skinheads, white nationalism it’s all the same energy.. keep saying that black people can’t read.. lol it’s funny.. you expose yourselves.. you cowards.. keep searching for your great white hope.. because so far this dope fiend is nothing but the great white nope.. if you’re white do like Eminem and find a black man to write it for you.. or shut the fuck up.. all that lame trailer park bullshit is corny..

        1. No buddy. I said YOU can’t read. This isn’t about race. You’re the racist here LOL. Some of the smartest people I’ve ever met are black, ones who went to college with me come to mind. YOU are the racist here dummy. You’re using racial slurs, and trying to pivot the Argument into some shit that strayed from your first invalid point. You said only “wiggas” listen to Eminem. So BDK, Rakim, Masta Ace, Kool G, Lendeick are all wiggas in your weirdo racist eyes. LOL. I’m a Latino, BTW. I have always voted democrat. LOL. Someone said YOU can’t read, and you go off on some skinhead Trump bullshit because you’re a dummy. Again, blaming EVERYONE ELSE for your shortcomings. I’m guessing you’re a white kid form Canada that did a DNA test and came back %2 Algerian or some shit. KEEP AMERICA RACIST, dipshit. I won’t.

        2. Hmmm. The most record sold out of any Hip-Hop artist ever. The most consecutive #1 releases. The most top 5 rated hip hop MC of all time when rates by the greatest rappers ever. LOL. Your counter argument is… He’s white. Hahahahaha. You’re really intelligent, moron.

    31. Kaz is a white guy from Canada who did an ancestry DNA test that came back as 2% Nigerian. He is now dropping N bombs, selling Bean Pies and hating the white man. His main hatred towards white Americans is that they always argue that Eminem is better than his hero Drake. I know all of this because I work with dude here at the subway sandwich shop in Saskatchewan.

      1. You’re less than dirt to me redneck..you think that you can yell, insult or force this crackhead peccadilloes lame ass rap wackness on me and others who neither respect or can stand to listen to it.. wickety wack trailer park scum… Macklemore was the greatest for a whole 3 days.. Now peckheads are putting needles in their arms arms running through the streets hollering about this pathetic dope fiend being the best.. SHUT THE FUCK UP.. just keeping it real.. I hate to say this but it’s just so true: if you were born white you pretty much were born with everything necessary to fail at being a true factor in hip hop.. since the first qualifier is rhythm filled by the gift to rhyme.. there are many facets and genres of hip hop.. Eminem has mastered a watered down vastly dated, drug fueled perversion of rap called wigga hop.. Phresher over there giving Em wack lyrics like bad dope.. he’s got this guy looking like an old mule who should put out to pasture.

    32. An article about how he’s the first artist to earn 10 consecutive No. 1 albums in the chart’s history.. and you still have a comment section full of butthurt people screaming how bad he sucks. Lmfao hold this L. You haters are worse than Stans. Keep crying.
