Eminem Top 10 – by the Numbers

On the heels of Eminem‘s appearance at the Super Bowl Half-Time Show, we’re bringing you Eminem’s Top 10 by the Numbers.

Hitting the scene hard when he first appeared in 1988, Marshall Mathers has continued to wow with his unique lyrical content.

There have been feuds and controversy, but the bottom line is that Eminem’s distinctive sound has made its mark on music.

”Eminem gets a pass in the same vein that back during segregation black folks had to be better than average, had to be the best, to be accepted […] he is better than the best. In his own way, he is the best lyricist, alliterator and enunciator out there in hip-hop music. In terms of rapping about the pain that other disenfranchised people feel, there is no one better at their game than Eminem.” – Lynette Holloway*

Having sold over 220 million records, Eminem is one of the best-selling music artists of all time. He’s released eleven studio albums and done three collaboration albums. In addition, he’s done five headlining tours and co-headlined four more.  Love him or hate him; you can’t ignore him.

Number one was a bit of a surprise for me, but when you duet with Rhianna, you’re going to get a lot of attention. It’s a great track, and it deserves to be at the top of this list.

Scroll through the list, hit play on any or all of the songs you love and enjoy. And then you could leave us a comment letting us know which songs you love best, which song missed our list that you think should be here, or which songs are in your personal Top 10. Of course, if Eminem isn’t for you, let us know that too. But, let’s all be respectful.

Even if his music isn’t for you, the man is a legend.
