Eminem On Top On Billboard 200 With New Album, Swift Slips To Fourth

Rap icon Eminem has grabbed top spot on the billboard 200 defeating Taylor Swift who has been on top of the list since the release of ‘The Tortured Poets Department’.

Rapper has snatched the top position from singer and songwriter Swift owing to his 12th album ‘The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grace)’.

Eminem’s 12th album, “The Death of Slim Shady,” debuted at the top of the all-genre chart in the US with the equivalent of 281,000 album units.

It also records 220 million streams and 114,000 sales, according to Variety; Luminate provided the statistics. Eminem originally revealed the album during the NFL Draft in April. He also wrote an obituary for Slim Shady, his long-running persona that he has portrayed in music videos and songs, in the Detroit Free Press.

Eminem’s first album since “Music to Be Murdered By,” which was released in January 2020, is the LP. Eminem’s eleventh album to debut at number one, “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grace),” ties him with Bruce Springsteen, Barbra Streisand, and Ye (Kanye West).

Meanwhile, Swift’s ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ remained on number 1 for record breaking 12 weeks after slipping to 12.
