It's hard to be a rapper in your 40s, let alone your 50s.
But so far so good for Eminem, who will soon drop his first album since hitting the big 5-0.
The first single from The Death Of Slim Shady, "Houdini," opened at number 2 and would have opened number one most weeks.
The 51-year-old has also passed Drake for the most monthly listeners on Spotify, despite this being the best streaming year of Drizzy's illustrious career.
Eminem is now the rapper with the most monthly listeners on Spotify, overtaking Drake (80.2m) 🔥🏆
