Eminem, in tandem with his long-standing musical partner, secures multiple new chart-topping entries.
In 2024, Eminem spent a significant amount of time promoting his latest album, "The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)," which was released in July. This album was a worldwide success and gave Eminem another No. 1 title in various countries. Despite the excitement, the album's popularity didn't last long, and it seems Eminem has mostly stopped promoting it.
Recently, Eminem has been featuring on a few tracks by other artists. He's back on the charts this week, sharing the spotlight with two other popular hip-hop artists, including a close collaborator and a long-term friend.
Eminem collaborates with Snoop Dogg on the track "Gunz N Smoke," which is part of Snoop Dogg's new album "Missionary," released in mid-December. The track hasn't been selected as a single, but the presence of Eminem and 50 Cent was enough to turn it into a hit.
"Gunz N Smoke" debuts on two Billboard charts this week, and it lands in the same position on both of them. This collaborative effort launches at No. 4 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales and Rap Digital Song Sales rankings, which focus on the bestselling titles in those styles in the U.S.
Eminem has surpassed 100 hits on both of those charts with "Guns N Smoke." This is his sixty-eighth time reaching the highest tier on the Rap Digital Song Sales chart. He's also made 76 appearances between Nos. 1 and 10 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales ranking, including this latest smash.
Snoop Dogg achieves two milestones with "Guns N Smoke." This is his twelfth top 10 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales chart, and his fifteenth on the Rap Digital Song Sales list. 50 Cent, also known as Curtis Jackson, may not have as many wins as his collaborators, but he's still racking them up, decades into his career. "Guns N Smoke" brings him to the top 10 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales list for the ninth time, and it's his eleventh top 10 smash on the rap-only roster.
Eminem's 2024 has been quite busy on these charts, with the tracks from his new album performing well on genre-specific tallies. He has now earned seven new top 10 hits on the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales ranking in this calendar year alone. His sum on the Rap Digital Song Sales list is even more impressive, as he's added nine wins to his career count in just the past few months.
Eminem and 50 Cent's collaboration on Snoop Dogg's track "Gunz N Smoke" is reminiscent of their past collaborations, contributing to its success on the charts. The new single has secured a spot on both the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales and Rap Digital Song Sales charts, marking Eminem's 100th hit on both charts.
In 2024, Eminem's new music is making waves on the Billboard charts, not just from his latest album, but also from collaborations with fellow hip-hop artists. His new single, like his previous hits, is expected to make a significant impact on the charts, following the success of "Gunz N Smoke."
Fans of Eminem and Snoop Dogg are eagerly awaiting the release of their new music, as their collaboration on "Gunz N Smoke" has received positive reviews and high chart positions. Snoop Dogg and Eminem, along with 50 Cent, have a history of successful collaborations, and "Gunz N Smoke" is no exception.
The success of "Gunz N Smoke" on the charts has fueled speculation about future collaborations between Eminem, Snoop Dogg, and 50 Cent. Fans are hoping for another chart-topping hit from the three hip-hop legends, and with their proven track record, it's certainly a possibility.
Eminem and Snoop Dogg's collaboration on "Gunz N Smoke" has not only propelled the track to the top of the charts but has also reignited interest in Eminem's music, with fans eagerly awaiting his next new single and album release in 2024.
