Eminem
One of the most known names in the rap game across the globe, Marshal Bruce Mathers III, or as the world knows him, Eminem, has not stopped proving why he is at the top of the rapping scene. He started releasing music in the 90s and achieved mainstream popularity when he put out his album, The Slim Shady LP, in 1997. The American rapper is considered one of the best-selling musicians of all time, selling more than 220 million records.
Eminem continues to be a force in the music industry and is praised for his influence in the rap and hip-hop genre. He is credited as the only artist to have seven albums reach 1 billion streams on the world’s most famous music streaming platform, Spotify. Last year, he dropped a surprise album called Music to Be Murdered By, and after more than two decades in the music industry, he still managed to debut number one on the Billboard 200. Another surprise he did last year was his appearance in the Oscars, where he performed Lose Yourself, a song for his famous film 8 Mile.
