Eminem Receives BRIT Billion Award.

Eminem has received yet another milestone, this time he receives the BRIT Billion Award for his latest album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce) and its introductory single, Houdini,

Em has reached a whopping seven billion streams in the UK, as recorded by the Official Charts Company.

The Detroit Native is the current holder of the record for the most consecutive Number 1s on the Official Albums Chart with 10 studio albums consecutively topping the Official Albums Chart.

June’s ‘Houdini’ marked Eminem’s 11th UK Number 1, and his 12th studio album, ‘The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)’ is Shady’s 11th No.1 Album in the UK (including the greatest hits compilation ‘Curtain Call’).

More than 60 of Eminem’s songs have been BRIT Certified, including 15 certified Multi-Platinum.

His top three hits on streaming services are ‘Without Me’, ‘Lose Yourself’ and ‘Love The Way You Lie’ featuring Rihanna – having gained 770 million streams in the UK alone.

The likes of Green Day, The Rolling Stones, Queen, ABBA, and Whitney Houston have BRIT Billion Awards.

The BRIT Billion award, like the BRIT Certified scheme and its iconic Platinum, Silver and Gold tiers, is verified using Official Charts data, and is the first time in the scheme’s five-decade history that an artist’s combined success across multiple projects has been recognised. The one billion career total includes tracks an artist has appeared on either as the principal performer or as a featured artist, as credited by the Official Charts.
