Eminem's popularity on Spotify can be attributed to his large and dedicated fan base, as well as the enduring popularity of his music. His albums, such as "The Marshall Mathers LP," "The Eminem Show," and "Recovery," have achieved tremendous success and continue to be streamed extensively.
However, it's worth noting that Eminem has a massive fan base worldwide, and his popularity on Spotify has been consistently high. It's possible that he has accumulated over 70 million followers on Spotify since then, but I recommend checking the official Spotify platform or reliable sources for the most up-to-date information on Eminem's current follower count.
Eminem hit the next significant milestone as a Spotify artist rounding the number of his followers up to 70 million.
Marshall remains the eighth most followed artist and the second most followed rapper on the platform. Drake, who is ranked higher, has moved down to No.5 over recent years. Considering that Marshall is currently gaining more followers than any other rapper, consistently being in the Top 5 gainers across all genres, and Drake is nowhere to be seen on the list, we can only assume that the gap between them will get even smaller soon.
