Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” Reaches No.1 on Billboard Chart 10 Years Later
Decades after its initial release, Eminem’s iconic track “Lose Yourself” has achieved a new milestone by reaching the No. 1 spot on the Rap Digital Song Sales chart. This feat comes after the song spent an impressive 515 weeks on the chart, marking nearly a decade of consistent popularity. Despite its long-standing success, “Lose Yourself” had never claimed the top position until now, making this achievement a significant victory for the timeless bestseller.
Outperforming all other tracks on this week’s chart with its unparalleled tenure, “Lose Yourself” has surpassed the combined number of weeks spent by all the other top-selling rap songs currently listed. This week, the track made a remarkable ascent from the sixth position to claim the coveted first spot, solidifying its enduring appeal and relevance.
Notably, this achievement marks Eminem’s first No. 1 hit of 2025, adding to his impressive collection of chart-topping singles. With 19 No. 1 hits on the Rap Digital Song Sales chart, Eminem continues to prove his immense influence and staying power in the music industry. Joining the ranks of his other acclaimed tracks like “Love the Way You Lie,” “Godzilla,” “Rap God,” and more, “Lose Yourself” stands as a testament to Eminem’s enduring legacy and continued success.
In addition to its recent triumph on the Rap Digital Song Sales chart, “Lose Yourself” has also secured a spot at No. 10 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales chart. Furthermore, another Eminem classic, “Shake That” featuring Nate Dogg, has made a triumphant return to the Rap chart at No. 10, further solidifying Eminem’s place as a dominant force in the music industry.
In a surprising turn of events, Eminem has made his debut appearance on two other Billboard charts this week with a live mashup performance alongside Jack White. Their collaboration, “Hello Operator / Till I Collapse (Live at Ford Field),” has earned positions at No. 6 on the Alternative Digital Song Sales chart and No. 13 on the Rock Digital Song Sales chart. This marks Eminem’s first entry on both genre-specific lists, highlighting his versatility and ability to transcend genre boundaries with his music.
Overall, Eminem’s latest achievement with “Lose Yourself” showcases the enduring appeal and impact of one of the most iconic tracks in music history. As the song continues to captivate audiences and break new ground, Eminem’s legacy as a pioneering artist in the industry remains firmly intact, solidifying his status as a living legend in the world of music.
