‘Without Me’ which appeared on Eminem’s fourth album ‘The Eminem Show’, features the rapper and Dr. Dre as superheroes trying to stop a young boy from listening to The Eminem Show due to the parental advisory sticker.
The project went on to become the best-selling album and has since been certified Diamond. The album bagged three nominations at the 2003 GRAMMYs including – Album of the Year, Best Rap Album, and Best Music Video.
This isn’t the first time Eminem has smashed one billion views. Last month, his Academy Award-winning track ‘Lose Yourself’ became the first hip-hop song from the 2000s to hit 1 billion views, followed by 2013’s ‘Rap God’ which not only hit 1 billion views on YouTube but also landed him in the Guinness Book of World Records for the most words in a hit single.
