Grammy-winning rapper Eminem really can’t lose these days. After putting out a monstrous chart-topping Kamikaze surprise album, Slim Shady’s “Killshot” has hit the Billboard Hot 100.
According to reports, Em’s Machine Gun Kelly-targeted battle record is a Top 5 smash.
Eminem has proven as much with “Killshot,” his scorching new Machine Gun Kelly diss track that debuts at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week. The diss track also launches atop the Digital Song Sales chart, Eminem’s first song to do so since his Rihanna collaboration “The Monster” in 2013. “Killshot” marks Eminem’s 10th Digital Song Sales chart-topper, tying him with Drake for the most among male artists.
