Eminem’s ‘The Real Slim Shady’ Hits 1 Billion YouTube Views After 14 Years

Eminem’s legendary track, “The Real Slim Shady,” has officially surpassed 1 billion views on YouTube. Uploaded 14 years ago, the music video’s popularity continues nearly 25 years after the song’s initial release. Known for its wild visuals, the video showcases the Detroit rapper in various outrageous settings, including a mental health facility, superhero antics, and memorable pop culture call-outs, like his portrayal of Britney Spears.

Directed by Philip G. Atwell and Dr. Dre, the video perfectly matches Eminem’s irreverent lyrics, making iconic scenes out of lines like the “Dr. Dre’s dead” joke, which features a humorous milk carton reference. Released in 2000 as part of The Marshall Mathers LP, “The Real Slim Shady” climbed to No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100. This track is one of several Eminem hits that have reached the 1 billion milestone, joining classics like “Without Me,” “Mockingbird,” and “Lose Yourself.”

Eminem’s recent project, The Death of Slim Shady, proves his continued relevance. With the lead single “Houdini” channeling his early 2000s persona through AI-powered visuals, the hip-hop legend keeps his Y2K greatness alive while connecting with new and longtime fans alike.
