Eminem Dethrones Taylor Swift to Claim the Number One Album in the Country


Eminem's "The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce)" debuted at Number One on Billboard's album chart, ending Taylor Swift's 12-week run at the top.

Eminem ‘s The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce) is officially the Number One album in the country, Billboard confirmed on Sunday, dethroning Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department after a 12-week reign atop the charts. Beating out TTPD is a feat several other stars including Bryan, Billie Eilish, Megan Thee Stallion, and Charli XCX have been unable to do since Swift’s album first released in April. Swift, perhaps foreseeing the end of her Number One streak, thanked fans on social media Saturday for the run, writing that “I also wanted to say to everyone who’s supported The Tortured Poets Department, I am completely blown away by what you’ve done – it stayed at #1 for the first 12 weeks of its release and that’s never happened to an album of mine before, not even close!!
