The rapper revealed on social media that it is a \u201cconceptual album,\u201d and that \u201cif the songs are listened to out of order, they might not make sense.\u201d It tells the story of Eminem\u2019s alter ego, calling out Gen Z, cancel culture, pronoun usage, and more in true Slim Shady style. It also contains many references and similarities to his older music, including many mentions of Christopher Reeve, who Eminem has now dissed 44 times in his career. This album took the music industry by storm, quickly becoming a favorite, with the most played song being <em>Houdini<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">In second place is <strong><em>Kamikaze<\/em><\/strong>, with an average daily play count of <strong>119,496 <\/strong>per song.

Like most of Eminem\u2019s work, the album generated some controversy, particularly with tracks like <em>Darkness<\/em>, which delved into gun violence and the Las Vegas shooting. The track <em>Godzilla<\/em>, which broke the record for Eminem\u2019s fastest rap verse, is the most played song.
