Started his rap career as a battle rapper in the early 90s, Eminem is now one of the top hip-hop artists in the world. Over the past two decades, Marshall Mathers has been among the highest-paid rap artists, and he has earned more than $420 million in his career before taxes and lifestyle costs.

The rapper followed the success with another album in 2000, “The Marshall Mathers LP”, which sold over 1.76 million copies in its first week, which is a record for the fastest-selling rap solo album in the United States.
