MGK shares a fake list of rappers with the most streams in 2021.
Machine Gun Kelly recently shared a list of his social media, which showed him among the top 10 rappers with the most streams across all platforms in 2021. MGK boasts about being on the Top 10 list, which doesn’t feature Eminem. But, MGK was clowned by the fans as the list turned out to be fake. According to Spotify data last month, Eminem was at number 10 with 943 million streams in 2021 on Spotify alone and he doesn’t even appear in MGK’s fake list, where the number 10th rapper NF has 586 million streams.

#4 @BTS_twt 1.4B
#5 @Drake 1.34B
#6 @justinbieber 1.2B
#7 @JBALVIN 1.18B
#8 @myketowerspr 1.08B
#9 @POPSMOKE10 975M
#10 @Eminem 943M— Spotify Daily Data (@spotify_data) March 14, 2021
Eminem has amassed over 1.2 billion streams since the beginning of the year. On March 20, we revealed that Marshall had reached the billion-dollar mark. Other artists’ numbers are likewise horribly incorrect on this list. For example, it nearly doubles Drake’s numbers to 2 billion, which would be impossible to achieve in two weeks beginning at 1.3 billion. Juice WRLD has 1.52 billion streams in 2021, according to the false, which is even less than he had in mid-March. Juice WRLD’s streaming stats are continuously strong, therefore he’s definitely far closer to 2 billion than Drake. With 1.5 billion, Lil Baby is on the list. Simply put, no. This year, he has yet to surpass 1 billion streams.
To believe that MGK will enter any excellent quality top 10 before Eminem requires a special type of delusion. The fact that Eminem isn’t on this list only goes to show how phoney it is. And the quickness with which MGK grabbed the bait suggests that he was the chosen target. With any event, the list was shared on Instagram on April 1, a day when the Internet was awash in cheesy jokes. Some knuckleheads who can’t read numbers and have trouble judging reality were duped.
It’s amusing how Machine Gun still considers him a rapper, as he himself admitted that his beef with Eminem made him switch genre to Pop Punk. “As a hip-hop album [Hotel Diablo], it’s flawless front to back, and also a hint at the evolution of how I went into a pop-punk album. But it was coming off the tail-end of that infamous beef [with Eminem]. So no one wanted to give it the time of day. It’s like if you make a shi**y movie and then you come out with a great movie right after, but people want to focus on the fact that they hated whatever you just did. What I did in the beef was exactly what it should be, but that project wasn’t welcomed,” says MGK in his interview with Interview Magazine.
Slipknot fans are dragging Machine Gun Kelly on social media after MGK made remarks against the metal band at Riot Fest over the weekend. Before performing his song “Jawbreaker,” MGK appeared to have dissed the rock band. “Hey, you wanna know what I’m really happy that I’m not doing? Being 50 years old wearing a f**kin’ weird mask on a f**king stage, talkin’ sh*t,” he told the crowd. “So anyway, what’s everyone’s favorite candy? Reese’s Pieces?”
Others are hoping for a collaboration between Slipknot and Eminem to create a diss tune directed at MGK. “So does this mean we’ll get an #Eminem and #Slipknot collab for an MGK diss track? [Laughing emoji] they’re about to make him leave another genre, get ready for Country Kelly [Laughing emoji],” tweeted one person.
