Eminem has once again taken the top spot on the UK YouTube Artist Chart, proving his staying power—even without dropping new material. The rap icon jumped from No. 3 to No. 1 during the week of March 21–27, 2025, overtaking strong contenders like Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars.
Despite recent surges from both Gaga and Bruno following new releases, their initial spikes are beginning to settle. Eminem’s numbers, on the other hand, remain impressively consistent. His loyal fanbase and steady stream of views helped him climb to 4.35 million weekly views, outpacing Gaga’s 4.21 million and Bruno’s 4.20 million.
It’s a tight race at the top—less than 150,000 views separate the top three—but Eminem’s lead appears solid for now. His dominance doesn’t seem to rely on trends or timing. Whether there’s a new album or not, his catalog continues to attract millions of views week after week.
Elsewhere on the chart, Taylor Swift and The Weeknd hold down the No. 4 and No. 5 spots, respectively, but trail behind the top three by a wide margin—each pulling in under 3 million views. Meanwhile, Playboi Carti, who briefly cracked the Top 5, saw a dramatic drop to No. 24.

With no major new releases expected to shake things up in the coming weeks, Eminem looks poised to hold onto the crown a little longer—just as he has many times before.
