The Eminem Show remains one of Em's most commercially successful projects to date. The album has been certified diamond by the RIAA and within its second week of sales, it had moved 1.3M. Globally, the album's sold over 27M copies. The Eminem Show also won Best Rap Album at the Grammys.

The announcement of Eminem's 20th-anniversary re-release comes weeks after the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame revealed that the Detroit rapper would be inducted with the 2022 class. While this caused an uproar among a few of his adversaries, people like Royce Da 5'9", and others celebrated the massive accomplishment.

Earlier this year, Eminem hit the stage at the Super Bowl alongside Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg for the half-time show. The rapper performed a portion of "Forgot About Dre" before jumping into "Lose Yourself."
