Eminem, Curtain Call 2 returns to Germany’s album charts

Eminem remains a constant presence in Germany’s rap landscape. According to Germany’s Official Album Charts published by GfK Entertainment, his compilation Curtain Call 2 has re-entered the chart at No. 87, reflecting sustained demand for his catalog among German listeners.

How Eminem is performing on the charts

Germany’s Official Charts show that Curtain Call 2 returned to the albums ranking at No. 87, a notable achievement for a compilation more than a year after its original release. The listing confirms that German audiences continue to stream and purchase Eminem’s work in significant numbers.

This latest entry adds to a long chart history in Germany, where Eminem’s earlier compilation Curtain Call: The Hits and studio albums such as The Marshall Mathers LP and The Eminem Show previously reached high positions on the Official Charts. In several past weeks, his catalog titles have resurfaced simultaneously, illustrating how major streaming platforms keep older releases visible.

Streaming strength and certifications

On Spotify, Eminem ranks among the most-streamed rappers worldwide, with his profile regularly surpassing 70 million monthly listeners in recent months. This global reach feeds directly into chart performance in markets like Germany, where streaming counts fully contribute to the Official Album Charts.

In terms of certifications, the BVMI (Bundesverband Musikindustrie) lists classic Eminem albums such as The Eminem Show and Encore with Gold and Platinum awards in Germany, reflecting physical and digital unit thresholds of 100,000 and 200,000 respectively. These awards underline how the current chart return of Curtain Call 2 extends a long-standing commercial story rather than marking an isolated spike.

The sound of Curtain Call 2

Curtain Call 2, released in August 2022, collects Eminem’s singles and key collaborations from the era after Relapse, including songs from Recovery, The Marshall Mathers LP 2, Kamikaze and Music to Be Murdered By. Musically, the compilation moves from aggressive trap-influenced beats to more classic boom bap textures.

Production credits across the set include Dr. Dre, Eminem himself and a range of contemporary producers, giving the track list a broad stylistic span. Guest appearances from artists such as Rihanna, Ed Sheeran and 50 Cent position Eminem at the intersection of mainstream pop hooks and dense, technically complex rap verses.

Where Eminem stands right now

There is no officially announced upcoming tour date for Eminem at present, and his camp has not confirmed a new album release date. Against this backdrop, the renewed chart activity of Curtain Call 2 shows how his back catalog alone keeps him visible in Germany and globally.
