The legend continues. It may be 20 years since the song released, and 15 years since the music video was even posted to YouTube, but it doesn’t matter how long it takes when it comes to reaching a billion views. That’s rare air. For Eminem, his song “Mockingbird” marks the 6th time he’s done it.
The other instances in which his music videos have crossed the 1Bil marker are, “Without Me,” “Love The Way You Lie,” “Lose Yourself,” “Rap God,” and “Smack That” with Akon. Not a bad club. “Mockingbird” is undoubtedly his most emotional and sentimental song to have it’s video rack up such views, as it chronicles his struggles of parenting his two daughters early on.
