Eminem’s “KILLSHOT” Breaks YouTube Record
The Machine Gun Kelly diss has the biggest 24-hour debut for a hip-hop video.
Eminem’s Machine Gun Kelly diss, “KILLSHOT,” has officially broken the YouTube record for the biggest 24-hour debut for a hip-hop video in the site’s history. According to Chart Data, the video received 38.1 million views in the first day after it was uploaded on September 14.
The record-breaking achievement is all the more notable considering it isn’t really a video, it is just one image and an audio stream. The beef between Eminem and Machine Gun Kelly started with a track on Eminem’s Kamikaze album, before MGK responded with “Rap Devil,” leading to the release of “KILLSHOT.”
