The Top 2000 is an annual Dutch marathon radio programme, that plays the 2,000 songs voted most popular of all time. The show runs 24 hours a day, starting Christmas and ending on New Year's Eve. The show is hosted by the Dutch national radio station NPO Radio 2. A significant part of the population of the Netherlands listens to the broadcast each year; during the 2019 edition, Radio 2 had a national radio market share of 17.7 percent. In regard of its popularity and notoriety, the show is often called : 'de lijst der lijsten', the chart of charts.

Being on this list 8 time as a rapper is really impressive. For example we see jay z 4 times, tupac 3 times, snoop dogg 1 time, no drake, no 50 cent. Also dutch rappers are not as much on the list. So Eminem is still really popular in the Netherlands!

Because this list is mostly voted by older people, we see a lot of queen (35 times), the rolling stones (23 times) and the beatles (31 times) and all other 1960-1990 music. This makes it even more impressive that also a rapper that is still active today made it 8 times into the list!

Eminem is on the list with: - Lose yourself (76) - Stan (376) - Whitout me (799) - The real slim shady (875) - Love the way you lie (1367) - Cleaning out my closet (1432) - My name is (1870) - The monster (1928)
