Eminem's Decade-Plus-Old Smash Hits New Peaks On Multiple Charts
Eminem has dozens of massive hits under his belt and one of the most impressive chart legacies of any rapper in history. This week, he adds another win to his ever-growing résumé — but not with a new release. Instead, it's an older track that's making music again. 'Shake That,' the collaboration with the late Nate Dogg, is back on the Billboard charts, and it's bigger than ever on several rankings.
'Shake That' reappears on a pair of Billboard tallies this week. It doesn't manage to break onto all-genre tallies like the Hot 100, but it's once again a bestseller, appearing on two genre-specific lists.
The Eminem cut returns to the Rap Digital Song Sales chart at No. 9. That's the highest it's ever ranked on that list. 'Shake That' also finds space on the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales tally, where it enters at No. 12. Though slightly lower, that's another all-time best showing for the single.
Over the course of its lifetime, 'Shake That' hasn't been a consistent performer on these two rosters. In fact, as of this frame, it has only spent two weeks on the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales ranking, and just one other turn on the Rap Digital Song Sales list.
'Shake That' was originally featured on Curtain Call: The Hits, a compilation that Eminem dropped in 2005. That set was largely a collection of previously-released smashes, but it did include a few brand new tracks. 'Shake That' was one of just three original cuts created for the project.
When it was released, the track quickly became another win for the rapper. It peaked at No. 6 on the Hot 100, extending his streak of high-charting singles at the time and giving Nate Dogg one of his biggest mainstream successes.
'Shake That' stands as Eminem's only current hit on the U.S. charts. His track 'Without Me' is still performing well globally, though it's on the decline across Billboard's international rankings. This time around, 'Without Me' drops to No. 146 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. and No. 170 on the Billboard Global 200.
With 'Shake That' becoming a bestseller once more, it's not shocking that Curtain Call: The Hits is enjoying a boost in performance as well. The compilation appears on four Billboard charts this week, and it's climbing on three of them.

Neil Young ditches Facebook over Meta's ‘unconscionable' policies for AI chatbots and children
The cursor and the damage done. Neil Young, 79, has announced that he is leaving Facebook over the platform's internal policies regarding communications between artificial intelligence chatbots and children. 6 Neil Young performs at the Grand Park in Los Angeles, California, on April 12, 2025. Getty Images Advertisement 6 Neil Young announced on Thursday that he is leaving Facebook over Meta's internal policies regarding communications between artificial intelligence chatbots and children. REUTERS 'At Neil Young's request, we are no longer using Facebook for any Neil Young related activities,' a post on Young's Facebook page, dated Thursday, Aug. 14, reads. 'Meta's use of chatbots with children is unconscionable,' it added. 'Mr. Young does not want a further connection with FACEBOOK.' Advertisement The 'Heart of Gold' singer's decision to leave Facebook came the same day that Reuters obtained internal documents from Facebook's parent company, Meta, regarding policies on its AI chatbots and their programmed behaviors when chatting with kids. 6 Neil Young performs at the Glastonbury Festival in Somerset, England, on June 28, 2025. AP According to the documents, Meta allowed its chatbots to 'engage a child in conversations that are romantic or sensual.' Several example prompts were also reportedly included that specified what would make certain conversations acceptable or not. Advertisement 'It is acceptable to describe a child in terms that evidence their attractiveness,' one alleged prompt read, while another said, 'It is unacceptable to describe a child under 13 years old in terms that indicate they are sexually desirable.' 6 Meta reportedly allowed its chatbots to 'engage a child in conversations that are romantic or sensual.' AFP via Getty Images A spokesperson for Meta has since insisted that 'the examples and notes in question were and are erroneous and inconsistent with our policies' and that they 'have been removed.' 'We have clear policies on what kind of responses AI characters can offer, and those policies prohibit content that sexualizes children and sexualized role play between adults and minors,' the spokesperson said in a statement to Reuters. Advertisement Another rep for Meta shared a similar statement with The Hollywood Reporter – although they did not mention the 'Rockin' in the Free World' musician in their response. 6 Neil Young performs at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, California, on April 26, 2025.

'Separate from the policies, there are hundreds of examples, notes, and annotations that reflect teams grappling with different hypothetical scenarios,' they added. This would not be the first time that Young has ditched a platform over ethical concerns. Back in 2022, the 'Needle and the Damage Done' rocker left Spotify after Joe Rogan pushed misinformation about the Covid-19 vaccine on his popular 'The Joe Rogan Experience' podcast. 6 Neil Young performs in concert during Farm Aid 2024 at Saratoga Performing Arts Center on September 21, 2024.

Advertisement The 'Harvest Moon' singer ultimately returned to Spotify last year. Meanwhile, Meta's AI chatbots have also made recent headlines after it was revealed that a 76-year-old New Jersey man passed away while trying to meet one in New York City. Thongbue Wongbandue, a married father of two, fatally injured his neck and head after falling in a New Brunswick parking lot while rushing to catch a train to meet 'Big sis Billie,' a generative Meta AI chatbot that convinced him she was real.

Olympic rugby star Ilona Maher thinks we've ‘lost the plot' with this health trend: ‘Don't lie to yourself'
Hold the cottage cheese. Pro rugby player Ilona Maher — whose team won the bronze medal in the Paris Olympics — spends plenty of time training to dominate on the pitch. But there's one fitness-focused diet trend that she thinks is a bit over-the-top — and she points to herself as evidence that it's unnecessary. 3 Pro rugby player Ilona Maher thinks the obession with protein has gone a bit off the rails. AP A former athlete herself, Kylie Kelce complained about how 'everything is trying to be high protein' on a June episode of her podcast, Not Gonna Lie, arguing that not everything needs added protein powder. Maher was on the same page, and she's no fan of a low-carb lifestyle either. 'I have a high-protein diet, but I also have probably the highest-carb diet ever,' the 29-year-old Bristol Bears player said. 'I was raised on very high-carb diets. And carbs are really the energy that you need — that's science, truly.' That isn't to say she doesn't eat protein too. 'I get protein in for most meals, but I'm actually not as committed to the bit as I maybe could be. I think I could be leaner … if I was really focusing on protein. But I just don't see — I think I'm fine,' she added. A big issue for both women is the trend of swapping 'real' food for protein-heavy substitutes. In recent years, for example, cottage cheese recipes have blown up on social media, with people using it in place of cream cheese, sour cream, ricotta and even mayo and butter. It's low in fat and high in protein, a combo that can keep you full, increase metabolism and preserve muscle mass. Plus, the curdling process creates bacteria that are good for your gut. 3 Maher, whose team won the bronze medal in the Paris Olympics, eats protein most meals — but she's not swapping 'real food' for protein-ified recipes. Getty Images But Kelce said her concern is people blending up cottage cheese and pretending it tastes like ice cream. 'Don't lie to yourself,' Maher added in agreement. 'I saw a recent one, it was like protein tiramisu. She dips the rice cake in espresso and then she puts Greek yogurt on there. I was like, that's not even f—-ing close!' 'I think we really lost the plot on that,' she said. Though she is working to eat more protein at the urging of her dietitian, for her that means more 'real food.' 'So after training I'll have a quick protein shake — that's very easy, quick protein. But if I can, I'm gonna have the eggs. I love like beef jerky,' she said. 3 'I saw a recent one, it was like protein tiramisu. She dips the rice cake in espresso and then she puts Greek yogurt on there. I was like, that's not even f—-ing close!' she said. Getty Images 'I just think, I mean maybe I'm wrong in science, but I don't know if we need that much. Because I'm doing fine and I just had a bagel this morning.' She's not the first star to take issue with the high-protein craze. This month, Bethenny Frankel also called out the fad. 'The obsession with protein is an out-of-control fad that everyday people are fixated on as if they're training for the Olympics,' she told The Post. 'They can also be calorie-dense. It's another marketing gimmick like keto or carnivore or low carb or all the absurd fads I've witnessed over the years. Balance is key.' In fact, studies show that there is such a thing as eating too much protein — and it can make you gain weight and clog your arteries. 'Consuming excessive protein, particularly from animal sources, raises insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels,' Dr. Joseph Antoun, CEO of the longevity company L-Nutra, previously told The Post. Primarily produced in the liver, IGF-1 is a hormone, that plays a crucial role in promoting growth and regulating metabolism. 'While it's essential in childhood and for muscle repair,' Antoun said, 'chronically elevated IGF-1 in adults has been linked to accelerated biological aging and therefore an increased risk of age-related conditions, notably cancer.'
