Eminem, 50 Cent, and Mary J. Blige also appeared in the Top 10 alongside Dr. Dre and Snoop. At the time of writing the stars of Super Bowl LVI mid-game performance occupy 7 of the Top 10 spots.
Meanwhile, Dr. Dre revealed that he and Mary J. Blige went straight back to his home studio following their show on Sunday. “We went downstairs to the studio and she was playing me samples and we were just vibing out,” Dre said. He also admitted, “we’re talking about working together on her next project.” However, he was premature in making the announcement and apologized to Mary for leaking the news!
