Last month, Eminem joined rare company. The veteran rapper enjoyed hearing about his 2002 album, The Eminem Show, going diamond. The album was one of 2002's more popular releases. Eminem solidified himself with his third major label album.

Eminem barely had time to get over his first diamond plaque when he has to make room for another one. Fans knew Eminem was in the game to stay when he released 2000's The Marshall Mathers LP. On this album, Eminem released the single, "The Way I Am."

Eleven years following the release of the album in his namesake, Eminem is celebrating the album being certified Diamond by the RIAA. This is the second Eminem album to do so in as many months.
