Weeks after the massive Super Bowl weekend, it seems like two of the five hip-hop icons have been reaping the success of their iconic halftime show.
Eminem and Dr. Dre are two giant pillars of the hip-hop and rap scene, and it looks like they are making a comeback in the charts.
As per the Billboard 200 album charts, the two found their footing way back into the Top 10 of the popular charts.
However, Billboard has not yet revealed the new standing for the Billboard 200 charts; only the Top 10 have been revealed so far.
The Super Bowl aftermath
Eminem's 2005 hit album "Curtain Call: The Hits" catapulted from No. 126 to No. 8 following the Super Bowl Weekend, earning up to 256% of equivalent album unit sales.
"Curtain Call: The Hits" returned to Top 10 for the first time since its March 2006-dated chart, debuting at No. 1 on its release date in December 2005.
Meanwhile, maestro Dr. Dre also found his way back to the Top 10 at the No. 9 spot with his second studio album, "2001, The Chronic 2001".
Also referred to as "The Chronic II," Dre's album leaped from No. 108 to the No. 9 spot on the Billboard 200 album charts, with 220% sales amounting to 30,500 equivalent album unit sales.
Dre's iconic album peaked and debuted at the No. 2 spot since its release in Dec 1999. It has not returned to the Top 10 since May 2000 at the No. 9 spot.
On the iconic halftime show, Eminem performed one of "Curtain Call's" banger hit "Lose Yourself" while "2001" featured "Forgot About Dre," "Still D.R.E." and "The Next Episode," which he performed with Snoop Dogg.
Other albums in the Top 10

Gunna's "DS4EVER" holds at the No. 2 spot, Morgan Wallen's "Dangerous: The Double Album" clinched the No. 3 spot from No. 4, while Drake's "Certified Lover Boy" climbs from No. 7 to the No. 4 spot.
