Curtain Call: The Hits je bil izdan 9 let po izdaju Eminemovega prvega studijskega albuma, Infinite, in točno 8 let po izdaji njegovega EP-ja, The Slim Shady EP.

Zgodovina

Pesem imenovana "Nail In The Coffin", posneta leta 2003, je bila odstranjena iz albuma iz neznanega razloga. Curtain Call: The Hits je skočila na vrh albumskih lestvic v ZK. Album je podobno kot Eminemov prejšnji album, Encore, bil izdan v zadnjih dveh dneh v tednu, ampak je bil pordan v skoraj 441,000 kopijah in blizu 324,000 kopijah v drugem tednu, in tako ostal na vrhu lestvic za dva tedna. V tretjem tednu je padel iz prvega na tretje mest, ampak bil prodan v 33% več kopijah kot v drugem tednu; to je skoraj 430,000. Prodan je bil v skoraj 1.2 milijonih kopijah v prvih treh tednih. Tako je album postal Eminemov peti št. 1 v ZDA in ZK, če vključimo filmsko glasbo za njego film, 8 Mile. Curtain Call je bil dvakrat platinast v ZDA. Do 28. novembra 2010, je album bil prodan v 3,222,000 kopijah.
