OBVIOUSLY yes. When he was promoting his old albums, he basically lived on that show for months. He was never big on radio (except Lose Yourself), that's why MTV was a big part keeping him relevant. Now MTV is kinda irrelevant, it's much harder to popularize his singles because the lack of radio support.

Never big on the radio? He was being overplayed on the radio so many times. I always heard Without Me, TRSS, Just Lose It, Ass Like That.

"big" as in number one or number two on radio, he only has Lose Yourself which tops Hot airplay for 6 weeks and Without Me for 1 week.
