The “Fortnite Kids Effect” on Spotify streams refers to where an artist experiences a notable increase in the number of streams, potentially from their involvement in Fortnite. The battle royale platform has a massive global player base. And events or collaborations within the game can significantly impact the visibility and popularity of associated content, including music.

Fortnite has pioneered the concept of in-game concerts and events. Players can attend virtual concerts featuring live performances by real-world artists. These events create a unique and immersive experience for players. And this in turn, fosters a connection between the gaming and music communities.

What can players expect from the Fortnite X Eminem collaboration?

Players will get to see Eminem perform live in Fortnite during ‘The Big Bang’ event. Further, with the concert, players will receive 3 new skins inspired by Eminem:

• Rap Boy
• Slim Shady
• Marshall Never More.

Players can purchase these skins from the in-game item shop, allowing them to customize their characters with iconic Eminem-themed cosmetics.
