Fame of rap artist spending second million as soon as losing love (8)
I believe the answer is:
eminence
'fame' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'rap artist spending second million as soon as losing love' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'artist' could be 'emin' (Tracey Emin) and 'emin' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eminence that I've seen before include "State of distinction, like cardinal" , "greatness!" , "State of being famous or distinguished" , "Title for cardinal" , "Distinction - high ground" .)
