New Song: Eminem – “Is This Love,” ft. 50 Cent

Eminem’s “Is This Love” song with 50 Cent produced by Dr. Dre, Trevor Lawrence Jr. and Mark Batson, is an unreleased song from 2009, most likely recorded for Relapse: Refill or Relapse 2, yet was kept in the vault due to the negative reviews from critics. This track is one of two recorded by the duo in 2009, with the other, “Psycho”, being put on 50’s Before I Self Destruct.

Like “Jimmy, Brian and Mike,” the track contains re-recorded vocals by both Eminem and 50 Cent and it is included in the greatest hits album “Curtain Call 2” which drops tomorrow, worldwide.

The song is already out in New Zealand and Australia. For the international release, there are still 15 hours remaining but Kiwis and Aussies are already able to listen to the song on Apple Music.

You can stream the song below:

We are about to hear a song by Eminem featuring 50 Cent, produced by Dr. Dre

“Curtain Call 2” symbolized as CC2, is the follow-up to Eminem’s 2005 greatest hits album “Curtain Call: The Hits” which includes three new tracks: “From The D 2 The LBC” with Snoop Dogg and Elvis movie soundtrack “The King And I,” with CeeLo Green and as it turns out “Is This Love (’09),” featuring 50 Cent. The rest of the album is compiled with hits from 2009 to this day.

Couple of days ago, Grammy and Emmy winning Aftermath producer Trevor Lawrence Jr. has revealed that new Eminem track which also involves Dr. Dre, is dropping next week. B y connecting two facts, “This Is Love” is produced by Dr. Dre and features 50 Cent.

The name of the song was unveiled by Target store. A pre-order for the 2LP vinyl has appeared on the store’s site with the official artwork which has a sticker revealing the title of the song ‘Is This Love’ (09′) featuring none other than former Shady/Aftermath hitmaker 50 Cent.

The song is probably from 2009, as the title suggests so we are getting Relapse era Eminem and 50 Cent this or the next Friday! Check the screenshot of the sticker below and visit here for the full tracklist of “Curtain Call 2.”

50 Cent raps Eminem’s “Forget About Dre” hook before performing “Ayo Technology” in London

50 Cent has started the United Kingdom tour this week and the crowd’s admission has been impressive so far!

Fifty was performing at the OVO Arena in Wembley last Friday, 10 June, 2022 when he made the crowd slightly emotional after he said he was not sure if the United Kingdom would remember him.

Fiddy told to the thousands in the crowd: “You all did not forget. I thought you forgot about me.” He then made a reference to Dr. Dre who produced 50 Cent’s major-label debut album, an all-time classic, Get Rich or Die Tryin’, back in 2003.

“You know like they Forgot About Dre,” 50 added before spitting some Eminem bars from the song: “Nowadays everybody wanna talk like they got something to say but nothing comes out when they move their lips, just a bunch of gibberish and motherf***ers act like they forgot about Dre.”

“Forgot About Dre” is a song from 1999 by Dr. Dre and Eminem and the theme, as you might have guessed, was a message to the ‘haters’ who thought the producer had ‘fallen off’.

After spitting few lines of Eminem’s hook, 50 kicked off one of his hit songs “Ayo Technology,” which features Justin Timberlake.

You can watch the performance below:

The transgender model releases Benzino disstrack and 50 Cent can’t stop trolling

50 Cent is back on trolling mode again.

The two recording artists have had beef between them for some time now, and a recent diss track teased by has only added fuel to Fif’s fire.

Yesterday, transgender model Shauna Brooks shared a preview of her new song, on which she throws shots at Benzino following his aggressive online attacks aimed at her.

“I was getting some head from Benzino, no neck / He was all on my line, I could show you the texts / He was begging for help / Love it when they go clap / He be loving on this a** / I be throwing it back.” – raps Shauna.

Once 50 Cent saw it, he started trolling Benzino by sharing the clip with the caption: “Oh s**t she better than Benzino. Shauna s**t sounding fire, he know he want this a**.”

You can check the post below:

Benzino throws shots at 50 Cent in a new song “Zino Vs. The Planet”

Benzino releases a new song called “Zino Vs. the Planet,” where he speaks on his feud with his daughter, Coi Leray and 50 Cent.

The track was mostly targeted at Fifty, following a number of transphobic social media posts from 50 Cent regarding Benzino’s relationship with trans actress Shauna Brooks.

The last time Benzino spoke about his interactions with 50, he mentioned their first meeting where he allegedly helped him after he had been stabbed and showed up at his studio.

“When I first met 50 Cent this was when he got stabbed up at the radio station. He got stabbed up at the Hit Factory on 54th Street, the big studio that everybody was going to. He is bleeding on the side from getting stabbed. He had no money.” said Zino.

“I’m about to break the internet with this one,” says the former Source magazine owner on the intro of the song before recalling that interaction again: “50 keep it a hundred / I helped you when they jumped you/ I should have let them ghost you just like Kanan when they slumped you.”

The song is already out for 4 days and it collected hardly 30k views on YouTube. It doesn’t seem to break the internet and 50 has not responded yet.

You can listen to the new track below. Let’s add few more views to it.

According to N.O.R.E., Eminem told Jay-Z he wasn’t going to perform at the 2022 Pepsi Super Bowl halftime show if he could not bring 50 Cent with him.

N.O.R.E. confirmed the story on the latest Drink Champs podcast with DJ EFN, which premiered on YouTube couple of days ago. The guest on the show was none other than hip-hop icon Snoop Doggy Dogg.

50 Cent was not happy with how Jigga addressed Eminem as a ‘white guy,’ so responded on Instagram post with a caption: “Why did he say the white boy, why he did not say the biggest rap artist in the world?”

Royce Da 5’9″ felt proud of Eminem for showing such loyalty, love and respect to Fifty. Royce shared Southpawer article screenshot on his Instagram with the caption: “I love my brother! Shady for life!”
