Joe Budden talks if he would ever reconcile with Eminem

During a recent episode of Joe Budden Podcast the crew talked about the video CNN obtained of P. Diddy assaulting Cassie as well as his subsequent apology. Melyssa then calls Psychology Professor & Family Therapist Mercedes Coffman to discuss domestic violence and the aftermath as it pertains to both the abuser and victims. Also, the room reacts to Cam’ron’s appearance on CNN, Terrance Howard joins the Joe Rogan Podcast, Apple Music has continued on with their Top-100 Albums of All-Time list and much more!

At one point of the podcast, Joe Budden was asked if he would ever reconcile with Eminem and cleared the air about the past beef: “I don’t have the Eminem beef. I don’t think I have an Eminem beef. Now, he may have one. I don’t try to match the anger that people have with me. I don’t have no smoke. But I also am not in a rush to…there is no need, you cool over there, I’m cool over here. If there ever come a day we sit down and chop it up then awesome. I’m not opposed to it. But, am I in search of that? No.”

last month, Eminem’s upcoming album was discussed on Joe Budden Podcast: “I saw a lot of negative reactions too but Eminem announced that he’s dropping The Death Of Slim Shady album. Personally I’m excited. I see some people say he does not rap about anything or he just raps about how good he raps. A lot of people don’t like the fast rapping flow and etc. I say to those people ‘I don’t think you listen to his last project, Music To Be Murdered By. It’s an amazing album. That was my number two album of 2020.” said Officially Ice.

From there, Joe Budden interfered: “Did I get dissed on there?” But he was quickly reminded that he was dissed on 2018’s Kamikaze album. On that he replied: “Alright, I’ll check that out then.”

Then Ice continues: “He went back and did the deluxe thing and added second album to it. I didn’t really rock with second but the original Music To Be Murdered By was a great project, a lot of concepts. It (new trailer) was rolled out as true crime investigation doc type of thing, so if this is what you are doing and you are announcing this as the death of Slim Shady, I’m expecting something conceptual on here and when he get on that bag, he’s really not to be f–ked with.”

Ebro explains why Apple Music ranked SZA album higher than Eminem

About a week ago, Apple Music announced their 100 greatest albums of all time with Lauryn Hill’s 1998 iconic “The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill” claiming the top spot. Hill’s debut album outpaced other classic records from Beyoncé, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Eminem, 2Pac, The Notorious B.I.G., Prince, Stevie Wonder, Kendrick Lamar, Amy Winehouse, Frank Ocean and Nirvana.

The process started several months ago when Apple Music’s editorial team of editors and music experts – including Zane Lowe (global creative director and lead anchor for Apple Music 1) and Ebro Darden (global editorial head of hip-hop and R&B) – generated a list of candidates from the past 65 years. Members from Apple Music’s internal team submitted their personal lists of albums through the company’s voting microsite. The votes were weighted according to an album’s placement – the higher the ranking, the more votes assigned. Apple Music used the same voting methodology for a select group external voters that included artists, songwriters, producers and some media.

During one of the recent episodes of Rap Life Show on Apple Music, Ebro Darden read some comment reactions from fans. One of the users said: “SZA higher than Eminem and Missy Elliott is wild to me as well.” On which, Ebro replied: “SZA’s album is about to break Michael Jackson’s long-standing record for an RnB album being in the Billboard Top 200 for consecutive months I think, or weeks, it’s about to be. I Love Supa Dupa Fly Missy Elliott and I love Missy Elliott. It didn’t do that at that time.”

Then he continued: “And Eminem as big as Eminem has been with his singles, I don’t know if his albums did those numbers. That kind of longevity. And there is recent history bias in this list because you have such an young panel of people voting inside Apple Music. I think this won’t be the last time we do this. This was not based on sales and streaming.”

One of Eminem’s fans, @SonaShady8 replied: “Ebro is trying to tell us why SZA is higher than Eminem and Missy Elliott, because she was about to break Michael Jackson’s records then he says: oh this list isn’t based on streams or sales… Seriously? Are you okay, guys!” Check the video below.

Eminem & Jack White might be teaming up for “The Death Of Slim Shady” album

Eminem is preparing to release his 12th solo studio studio album, titled The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce), sometime this summer. So far, the Detroit legend has yet to release any singles from the forthcoming project nor confirm a solid release date or tracklist. Now, Stans are curious what fellow Detroit native Jack White has to do with it.

The album rollout has already started, though, which is surprising from Em cause he has been dropping surprise albums since 2017. Not only did he take out a fake obituary for Slim Shady—his longtime alter-ego—in the Detroit Free Press, but he also dropped a trailer for the album with the cameo from 50 Cent during Detroit NFL Draft 2024.

Yesterday (May 26, 2024), the White Stripes lead singer and guitarist shared a random post consisting of three photos of Eminem from his 2014 Shady CXVPHER, rocking a PRhyme hoodie. He didn’t include any caption, leaving people guessing as to what the post could actually be about. Speculation ran wild in the comment section with comments like, “If there’s a collab here, the entire planet will faint all at once” and “What if Jack is on Eminem’s new album that’s coming out soon.”

The notion isn’t too far fetched. Eminem has previously collaborated with artists who might seem a bit outside the box for him, including Ed Sheeran and Rihanna. White, meanwhile, is known to be a big Hip-Hop fan and most recently collaborated with A Tribe Called Quest’s Q-Tip on his latest album, 2022’s Entering Heaven Alive.

Despite minimal detail on the album, Eminem did tease a possible release date recently. On Monday (May 20, 2024), Marshall shared a cryptic tweet that included a photo of a text message with the vanishing effect revealing the words, “…and for my last trick!” The date on the message was May 31, 2024 at 12 a.m.

Considering that’s a Friday, it’s not hard to conclude what he’s suggesting. After all, he did say the album was arriving this summer—not spring. Now, Stans are eagerly expecting the first single from the album to arrive that day.

This week is the Detroit Grand Prix too. Jack White and Eminem both might be performing at the show. Check out Jack’s post below:

Nasaan jokingly warns Eminem about releasing on the same day as him

Eminem appears to have ‘upset’ Big Proof‘s son NASAAN as they now have release dates on the same day. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), the young Detroit rapper jokingly warned Detroit legend not dare releasing anything on the same day as him: “Eminem dropping the same day as me? I would not do that if I was you, UNLESSSS you wanna get out sold OG.”

He then urged fans to pre-save his upcoming project titled Error 404 which is dropping on May 31, 2024, the same date Eminem has teased a new release, which is likely to be the first single from his upcoming album The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce). NASAAN’s debut project, Error 404 is curated by Royce 5’9″ and is set to feature Royce himself, as well as Detroit rappers Icewear Vezzo and BabyTron.

NASAAN has recently released the first single from the project, titled “Goated” featuring Royce 5’9″. In the song’s accompanying video, NASAAN paid tribute to his late father by recreating a famous freestyle featuring Proof and Eminem from 1999 during an interview with MTV. You can watch it below:

Kxng Crooked thinks May 31 is the released date of new Eminem album

Eminem has been taking a very unique approach to the rollout for his much-anticipated upcoming 12th solo studio album. Last month, Marshall announced The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce) with a true crime parody video just before the NFL Draft 2024, and then he had an obituary for Slim printed in the Detroit Free Press, all well as in Germany and Italy newspapers. It’s looking like The Death of Slim Shady will be Eminem’s most ambitious album in years, and based on the latest piece of material released, it won’t be long until fans get to hear what it sounds like.

Few days ago, Eminem posted a screenshot video of a text exchange on his social media accounts. The contact info at the top reads: “All contacts,” and the message that gets sent out reads: “And for my last trick!” This video furthers the notion that the upcoming album will be the end of the line for Slim Shady as a character. The biggest revelation, though, is the time in which the text message is sent. The message says Friday, May 31 at 12:00 AM, which means fans can expect something major to happen on this date. It’s not made clear what the “something” will be. Under the comment section on Instagram, Ez Mil and Nasaan both commented the magic wand emojis. Slim Shady also changed his profile pictures on social media to a ‘rabbit’, which is probably related to his 8 Mile character.

Yesterday, one of the fans on X (formerly Twitter) asked Kxng Crooked what is Eminem dropping on may 31st, an album, the tracklist or a single, on which Crooked replied with a Jimmy McGill GIF with the caption: “If he’s doing all of this for a single.. better call Paul.” Jimmy McGill is a character in “Breaking Bad” and “Better Call Saul” TV series. Crook cryptically references an iconic phrase “Better Call Saul” but replaced Saul with Paul, which probably refers to Paul Rosenberg. Check out the tweet below:

It will probably be a new single. Some fans took to the comment section to theorize that Em is dropping the entire album on May 31, but the video teaser announcing The Death of Slim Shady stated that it will drop in the summer. Seeing as summer doesn’t officially start until late June, it’s safe to state that Eminem will be sitting on the album for a bit longer. The Detroit legend first teased the idea of new music back in January. He told Shade 45 listeners that he was “working on a little something,” and also teased a potential collaboration with 50 Cent.

“I’m trying to get him to make a new album so bad. We need another 50 album, like, really bad. 50’s on a roll right now. He’s been on a roll since the tour. I told him whatever the f–k he needs from me, I’m here. Joint album? That s–t would be crazy, though, an album with me and him.” said Eminem.

Watch the trailer of “How Music Got Free,” produced by Eminem with 50 Cent cameo

A new docuseries titled HOW MUSIC GOT FREE will be released on June 11, 2024. The documentary details the amazing story of the technology-driven disruption that changed music during the late-90s and early-2000s. File sharing technology, combined with the unprecedented demand for new music, created both the means and the motive for millions of young people to participate in outright theft on the internet.

HOW MUSIC GOT FREE is executive produced by LeBron James and Eminem along with Slim Shady’s manager Paul Rosenberg, Maverick Carter and Steve Stoute, and is based on the popular book of the same name by author Stephen Witt. The documentary is produced by Warner Bros. Unscripted Television/Telepictures in association with SpringHill, Interscope Films and Shady Films. Narrated by Method Man, the series features interviews with Eminem, 50 Cent, Timbaland, Jimmy Iovine, Rocsi Diaz, Rhymefest, Steve Stoute and many more.

Dell Glover from Shelby, NC became the main leaker of music in the wild wild mp3 days who used to work a job at the Universal Music CD pressing plant. The series throws light on his story and how his actions changed the music industry forever.

In the trailer, Eminem says: “When Napster came about I didn’t understand the internet yet. I thought Yahoo was a person…Here is what you don’t understand if music should be free. I have entire army of people that need their paycheck.” You can watch the trailer below:

Eminem’s mother reacts to Eminem & Hailie dancing at her granddaughter’s wedding

A little more than a year after Eminem and Kim Scott’s daughter Hailie Jade revealed that she and Evan McClintock had gotten engaged, the two have tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Battle Creek, Michigan surrounded by family and friends, which included Dr. Dre, 50 Cent and Jimmy Iovine.

“Waking up a wife this week,” Hailie shared in a May 20, 2024 Instagram post featuring photos from the couple’s wedding day. “We couldn’t have asked for a better, more beautiful weekend celebration.” And the 28-year-old, who wore a stunning white strapless gown with jaw-dropping floor-length veil, simply found herself lost in the moment during their nuptials.

She continued: “So so many happy tears were shed laughs and smiles were had and so much love was felt. Evan and I are feeling so grateful for all of the family and friends that traveled to support us and be a part of this new chapter of our lives as husband and wife.”

Under the posts’ comment, Bizarre of D12 commented: “Congrats” with heart emoji. Obie Trice also replied: “Congratulations Hailie,” and Skylar Grey said: “Congrats honey stunning.”

But that’s not all from the ceremony, according to TMZ, Hailie and Eminem enjoyed a father-daughter dance during the occasion, which was held at a lavish venue in Battle Creek, Michigan. Eminem’s mother, Debbie Nelson, who is registered on X (formerly Twitter) as @heartandsoul777, retweeted her friend Amanda Gardner’s post with the caption: “My son hasn’t slow danced. 🙂 Give him E for effort. Love you son And Hailey. Congrats.” Check out the tweet below:

Hailie dances with Eminem at her wedding

Yesterday, Eminem’s daughter Hailie Jade Scott, married her fiancé Evan McClintock in Battle Creek, Michigan. As TMZ reports, the ceremony was modestly sized with close friends and family.

Of course, that meant Papa Bear himself was also there and TMZ got some awesome shots that show him soaking in Hailie’s big day, with the two of them sharing a dance!

As you can see, Slim Shady was suited and booted as he led Hailie, who looked absolutely beautiful in her bridal gown, on the dance floor, with a ton of people looking on. Hailie was flashing a big smile and Eminem was true to his name, rockin’ classic sunglasses.

Another photo shows Em posing next to Hailie and Evan together at the wedding venue, Greencrest Manor and everybody is radiating, especially, Hailie, who’s in all-white… It’s certainly a happy ending for Hailie and Evan who’ve been together as a couple since 2016 and who got engaged last February, with some fantastic shots capturing the moment.

Hailie, who’s 28 now, and a successful podcaster/social media influencer, has been the apple of Eminem’s eye for many years, having been name-dropped in countless songs of his, with Em making it known that he’s a protective dad and would do anything for her.

We know Em’s proud of Hailie and her life path and obviously, since he was there for the wedding, we know he approves of Evan as a hubby for his kid. Now, he’s got a son-in-law. Pretty crazy to think she’s all grown up and off to start her own family. Things really do come full circle — and Em clearly meant what he said when he rapped about getting her anything she wanted. Indeed, it’s Hailie’s Song, only here — it’s “Here Comes the Bride.”

Check out the pictures and videos. Reportedly, 50 Cent was also present at wedding. [STAY TUNED WE ARE UPATING ARTICLE WITH MORE PICTURES AND VIDEOS]

Stephen Colbert promotes The Death Of Slim Shady & invites Eminem at his show

Stephen Colbert has recently promoted Eminem’s new album on his THE LATE SHOW with STEPHEN COLBERT and invited the Detroit legend for an interview to promote his much-anticipated project.

“Folks, everybody who knows me, knows I’m big into hip-hop, the rippity raps as we call it, which is why I was personally devastated to learn that an obituary has appeared in Detroit Free Press for Eminem’s fictional alter ego Slim Shady. If only the authorities had thought to contact his doctor but sadly they Forgot About Dre.” said Stephen Colbert.

He then continued: “Now, the heartless buzzards of the media industry out there claim that Eminem is just running this fake obituary to promote his upcoming album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coupe De Grace). Mnem, as he as repeatedly asked me not to call him, is it true artist, he would never stoop to emotionally manipulating his fans for a few streams, plus no major media figure is going to be dumb enough to fall for this obit and promote The Death Of Slim Shady (Coupe De Grace), available later this summer (Come on this show, call me).”

“No, this obit is real and can mean only one thing, Will The Real Slim Shady Please Stand Up? Now I’m Slim Shady. Yes, I’m the real Shady, all the other Slim Shadys are just imitating. Will the real Slim Shady please stand up? Which mean all the royalties for the music should be sent to The Real Slim Shady care of Stephen Colbert, Ed Sullivan Theater, New York, New York. Or just go to Times Square and look for the building with my name on it.” Stephen Colbert added. You can watch the monologue below:

Slim Shady obituary appears in The Detroit Free Press newspaper

Slim is coming back for the last time.

Eminem is gearing up for the release of his 12th solo studio album The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce), which will be the final chapter in his alter ego’s storyline. The catch is, like the title suggests, Slim Shady is dead. The teaser that announced the album was structured like an old procedural show, in which witnesses reflect on what went wrong. Since Em announced the album, we have seen no promo at all except today, when Em posted an obituary in the Detroit newspaper.

“Slim Shady made lasting impressions” read the Detroit Free Press headline. The piece treats Slim like a real person, despite the comically exaggerated photo of him wearing a hockey mask above the headline. It does, however, address some of the satirical elements that Eminem has played with whenever he used the Shady moniker. “[His] audience was soon exposed to the extreme darkness of the muse/rapper. As he led millions of music fans down a road glorified a demonstrably nihilistic worldview.”

The obituary notes that Slim Shady’s path was always going to come to a tragic end. “His complex and tortured existence has come to a close. And the legacy he leaves behind is no closer to resolution than the manner in which the character departed this world. May he truly find the peace in an afterlife that he could not find on Earth.”

During a 1999 interview with Video Music Box, the Detroit legend revealed that Slim Shady allowed him to free up his creative impulses without having to worry about whether they went too far. “Everybody’s got two sides to them. Slim Shady’s just an angry side for me to vent. Eminem is just me. When I sit down with a pen, sometimes I write Eminem rhymes, sometimes I write Slim Shady rhymes. It depends on what type of mood I’m in that day.” Two and a half decades later, it seems like Em is finally ready to let go of the Slim Shady safety net. Check out the newspaper below:

Symba calls Eminem GOAT, names his favorite Em verse, says he learned a lot from Em

Couple of years ago, San Francisco Bay Area, California-born rapper Symba, who was cosigned by Dr. Dre by posting his freestyle on Instagram with the caption: “One of my new favorites,” did an interview on Revolt where he declared himself better rapper than Eminem: “I respect Eminem on a level as a man but as a rapper… I feel like I could name five better rappers. The Slim Shady LP, The Marshall Mathers LP, The Eminem Show. It’s fire. It’s fire but you want my honest opinion? Yes, I’m better than Eminem. Anybody can rhyme words. What are you saying? Hey, the girl that’s yelling, rap me an Eminem verse! She got quiet.”

During a recent episode of Connect The Dots podcast Symba responded to a backlash: “Shout out to Marshall Mathers. If you ask any NBA player who’s better than him, they gonna say nobody. It’s a competitive spirit that we have. Now, that does not take away from the legend and an icon and all the work Eminem has put in. But I was asked the question and they gut the clip up at certain way that made it look like I was going at one of the GOATs. But it was not that at all.” said Symba.

Then he continued: “I respect Em. I got a lot of respect for Em. Learned a lot from him. I worked with Dr. Dre and Dre told me a lot about Em. But when they were asking me, I don’t feel like nobody in this world is better than me as a rapper. That’s just how I feel. But shout out to GOAT Em.”

Later in the interview, Symba named his favorite Eminem verse and revealed that he learned a lot from Slim Shady: “My favorite verse is ‘Reggie, Jay-Z, Tupac and Biggie, Andre from Outkast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas and then me but in this industry I’m a cause of a lot of envy so when I’m not put on this list, this s–t not offend me, that’s why you see me walk around like nothing’s bothering me.’ Eminem taught me how to have character. So, the whole narrative of Symba don’t like Eminem, that’s false. That’s cap. I learned a lot from Em.” You can watch the interview below:
