Kurupt reveals Eminem once helped him out of bad situation: “He’s a type of person Pac & Biggie was”

Kurupt has recently sat down with VLADTV where the legendary rapper shared his thoughts on 2022 Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime show performance and revealed Eminem once giving him a helping hand when he did not have to.

“Dr. Dre and Snoopy deserved that performance. So does Mary, Kendrick, that whole circle on front deserved it. They all accomplished so much in this game, opened up so many doors. Kendrick just began and he already opened up so many doors and that’s not even mentioning Em.”

“I was going through something one time and Em let me a helping hand and helped me to get out of bad situation I was in before. He didn’t have to do it, Cuz. He did that for me. That’s the type of person that Nip was, type of person Pac was, type of person Biggie was. They would never hesitate to lend a helping hand.”

When interviewer asked what exactly Eminem did for him, Kurupt did not concrete.

Kurupt is one of the hip-hop pioneers that Eminem holds in high regards as he raps on “Till I Collapse”: “It goes Reggie, Jay-Z, 2Pac and Biggie, Andre from OutKast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas and then me, But in this industry I’m the cause of a lot of envy, So when I’m not put on this list, the s**t does not offend me.”

Legendary rapper and producer Dr. Dre has spent the last 2 years working on at least a dozen albums’ worth of material.

After being asked a question about his output, the Compton  : “Ni**a, I got… Yeah, 247 songs during the pandemic, and then we paused and did a whole album with Marsha Ambrosius. That’s f**king nutso – and then we came back, and … I did the Grand Theft Auto s**t, and now we’re working on my ni**a Snoop Dogg. And you know, we are two days in right now and we’ve got, what, like six bangers?”

The “Grand Theft Auto shit” that Dre mentioned refers to the six songs he made for the Grand Theft Auto Online expansion The Contract, which was released last December and featured Dre as a character. Songs also featured guest appearances from Eminem, Anderson .Paak, Rick Ross, Nipsey Hussle, Snoop Dogg and Ty Dolla $ign.

ApeCoin gains 22% after Eminem & Snoop Dogg debuted ape-themed new single

Last Friday, Eminem and Snoop Dogg debuted the new single, “From the D 2 The LBC,” live on stage at ApeFest 2022, an annual gathering for BAYC and Mutant Ape Yacht Club (MAYC) holders.

The private festival took place in New York and also saw musical acts performances from Lil Wayne, Lil Baby, Future, LCD Soundsystem, Haim and others.

The prominent NFT collection’s native Ethereum token, ApeCoin, climbed over 22% overnight, according to data from CoinGecko. As of this writing, the coin was worth $4.92, down slightly from its morning peak of $5.26. In the last week, ApeCoin has risen some 35%.

The price increase signifies a minor rebound from what has otherwise been a disproportionately brutal month for the token, which recently fell some 65% at a pace distinct even for the current bear market.

Just in late April, ApeCoin’s price hit an all-time-high of almost $27 in anticipation of virtual land NFT sales for the BAYC’s metaverse game, Otherside. ApeCoin can be used by holders to vote on ApeCoin DAO governance proposals.

ApeCoin’s recent price spike may have been caused in part by the Friday release of a new music video by Eminem and Snoop Dogg, in which the legendary rappers and noted BAYC ambassadors transform into animated versions of their Bored Ape avatars. The music video, which trended on YouTube throughout the weekend, has garnered almost 9 million views.

Ireland fans sing popular football chant during 50 Cent’s concert in Dublin

50 Cent’s United Kingdom tour continues and the crowd’s admission has been immensely impressive so far!

Last week, 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.”

Couple of days ago, during his performance in Dublin, Ireland, Fifty made fans sing the popular football anthem “Ole Ole Ole” which was used for a song titled “Put ‘Em Under Pressure.” It was the official song to the Republic of Ireland national football team’s 1990 FIFA World Cup campaign in Italy.

Eminem drops “The King And I” featuring CeeLo Green off “Elvis” movie

“Elvis” is an upcoming biographical musical film directed by Baz Luhrmann, from a screenplay written by Luhrmann, Sam Bromell, Craig Pearce, and Jeremy Doner, with a story by Luhrmann and Doner.

The film chronicles the life and career of singer and actor Elvis Presley, from his early days as a child to becoming a pop star and movie star, as well as his complex relationship with his manager Colonel Tom Parker.

At the press conference of the movie, compared Elvis’ embrace of Black music to Eminem “Parker sees this kid who’s grown up in one of the white designated houses in the black community, and is really genuinely like Eminem. Eminem, of course, grew to prominence in the mid-to-late 1990s rapping on tracks alongside the likes of Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg, going on to become one of the biggest rappers alive, echoing Elvis’ movements in rock ‘n’ roll.” said Luhrmann.

It’s not a surprise the main theme song for the movie features Eminem’s titled “The King And I,” featuring CeeLo Green and produced by Dr. Dre and Luis Resto.

Couple of weeks ago, in a new interview with KTLA, Green revealed that Eminem gave him one night to write the hook of the song: ““Me and Eminem have been friends for years, I have longed for an opportunity to work with him. He said ‘hey man can you do this for me? I need it really quickly, I need it tonight.’ So when Eminem says he needs something tonight, you deliver.”

The single is finally out on all platforms, you can bump it below!
