Erick Sermon says he’d go harder if he knew Eminem was on Nas’ “EPMD 2” track

EPMD’s Erick Sermon has recently visited Math Hoffa on his My Expert Opinion where he talked about how Nas’ “EPMD 2” with Eminem came about.

“Nas had called for the permission to use EPMD name, that happened, and then Hit-Boy was like ‘yo, you wanna jump on the record?’ I’m like ‘hell yeah, I jump on the song.'” said Erick Sermon.

Then he continued: “I really didn’t even know about what to do [write] so I was trying to go on what Nas was talking about. It was Covid. So, the s–t was going on so I was trying to being political with that cause I probably would have came different. Especially knowing that Eminem was coming up behind me.”

“So, you know, MCing, I don’t give a f–k if I can’t get him. I’m not gonna do that. If I know that Em is right there [Em is reckless]. And then, Nas said, ‘oh yeah, Eric, I put Em on the record.’ I was like ‘HUH?!’ We had 16 [bars] but he cut it because Em was going long. So, he only gave us 8. But it was cool. I respect that he called it EPMD. That was cool.”

“I would have kept saying metaphors, I would have kept going. Causse, I’m here, I wrote the whole thing so I would have went cause I’m not afraid.” Erick Sermon added.

Britney Spears mentions Eminem’s “Kim” in her new book

Britney Spears has recently released her much-anticipated memoir, “The Woman in Me,” which sold 1.1 million copies in all formats in the United States in its first week on sale, the book’s publisher, Gallery Books, announced on Wednesday.

The early sales number puts Spears’s book in the ballpark of some of the best-selling celebrity memoirs in recent years. In the same time frame, Prince Harry’s memoir sold 1.6 million copies in the United States, while that of Mary Trump, former president Donald J. Trump’s niece, sold 1.4 million when it debuted in 2020.

As Google Books describes: In June 2021, the whole world was listening as Britney Spears spoke in open court. The impact of sharing her voice—her truth—was undeniable, and it changed the course of her life and the lives of countless others. The Woman in Me reveals for the first time her incredible journey—and the strength at the core of one of the greatest performers in pop music history.

Surprisingly, there is a mention of Eminem and his ex-wife in the book. You can read the paragraph below:

“The thought of me betraying him gave the album more angst, gave it a purpose: s–t-talking an unfaithful woman. The hip-hop world of that era loved a storyline with the theme ‘F–k you, b–ch!’ Getting revenge on women for perceived disrespect was all the rage at that time. Eminem’s violent revenge song “Kim” was huge. The only problem with the narrative was that, in our case, it wasn’t like that.” – Britney Spears.

Eminem’s Kim mentioned in Britney Spears’ new book
byu/EminemsDaughterSucks inEminem

“Kim” is a song by Eminem that appears on his 2000 classic album The Marshall Mathers LP. The song reflects intense anger and hatred toward his then-wife Kim Mathers and features Eminem imitating her voice, and ends with him murdering her and later putting her body in the trunk of his car.

“Kim” was the first song Eminem recorded for the album, shortly after finishing work on The Slim Shady LP in late 1998. He wrote it, along with “’97 Bonnie & Clyde” (where Eminem and his daughter go to the lake to dispose of Kim’s dead body), when he and Kim were having relationship problems and Kim was preventing him from seeing his daughter Hailie. Despite its controversial graphic content, it is often highlighted as one of Eminem’s most memorable songs.

The expanded edition of MMLP2 also includes instrumentals of all the singles of the albums: “Survival,” “Berzerk,” “The Monster,” featuring Rihanna, “Rap God,” and “Headlights.”

“Don’t Front” is produced by Katalyst. It samples the beat from the 1993 song “I Got Cha Opin” by New York group Black Moon with the same hook by Buckshot.

Watch: DJ Khaled’s reaction after Eminem sends him “Mom’s Spaghetti” sauce

Last week, Detroit legend Eminem announced on social media that jars of his “Mom’s Spaghetti” Pasta Sauce would launch through the Mom’s Spaghetti official website.

When the sauce popped up on the website last Thursday for orders, the sauce quickly sold out within hours, said Curt Catallo, co-owner of Union Joints restaurant group and partner in the sauce and the Mom’s Spaghetti joint inside the group’s Union Assembly restaurant downtown on Woodward.

Mom’s Spaghetti also got a shoutout during last night’s ABC/ESPN “Monday Night Football” broadcast talking about Eminem’s restaurant and meatballs, according to Detroit Free Press.

It seems Slim Shady sent the pasta sauce to his friends before it got sold out and DJ Khaled is one of them who received it as a gift. In the video shared on his social media account, Miami-based hype man says: “Bless up the legendary Eminem. Shout out to Paul. Eminem, thank you for this beautiful gift. ‘Mom’s Spaghetti pasta sauce. Chef Melissa, please, make me some spaghetti. Eminem, thank you brother. Paul, nothing but love brother, bless up.”

“Lose Yourself” being played as Eminem enters Boulevard Hall during Fury & Ngannou fight

Ngannou was making his boxing debut on Saturday, October 28, against The Gypsy King, who retained his belt in 2022 by defeating Derek Chisora. Lucky for Fury, his WBC title was not on the line in this fight.

This was the first time that a world-class boxer came up against an MMA fighter since 2017, when Floyd Mayweather came up against Conor “The Notorious” McGregor.

With such a high stakes fight on the cards, celebrities flocked the Boulevard Hall in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia to perhaps get a taste of the highly-hyped fight.

For some like legendary boxer Mike Tyson, he was there as more than just a spectator as he was the one who trained Ngannou in the build up to the fight.

There was also the presence of past and present UFC fighters including Conor McGregor, Israel Adesanya and Chuck Liddell, while other boxing stars like Oscar De La Hoya, Evander Holyfield and Larry Holmes also graced the arena with their presence.

Football was also well represented as both Cristiano Ronaldo and Brazilian legend Ronaldo Nazario were in attendance; while CR7’s former teammate Rio Ferdinand was also spotted exchanging niceties with the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.

Of course, Hip-Hop did not miss the chance to see the “Battle Of The Baddest,” as Eminem, Kanye West and Lil Baby were in presence. The Boulevard arena also enjoyed “Lose Yourself” as Slim Shady, Royce 5’9″ and Paul Rosenberg walked in to occupy their seats.
