Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner has often confessed to being a big-time Eminem fan.
She never feels shy to express her admiration to one of the greatest hip-hop artists in history and today she absolutely killed it.
To show support to Eminem’s Super Bowl Halftime show performance, Sophie Turner put Slim Shady t-shirt, drink Eminem coffee and eat Eminem’s Mom’s Spaghetti with his husband Joe Jonas.
In the caption of the photo we read a viral joke that has been spreading around the net for couple of weeks now: “I heard there is a football game at Eminem concert today.”
The Hollywood Reporter’s ex journalist and founding partner of Puck News, Matthew Belloni says on Twitter: Eminem wanted to take a knee during halftime today. The NFL said no way. The backstage clash reveals a larger truth about how the league uses legal threats as image management.”
In the article, published in Puck News, editor Eriq Gardner says: NFL didn’t just get these hip-hop stars to perform for free but in fact, this year it’s costing Dr. Dre money, even though he’s got no new album or tour to promote. Hip-hop mogul has put up most of the $7 million budget himself and bought an extra SoFi Stadium box for friends to watch.
But it hasn’t exactly been an easy ride. In the weeks leading up to the Super Bowl, Dre has gone back and forth with league officials about the lyrics and content of the songs that he could perform onstage. And it goes beyond curse words. A source close to the artist complained that Dre was being “disgustingly censored.” How? The league apparently didn’t want its premier event to turn into a divisive culture war moment. In particular, I’m told, N.F.L. representatives indicated to Dre during rehearsals that they weren’t comfortable with a lyric from his signature 1999 hit, Still D.R.E., which states that he’s “still not loving police.”
That line harkens to Dre’s time as leader of N.W.A., when the seminal hip-hop group released the controversial song, F**k Tha Police. At one point, the NFL told Dre he couldn’t say the line at all, but as of this writing, Dre is optimistic that “police” might make the cut of “accepted” lyrics. Meanwhile, the league nixed a plan by Eminem to kneel, Colin Kaepernick-style. Organizers also flagged something that Snoop Dogg was set to wear as possibly appearing gang-related.

Kanye West is currently on the attack, expressing his anger towards Pete Davidson.

Mike Tyson has recently sat down with DJ Whoo Kid on Shade 45 for Super Bowl special where the two briefly talked about Eminem.
“Eminem is just a beautiful humble person. I know in the past he has been through a lot in life but he overcame it he’s now as healthy as he can. I’m very grateful he was in my podcast.” says one of the greatest boxers of all time.
When Whoo Kid asked about the “Godzilla” video, here is what Tyson replied:
“Did I really punch him? Maybe a little bit but by accident. Not the real full. They told me to do it that way.”
You can listen to the interview and watch “Godzilla,” music video right after the jump below:
Eminem, Mr. Porter and Paul Rosenberg has recently sat down with DJ Whoo Kid on Shade 45 for Super Bowl special where the team had fun time as Eminem brought back Slim Shady for few minutes.
“You don’t have Eminem here. You have Slim Shady. Slim Shady is actually sitting here with the clothes off. I’m trying to fit an outfit but no matter what happens, everytime I get naked again I go like ‘oh this is the best outfit for Super Bowl… Would you like to throw up in the middle of the interview?” says Eminem.
Yesterday, at the Super Bowl press conference, Dr. Dre revealed he had to talk Eminem about not taking his penis out during the performance. It seems he was not joking 🙂
“I just wonder if the NFL is gonna be cool with that that I come on stage naked.” Eminem added. “This is what I was gonna say to the NFL, I’m sorry, I tried so many outfits and I didn’t like any of them. What was I supposed to do?”
Later Eminem said Slim Shady does not give a f**k about performing at Super Bowl before showing love to Mary J. Blige.
“She is dope. I’ve had some interesting conversations with her too on some Tupac s**t and stuff like that. She will come out and kill it.” said Eminem.
Former The Source Magazine employee, Mr. Mecc has recalled Benzino’s reaction when Eminem’s diss record arrived during the interview with Math Hoffa on My Expert Opinion with Vlad as a special guest.
“The day Eminem dropped his diss-record, I was trying to figure out what the next move was. I’m on a computer and message boards, which is what we had at that time, were going nuts. All of Eminem’s fans of which he had millions were talking about not just Benzino, which would have been cool on its own had he been just a rapper having a beef with another rapper. We ahd no problem but the fact that he involved The Source magazine and told everybody he was a co-owner and called himself five mic giver and all these other good s**t…HELL NO…”
“Once Benzino involved his legitimate business with street slash rap s**t, it’s all collateral damage. If I bring my wife on stage and I diss you and you see my wife, now my wife is a part of your response. Now that The Source is involved, message boards are going up, 20, 30, 40 pages of random people from the internet insulting the s**t out of Benzino as much as they possible can but he got excited. He looked like he was enjoying it because I feel like it was Christmas for him when people were talking about him. And I just new I was getting fired once he made me show him those messages. In my head, I was going over my resume like what’s my next move, which bills am I going to cut off but no, he was super excited.” – said Mr. Mecc
Then Vlad continues how Benzino ruined his relationship with him after asking to do another interview about Eminem.
I know you don’t believe it too. I could not believe my eyes when I first saw this information in a closed Facebook group of Canibus but it seems official now.
Canibus will release his Eminem collaboration, described as “UNRELEASED SONG, not a blend, not a mix, not recycled nor ever heard before track,” produced by Dr. Dre as an NFT via his website.
On the website, we read: “At this session, the 4 Lucky Winners + all NFT customers will be the 1st to hear the CANIBUS NFT single featuring EMINEM and Produced by DR. DRE. Yes, this is an actual UNRELEASED SONG, not a blend, not a mix, not recycled nor ever heard before track with CANIBUS x EMINEM produced by Dr. Dre!!! As stated above, like the one of a kind WU-TANG CLAN album “Once Upon a Time in Shaolin”, this Unreleased Track will eventually be sold as an NFT exclusively to one buyer. Until that happens, CANINFT.COM raffle winner and all NFT customers from the site will be allowed to hear this monumental piece of history!”
It’s hard to believe because of Canibus and Eminem’s longtime beef that dates back to 1998, even before Eminem was signed to Dr. Dre. Em even mentions Canibus in one of his recent collaborations with Conway The Machine, on a track called “Bang” in which he raps: “Used to dream one day I’d be fuckin’ pink like a flamingo, that was back when I smoked Canibus, man, but it was tough, ’cause I was a fan of his so it sucked to hand him his a**.”
We are not sure when Canibus and Eminem recorded the track but it seems to be real.
You can check Canibus’ website for more details here and listen to his latest release below:
Eminem has recently sat down with Sway on Shade 45 to promote his Super Bowl Halftime show where he talked about relationship with Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre, his favorite Super Bowl performances, his plans in future and more!
On Kendrick Lamar
Kendrick is very top top tier lyricist. Not only for this generation but all time.
On Beyoncé
Beyoncé f**king destroyed the Super Bowl Halftime show.
On Snoop Dogg
Snoop is in every other commercial. You just can’t escape him. It’s great that he made himself to be this relevant to this day. It’s incredible. That’s crazy. Me and Snoop are good. We talked months ago about whole thing. We just set down and realized nobody wants a beef within their own camp. Snoop is Snoop man. I will say this about him too, he literally could be a stand up comedian. He’s still f**king funny. That thing he did with Animal Planet…Bro he’s like that constantly, when you are around him. It’s constant and never stops.
On Dr. Dre
My relationship with Dre is absolutely the same. I have not seen Dre for two years, I talk to him all the time but it’s like we could just pick up where we left off if we don’t see each other. It never stops. Our method is pretty much the same as it always been when we are in the studio together.
On his new album
I’m always working. I’m always working on something. And when I’m done working on it, we usually put it out. (If we told you it would not be too much of a surprise – Paul Rosenberg added)
Eminem’s Super Bowl exclusive interview with Sway In The Morning airs on Shade 45 radio channel today at 3pm ET.

Additionally, Eminem told Sway Calloway that he’s rooting for the Los Angeles Rams because of Matthew Stafford’s Detroit connection.
