Eminem has recently sat down with SiriusXM’s Sway Calloway ahead of his upcoming Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show performance on Shade 45’s Sway In The Morning show.
During their conversation, Eminem spoke about how performing on live TV is nerve-wracking.
“It’s f**in nerve-wrecking. This is like, to me he there is nothing more final than live TV. If you f**k up, your f**k up is there forever.” says Marshall.
He also tells how he feels about Kendrick Lamar and how he felt when Dr. Dre first approached him with the Super Bowl Halftime Show idea. Eminem also told Sway Calloway that he’s rooting for the Los Angeles Rams because of Matthew Stafford’s Detroit connection.
“Kendrick Lamar is very top top tier of lyricist, not just this generation but all time.”

Eminem is making his idols really proud. This year alone, Marshall Mathers gets nominated for Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame and he is about to perform at Super Bowl Halftime show with Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar.
Slim Shady received enormous support for Rock Hall nomination from his peers, including Royce Da 5’9″, Busta Rhymes and Kxng Crooked.
It seems Ice-T feels the same way as the legendary rapper once again showed his appreciation to Eminem on Twitter: “Proud of Eminem. Been down with him from the very start.” – wrote the hip-hop icon in the caption while retweeting a picture of himself and Eminem.
Mary J. Blige is about to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime Show with Eminem this weekend, and she is using Slim Shady’s lyrics to explain why she does not care about not being paid for the performance.
It is known that artists aren’t getting paid to play at the Super Bowl but it is worth far more than most people realize, with Mary J. Blige revealing that she’ll be making money from the forthcoming shows for the rest of her life.
“Listen, you gonna be paid for the rest of your life off of this. They don’t have to pay me. But if it was paying it would be a lot of money. But I’m good. This is the opportunity of a lifetime. Eminem says that in ‘Lose Yourself,’ this is the opportunity of a lifetime.” she said during the interview on The Cruz Show.
“43 Grammys, 19 No. 1 Billboard albums and 5 legendary artists on the biggest stage in Los Angeles,” is how NFL, Pepsi and Roc Nation revealed the lineup for the Pepsi Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show, featuring Dr. Dre, Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige.
While fans are discussing which songs the legendary musicians should perform, the sound of 50 Cent’s “In Da Club” can be heard from SoFi Stadium rehearsals.
This might be a sound check or 50 Cent is going to be a special guest at Super Bowl.

Eminem was almost casted in “Mad Max: Fury Road” movie instead Tom Hardy, according to NY Times writer Kyle Buchanan’s book, “Blood, Sweat & Chrome: The Wild and True Story of ‘Mad Max: Fury Road,’” now excerpted in Vulture magazine.
Production and development executive Petrina Hull revealed that fans wanted Sam Worthington to take over the role of Mad Max. Heath Ledger was also “in the picture” prior to his death in 2008. But lead storyboard artist Mark Sexton recalled a very different favored leading person: Eminem.
“This is something I do not hear about very much and that George never admits, but I have a very, very, very strong memory of George talking about Eminem for Max.” said Mark.
George Miller the director of the movie continued: “He had done ‘8 Mile,’ and I found that really interesting. I thought, ‘He has got that quality.’ We had done the first ‘Happy Feet’ with the late Brittany Murphy, and she had done ‘8 Mile,’ so I asked her what he was like and would this be something really interesting for him? She had no reservations about saying what a wonderful talent he is.
Mark added: “I got brought back in to redraw a bunch of storyboards in March 2007 and do a bunch of cut-and-pastes to put blond hair on Max.”
Miller continued: “We did get in touch with him, though. That’s as far as it went because we were going to shoot it in Australia at that point, and he simply didn’t want to leave home. I think he had the impression that if he could do it out of his home state, then he’d be up for it.”
Miller also personally met with Rihanna to discuss the role of Imperator Furiosa, played by Charlize Theron: “Usually, actors turn up dressed very casually, but boy, Rihanna looked spectacular when she walked in. I’m not sure she was even aware of the content of the movie, so she dressed up as Rihanna, which was the right thing to do.”
Eminem turned down many movies for the same reason. Check the list here.
Eminem has just arrived at SoFi Stadium for rehearsal, at the place where Dr. Dre, Slim Shady, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige will be performing at Super Bowl Halftime show on February 13.
First pictures and videos from behind the scenes and rehearsal are slowly spreading in the internet. Check some of them below and stay tuned for more content!
Back in 2020, in an interview with VladTV, Nick Cannon said he wanted to physically harm Eminem at one point when they were beefing in 2009.
Eminem responded to Nick in a verse for Fat Joe’s “Lord Above” song in which he raps: “I know me and Mariah didn’t end on a high note but that other dude’s whipped, that pu**y got him neutered/Tryna tell him his chicks a nut ‘fore he got his jewels clipped/Almost got my caboose kicked/Fool, quit, you not gon’ do s**t/I let her chop my balls off too before I lost to you, Nick (eunuch).”
Cannon fired back to Eminem with not one but three diss tracks: “The Invitation,” “Pray For Him” and “Canceled: The Invitation” but Eminem remained silent aside from two tweets, debunking Cannon’s fake bars.
In a recent interview with HipHopDX, Nick admitted he did all these to get Slim Shady on his “Wild ‘N Out” show.
“I was a little overzealous. I was a little heavy-handed. I’m going to say a couple of things. First of all, I love Eminem as an artist. Slim Shady LP, The Marshall Mathers LP — those are some of my favorite albums. But I think there was a lot that went on there. One, the whole goal was to get him to come on Wild N’ Out and acknowledge it. So there was a mission to it because I was like, ‘Yo, that’d be the most amazing show ever.’ It was an invitation to come on the show. But also, a little bit, what was that, 2018 or something like that or whatever, I was playing the game. In 2008, I was really upset about what he had said about my wife at the time.”
“And I was legitimately hot and wanted to fight and all. I was a different guy. So I was mad. And then I think a lot of that started to get stirred up again where the line of, I got so much to say, but I had to know this is entertainment. And there’s a mission here. But at the end of the day, I ain’t going to stand for no disrespect either. So in hindsight, I probably would’ve been a little bit more strategic and let maybe one or two of them linger. But to me, I showed up with a cannon to a knife fight. And he started it [laughs]. I don’t say anything. But I was like, ‘I got time today, Marshall.’” – said Cannon.
On the 13th of February, Dr. Dre, Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige will perform at the Super Bowl Halftime show at SoFi Stadium in California.

“Eminem was nominated to be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame and that’s good. We need him in there. We need one of the greatest wordsmiths alive to be in Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. Period, point-blank. A Tribe Called Quest too. Need them in there. Those are the vibes.” – said Crooked
“Now guess who else we need in there? We need Rakim the god emcee in there. Hip-hop and lyricism would be very different if that great mind never showed up. Guess who else we need? Snoop Dogg.” – Crooked added.
Kuniva shared Eminem’s “Till I Collapse” on his Instagram with the caption: “So proud of my brother here. Coming from where we came from and having those dreams of making it…to being nominated for THIS. My guy for life! Legend! Shady for life.”
After reportedly damaging his ex girlfriend’s car, Young Buck was arrested and placed into a local Nashville, Tennessee jail for vandalism.
According to TMZ, the incident occurred on Wednesday. Based on the rapper’s arrest affidavit, his ex-girlfriend reported a domestic disturbance. Buck had texted her earlier in the day to let her know he was coming over, but when he didn’t hear back, she claims he began kicking her front door.
The event was caught on camera, and police confirmed that her car had been damaged. Buck was eventually traced down while driving and arrested by police. He was held on a $1,000 bond, but has since been freed.
Later, 50 Cent took to Instagram, on Thursday, where he reacted to Young Buck’s arrest for vandalism in Nashville, with the caption: “Buck B-Unit Bi sexual Unit. Leave that girl alone. She didn’t know he had all this shit going on, none of us did. And He best be coming up wit my money.”
Young Buck hit back to 50 Cent with a new diss-track titled “It’s Nothing” which you can bump below:
The undefeated UFC Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov has recently sat down on FULL SEND PODCAST to talk about many topics, including what type of music he likes.
At one point, the interviewer asked if he listens to Drake, Future or MoneyBagg Yo. Here is what he replied:
“Honestly, I don’t even…Like, before he was in Conor’s corner right? People were saying this guy is very famous. I swear I did not know this guy. I don’t know this guy. Maybe I heard his music somewhere in the street or somewhere but I didn’t know this guy.” – said Khabib
“MoneyBagg? Who is this guy? Of course I listened to rap before, like Eminem, 50 Cent, DMX, Tupac but I’m gonna be honest, it’s a long time I have not listened to music.” – Khabib added
Deaf Detroit rapper Sean Forbes set to perform sign-language interpretations of Dr. Dre, Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige at L.A.’s SoFi Stadium, alongside fellow deaf rapper Warren (WaWa) Snipe.
It’s the first time in NFL history that sign-language performances have been included in the halftime show.
Forbes can’t disclose much about the closely guarded halftime set, but he does know he’ll be accompanying the appearances of Eminem and Snoop Dogg. He heads to Los Angeles on Sunday for a week of rehearsals.
The young Detroit rapper has a long connection to Eminem — a link that began with his father, who was close to some of the people inside Slim Shady’s camp.
“So this is very much a full-circle moment, being from Detroit, being part of the Eminem camp — or even going back to being 12 and listening to N.W.A., Dre and Snoop on my Walkman,” Forbes told to Detroit Free Press.
