At the Super Bowl 2022 in Inglewood, Eminem and Al Michaels exchanged some beautiful words.
Eminem, alongside Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige performed at halftime — taking a knee despite allegations that the NFL barred him from alluding to Colin Kaepernick’s social justice protests; the NFL later denied the rumors.
“You’re the best in show,” Michaels told Eminem.
“You’re the GOAT [greatest of all-time],” Eminem responded quickly. “I’m telling you, I was telling your wife — since I was a little kid, all the way until now, I watch s**tty games when you’re doing them, just because, right?”
Eminem brought up the “rumor” that Michaels may retire.
“I’ll be somewhere,” Michaels responded.
“You’re a long way from retiring,” Eminem concurred. You can watch the video below

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.

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.
Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre are about to hit the Super Bowl stage with Eminem, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar and it seems their DMs are full of messages of people asking for the tickets of the show, which averagely costs $9,000.
Few days ago, Snoop responded to ticket-hungry people with a video clip where the iconic rapper says: “You all need to stop. Ni**as texting me out of blue, calling me out of blue. One ni**a just called me like ‘hey man how you doing dawg, how’s family, you looking good, I’ve seen commercials and s**t. You think you got extra tickets for Super Bowl?’ No ni**a, I don’t! Stop! I ran out of tickets. Oh, I do got a ticket, I got a ticket for you to stand in line and suck this d**k!”
But today, Dre and Snoop took a different approach. The two shared pictures of the banner that says: “Straight Outta Tickets,” playing on ‘Straight Outta Compton” words.
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)
