Mary J. Blige quotes Eminem lyrics to explain why not being paid for Super Bowl show doesn’t bother her

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.

Deaf Detroit rapper Sean Forbes set to perform with Eminem & Snoop Dogg at Super Bowl 2022

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.

Couple of days ago, Pepsi released the trailer of Super Bowl 2022, titled “The Call,” featuring Dr. Dre, Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige.

The trailer features a musical compilation of iconic tracks “Rap God,” “The Next Episode,” “Family Affair,” “HUMBLE.,” “Still D.R.E.,” and “California Love.”

As you know, in the song “Rap God,” Eminem pays homage to American female rap group, J.J. Fad with a ‘supersonic’ speed: “Lyrics comin’ at you at supersonic speed (J.J. Fad)..”

Now that the song was used in a trailer of Super Bowl, it’s a payday for J.J. Fad because of the royalty laws.

Rialto, California girls posted a video on TikTok expressing gratitude to Eminem with a caption: “Thank you Eminem! We are once again honored!” On Twitter, they wrote: “So honored, humbled, and thankful to be payed homage to on the biggest stage in sports!! Thank you Eminem and Dr. Dre, we love y’all!!”

Dr. Dre might lose millions if his Super Bowl Show gets canceled due to COVID19

As TMZ reports, Dr. Dre might lose millions of dollars if his Super Bowl LVI halftime show gets canceled due to COVID19 regulations.

According to sources, Dre is spending his own money (like The Weeknd did) for the show to be unforgettable which is currently scheduled to go ahead on February 13, 2022 at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Doctor is bringing Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige with him.

But with the pandemic unfortunately still raging, the possibility of a cancelation is not completely out of the question. Sources close to the event tell TMZ that Dre has insurance to cover that outcome, but there’s an exclusion on any COVID-19 related cancelations. The Communicable Disease Exemption, which has been present in event cancelation insurance packages long before COVID-19 hit, means the insurance will not cover a coronavirus-related cancelation.

It was also reported that the National Football League is considering replacement venues for the game, because of California’s strict indoor mask mandate but NFL spokesperson has recently said that the Super Bowl will take place in L.A. as originally planned, per NBC Los Angeles.

DJ Vlad discusses why Eminem is allowed at Super Bowl after calling Tyler The Creator the ‘f- word’

Faizon Love has recently set down with DJ Vlad for an interview where the two talked about many things, including ‘cancel culture.’

DJ Vlad agrees to people who complain about why the cancel culture fired NFL’s Raiders coach Jon Gruden over the emails in which he used sexist, homophobic and transphobic language but Eminem is allowed to perform at NFL’s Halftime Show after calling Tyler The Creator the f- word in a song “Fall,” from Kamikaze album, released in 2018.

“What people now are pointing out when they are talking about NFL is, for example, at Halftime Show there’s gonna be Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar and Eminem and as recent as 2018 Eminem was saying fa**ot in his verses. He is rapping ‘Tyler The Creator I see why you call yourself a fa**ot, b**ch’ and this is recent Eminem. This is not 1998 Eminem. No, this is recent Eminem, so you are going to fire this coach over an old emails that was way before 2018 but Eminem could perform at NFL Halftime show, saying the f- word in a recent song and that’s okay. It’s a bit of slippery slope. This is weird ass cancel culture.”

“YouTube took down two of R. Kelly’s channels because of his conviction. So you gonna tell me that anyone that is convicted of something can’t be on YouTube? You gotta take down anyone with criminal record? Where is it going with this?” says DJ Vlad
