There’s always a lot of buzz surrounding the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony and this year’s event was one of the books. The class of 2022 includes such music legends as Dolly Parton, Eminem, and Lionel Richie.

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ceremony took place at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles this past weekend. The list of recipients also included the iconic synth-pop band Duran Duran, singer-songwriter Carly Simon, new wave duo Eurythmics and rock star Pat Benatar.

Parton’s speech was the most memorable moment of the night. She opened it by jokingly saying, “I’m a rock star now!” and reflected on her hesitation to accept this honor.

“Back when they said they were gonna put me in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I didn’t really feel like I had done enough to deserve that. And I didn’t understand at the time that it’s about more than that. But I’m just honored and so proud to be here tonight,” said Parton.

Parton also gave an explosive performance at the ceremony, with live renditions of songs “Rockin’ Years” and “Jolene”. Several inductees joined her for the star-studded performance of “Jolene”, including Pat Benatar and Eurythmics’ Annie Lennox.

We can always count on Super Bowl halftime show headliners to rock our world with their act, but this year’s performers took things to a whole new level. Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, and Mary J. Blige took the reins this year and brought old-school hip-hop to their epic performance.

Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg opened the halftime show with their collaboration “The Next Episode” and proceeded with the cover of 2Pac’s “California Love”. They were followed by a guest performer by 50 Cent, who got the crowd wild with the rendition of his smash hit “In Da Club”.

Things got even more amazing from there, and Mary J. Blige gave us one of the night’s most unforgettable moments while performing “Family Affair” and “No More Drama”. She was followed by Kendrick Lamar, who did a great job representing a new generation of hip-hop.

He joined Eminem for “Forgot About Dre” before leaving the stage and letting the fellow rapper deliver a show-stopping rendition of his hit song “Lose Yourself”. The halftime show ended with all five headliners performing a joint rendition of “Still D.R.E.”

The Super Bowl LVI was held on February 13th, at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, with the Los Angeles Rams defeating the Cincinnati Bengals to win the title.

There are always a lot of rumors flying around about potential Super Bowl halftime show performers, but no one could’ve predicted what’s coming our way next year. The show’s lineup has been unveiled and it includes not one, not two, but five hip-hop superstars.

Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar, Eminem, and Mary J. Blige will be in charge of headlining the upcoming Super Bowl LVI halftime show. Pepsi’s VP of marketing, Todd Kaplan, is describing the upcoming show as an epic, unforgettable celebration of the impact hip hop has today.

“The Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show has become a landmark cultural moment, bringing about some of the most iconic performances over the years… We are thrilled to bring together such an incredible array of talented, record-breaking musicians to put on a performance for the ages,” said Kaplan in a statement.

Pepsi and NFL assembled this lineup along with Jay-Z’s company Roc Nation and they’re describing the upcoming show as a larger-than-life performance of hits from the quintet’s collective catalog. For some of the artists, Super Bowl LVI hits close to home because it will be the first in nearly three decades to be held in the Los Angeles area. The Big Game will take place on February 13th, 2022 at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.

Eminem’s latest album features several high-profile collaborations, but one of them carries more weight than others. “Godzilla” is one of the last tracks recorded by the late rapper Juice WRLD, and it finally has an epic music video it deserves.

Cole Bennett, who directed several of Juice WRLD’s videos, joined forces with Eminem and paid homage to the “Lucid Dreams” singer at the very end of the video, with cue cards that thanked him “for changing the wrld” and promised he’ll be loved and remembered forever.

The “Godzilla” video racked up 13 million views on YouTube in the first 24 hours, and the fact that Eminem had several other superstars by his side didn’t hurt his chances. Mike Tyson and Dr. Dre agreed to make surprise appearances in the rapper’s latest video.

“Godzilla” was featured on Eminem’s new album Music to Be Murdered By, and it was a huge hit long before this video was released. It became a viral sensation thanks to the “Godzilla Challenge” and reached no. 3 at the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Eminem’s fans couldn’t believe what they were seeing when he dropped his tenth studio album Kamikaze completely unannounced. The famous rapper is not finished amazing the fans, and his latest surprise is a trippy music video for new song “Fall”.

The clip starts with Slim Shady sitting in a car looking at all the negative reviews his previous album received. Fed up with all the negativity, he tosses his phone and begins to roam the streets, but quickly realizes he’s being followed by a mysterious shadowy figure which crawled out of a stranger’s tablet.

Eminem tries to escape the Venomesque creature, only to realize there’s no way out. He ends up being cornered by the smoke monster, which possesses his body at the end of the video. The rapper finds a way to get rid of it by leaping through the window and landing on his feet.

“Fall” is obviously metaphorical, but it’s still crystal clear what Eminem tried to say with it. It’s his version of “Look What You Made Me Do”, which takes aim at everyone who dared to cross him. It disses the critics and some of his fellow rappers, and it’s the perfect reflection of Kamikaze as a whole.

Eminem took to Instagram on Saturday to celebrate his sobriety, sharing a photo of himself holding up a 10-year AA medallion he received for his achievement.

“Celebrated my 10 years yesterday,” he wrote. The token features the traditional Alcoholics Anonymous triangle of “unity,” “service,” and “recovery,” along with an X in the center, the Roman numeral for 10.

Celebrated my 10 years yesterday.

A post shared by Marshall Mathers (@eminem) on

The “Lose Yourself” rapper, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, has been vocal about the events that led him to getting sober, particularly the time he accidentally overdosed in 2007.

“I overdosed on pills, and I went into the hospital. I was close to 230 pounds. I’m not sure how I got so big, but I have ideas. The coating on the Vicodin and the Valium I’d been taking for years leaves a hole in your stomach, so to avoid a stomachache, I was constantly eating — and eating badly,” Eminem told Men’s Journal in 2015.

“When I got out of rehab, I needed to lose weight, but I also needed to figure out a way to function sober. Unless I was blitzed out of my mind, I had trouble sleeping. So I started running. It gave me a natural endorphin high, but it also helped me sleep, so it was perfect,” the 45-year-old rapper said at the time.

“It’s easy to understand how people replace addiction with exercise. One addiction for another but one that’s good for them,” he continued.

In December, Eminem opened up to Shade 45, a SiriusXM radio station he produced, about one of the tracks in his new album, Revival.

“If you listen to ‘Castle’ all the way to the end, you hear me taking pills and falling,” Eminem said. “That was, you know, the recreation of me falling in the bathroom, and then waking up in the hospital, not knowing what the f**k was going on. I had tubes in me, and I was angry, and I couldn’t talk.”

The Grammy award-winning artist also added that the album’s final track, “Arose,” ends with the sound of pills being flushed down the toilet, a sign of his decision to get sober.

Eminem‘s latest album Revival has scored the No. 1 on the charts in its debut week. This is the eighth time in his career this happens – every single one of Eminem’s albums since 2000’s The Marshall Mathers LP has scored the first place.

Shady is certainly still wildly popular, but he’s recently mentioned he might be wrapping up his career with Revival. “I don’t know. I’m at a funny place, you know?” he said in an NPR interview. “Hip-hop has been around for a long time but I don’t know if it’s really been around long enough to see how long someone could actually go for. You’ve still got guys like me and Jay-Z. Redman still has it, to me. I’m not sure what I’m going to do next, but I’m still passionate about music, and hip-hop.”

With this achievement, Eminem tied with some other artists who have also had eight No. 1 albums, such as U2, Madonna and Kenny Chesney. The record holders are the legendary Beatles with 19 No.1 albums in their career.

Devon Sawa took to Twitter on Wednesday to answer a fan’s question why he was cast in Eminem’s iconic music video, Stan in 2000.

“Dre loved FD,” Sawa replied, noting Dr. Dre’s interest for the Final Destination franchise. The actor starred in the first movie of the horror series the same year Eminem’s Marshall Mathers LP was released.

In the video, Stan is an obsessed fan of the rapper who wrote threatening letters to Eminem, neglects his pregnant girlfriend and ultimately drives his car off of a bridge with her inside in an effort to make the rapper notice him, ET reports.

Sawa, who recently starred on ABC drama series Somewhere Between, said he had little trouble harnessing the troubled character, saying, “I was already a little dark in my early 20s.” Despite the disturbing material, the atmosphere on the set of “Stan” was “a huge party.”

“Fall” is obviously metaphorical, but it’s still crystal clear what Eminem tried to say with it. It’s his version of “Look What You Made Me Do”, which takes aim at everyone who dared to cross him. It disses the critics and some of his fellow rappers, and it’s the perfect reflection of Kamikaze as a whole.

Eminem took to Instagram on Saturday to celebrate his sobriety, sharing a photo of himself holding up a 10-year AA medallion he received for his achievement.

“Celebrated my 10 years yesterday,” he wrote. The token features the traditional Alcoholics Anonymous triangle of “unity,” “service,” and “recovery,” along with an X in the center, the Roman numeral for 10.

Celebrated my 10 years yesterday.

A post shared by Marshall Mathers (@eminem) on

The “Lose Yourself” rapper, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, has been vocal about the events that led him to getting sober, particularly the time he accidentally overdosed in 2007.

“I overdosed on pills, and I went into the hospital. I was close to 230 pounds. I’m not sure how I got so big, but I have ideas. The coating on the Vicodin and the Valium I’d been taking for years leaves a hole in your stomach, so to avoid a stomachache, I was constantly eating — and eating badly,” Eminem told Men’s Journal in 2015.

“When I got out of rehab, I needed to lose weight, but I also needed to figure out a way to function sober. Unless I was blitzed out of my mind, I had trouble sleeping. So I started running. It gave me a natural endorphin high, but it also helped me sleep, so it was perfect,” the 45-year-old rapper said at the time.

“It’s easy to understand how people replace addiction with exercise. One addiction for another but one that’s good for them,” he continued.

In December, Eminem opened up to Shade 45, a SiriusXM radio station he produced, about one of the tracks in his new album, Revival.

“If you listen to ‘Castle’ all the way to the end, you hear me taking pills and falling,” Eminem said. “That was, you know, the recreation of me falling in the bathroom, and then waking up in the hospital, not knowing what the f**k was going on. I had tubes in me, and I was angry, and I couldn’t talk.”

The Grammy award-winning artist also added that the album’s final track, “Arose,” ends with the sound of pills being flushed down the toilet, a sign of his decision to get sober.

Eminem‘s latest album Revival has scored the No. 1 on the charts in its debut week. This is the eighth time in his career this happens – every single one of Eminem’s albums since 2000’s The Marshall Mathers LP has scored the first place.

Shady is certainly still wildly popular, but he’s recently mentioned he might be wrapping up his career with Revival. “I don’t know. I’m at a funny place, you know?” he said in an NPR interview. “Hip-hop has been around for a long time but I don’t know if it’s really been around long enough to see how long someone could actually go for. You’ve still got guys like me and Jay-Z. Redman still has it, to me. I’m not sure what I’m going to do next, but I’m still passionate about music, and hip-hop.”

With this achievement, Eminem tied with some other artists who have also had eight No. 1 albums, such as U2, Madonna and Kenny Chesney. The record holders are the legendary Beatles with 19 No.1 albums in their career.

Devon Sawa took to Twitter on Wednesday to answer a fan’s question why he was cast in Eminem’s iconic music video, Stan in 2000.

“Dre loved FD,” Sawa replied, noting Dr. Dre’s interest for the Final Destination franchise. The actor starred in the first movie of the horror series the same year Eminem’s Marshall Mathers LP was released.

In the video, Stan is an obsessed fan of the rapper who wrote threatening letters to Eminem, neglects his pregnant girlfriend and ultimately drives his car off of a bridge with her inside in an effort to make the rapper notice him, ET reports.

Sawa, who recently starred on ABC drama series Somewhere Between, said he had little trouble harnessing the troubled character, saying, “I was already a little dark in my early 20s.” Despite the disturbing material, the atmosphere on the set of “Stan” was “a huge party.”
