(He also targets …

In a recent interview with Vulture, Eminem said he uses Grindr, the geolocation app primarily used by men who have sex with men (though it recently did a big virtue-signaling marketing show of trans/non-binary-inclusivity). Big if true from a man who once rapped, “My words are like a dagger with a jagged edge/That’ll…
In a pre-recorded freestyle rap that played at the BET Hip Hop Awards Tuesday night, Eminem took aim at Donald Trump, an immensely insecure and powerful man with an IQ.
Eminem released a new eight-minute-long campaign-themed song this week, and I’m just going to assume you didn’t make it six minutes and 13 seconds in, which is when Eminem returns to one of his favorite motifs: Christopher Reeve, the Superman actor who was paralyzed from the neck down in 1995 after being thrown from a…
In today’s Tweet Beat, Eminem joins every rapper ever in a viewing of Hamilton, Ciara is an unreal human being and someone please point Seth MacFarlane in the direction of Tumblr.

Police in Fresno, California arrested a 15-year-old teenager after he posted lyrics from the Eminem song, “I’m Back,” on his Instagram. The sophomore high school student’s post read, “I take seven kids from Columbine, stand ’em all in a line, add an AK-47, a revolver, a nine, a MAC-11 and it oughtta solve the problem…

Eminem premiered this new trailer for Southpaw, starring Jake Gyllenhaal. The only description I knew about it previously involved Gyllenhaal's ridiculously ripped torso.
Actress Juliette Lewis has formed a new supergroup called Giraffe Tongue Orchestra with some other highly regarded metal musicians. It's entirely possible the band's name is a reference to the secret giraffe tongue sacrifice that lay people like us aren't yet privy to (Lewis is a deep Scientologist). No recordings…
Hailie Jade Scott Mathers, the daughter of Eminem and Kim Scott, is a full-fledged adult now and we are all old/nearing death.
Here is Sam Smith, and the rest of the winners at the 57th Annual Grammy Awards:

Eminem has a long history of performing for shock value. He also has a lyrical history of using female bodies for his sadistic pleasure and entertainment. We've become so accustomed to it that it's generally dismissed and given the "Whatever" reaction. Lately, he's been at it again, and frankly it's boring.
While you've been working or otherwise occupied with the humdrum of your day-to-day, Rihanna's been in Washington, D.C., probably having a better time than most of us will experience in our entire lives.
As a woman of the hip-hop generation, I’ve fought long and hard for my place in that world. From demanding respect behind the scenes to calling fouls in the mainstream — I mean, a male colleague recently admitted to me that he initially thought I was a lesbian because I apparently know too much about rap music for any…
I think we just broke the Internet. For real this time.
I won't lie, I've been bored with Eminem since the "The Eminem Show" album but this guy does have an uncanny ability to make hip-hop power ballads — remember "Love The Way You Lie" with the Hobbit and Megan Fox? How disturbing was that video and its popularity? Still, even I was surprised by how much I actually like…
