Eminem Brings Royce Da 5’9, Skylar Grey, Bruno Mars On Stage At Lollapalooza

    On Saturday (August 6), Eminem took the stage at the Lollapalooza festival, which has been host to acts such as Snoop Dogg, Kanye West, and the Roots. With his vast catalogue of fan favorites, Shady made sure it was a night for fans to remember.

    Performing cuts from his latest solo album, Recovery, such as “Won’t Back Down” and “Love the Way You Lie,” the Detroit emcee surprisingly didn’t shy away from Relapse, an album he heavily criticized. Included in the set was “3 A.M.,” a murderous tale that was part of the 2009 LP.

    Shady made it a well-rounded set, looking to The Eminem Show (“Square Dance,” “Cleanin’ Out My Closet”) and Marshall Mathers LP (“Kill You,” “The Way I Am,” “Stan”) to remind fans of the rapper that took over the music world in the late 90s and early 2000s. Em also brought with him Bad Meets Evil partner-in-rhyme Royce Da 5’9″ for a rendition of “Fast Lane” and “Lighters,” for which Bruno Mars came on stage. Also on hand was Skylar Grey for “I Need a Doctor.” Mr. Porter, also known as D12’s Kon Artis, played the role of hype man.

    To close the show, Shady dove into a his back of tricks and performed a medley of the “zany first single” style songs, which consisted of 1999’s “My Name Is,” 2000’s “Real Slim Shady,” and 2002’s “Without Me,” before putting a punctuation mark on the set with the considerably more serious cuts “Not Afraid” and “Lose Yourself.”

      1. Too me Relapse was wack….except for 3 or 4 songs (beautiful was dope), …Rebirth though really?, Im not even gonna get mad im just gonna grin and continue my life lol.

    1. Best part the first video. We can hear that he doesn’t arrive to do the same flow that he did before. His voice is not the same. He will never be the same. But great video, i appreciate, thx.
      An Eminem’s fan.

      1. lol internet gangster wants to meet at chillis like if were in elementary school lol man that shit was funny

    2. i cant figure out which spice bitch i wanna impregnate..LOL! why didn’t he say bitch the first time?.. he’s getting more offensive

      1. Lip synching = moving your lips to a background track without actually rapping/singing.

        It’s not the same as rapping over the background track, you dumb fuck. Go to a concert with 100,000 people and see if you can hear what the fuck he’s saying without the background track.

      2. I am a huge eminem fan, i was at the show and have been at lolla for the past 5 or 6 years, and i have never seen anyone else lip sync in front of 100,000 fans. whether its a “reference track” or not its wack as hell when people pay hundreds of dollars to see you. id honestly rather have him fuck up some of the lyrics than rap over his own track, if i woulda known that was the case, i coulda stayed home blasted eminem in my basement n rapped over it myself

    3. I just paid $23,98 for an iPad2-64GB and my girlfriend loves her Panasonic Lumix GF 1 Camera that we got for $37,59 there arriving tomorrow by UPS. I will never pay such expensive retail prices in stores again. Especially when I also sold a 40 inch LED TV to my boss for $677 which only cost me $72,13 to buy.
