Eminem has returned with “Houdini,” the lead single from his forthcoming new album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce).
“Houdini” is the first single to arrive since Eminem announced The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce) last month. In the corresponding music video, a portal from 2002 opens, allowing his former-self from his to step into the present. From there, he recreates his iconic “Without Me” video, as present-day Eminem sets out to find 2002 Eminem, with the two encountering everyone from Dr. Dre to Snoop Dogg, Shane Gillis, Paul Rosenberg, and more along the way.
Ultimately, the Eminems have a roof-top showdown and merge together, becoming a “monster.” Then, he jestingly goes on the offense against everyone from Dr. Dre to Rosenberg, his own kids, and more. After all of that, Pete Davidson takes over as the driver of his car (with the assurance that he “just got...

Elsewhere on the track, the rapper shouts out the “Hot Girl Summer” star: “If I was to ask for Megan Thee Stallion if she would collab...

However, even seasoned commentator David Coulthard could not resist a playful jab, referring to Aguilera as a fake fan of Formula 1.

Hi, my name is – or rather *was* – Slim Shady. Eminem has killed off his Slim Shady persona, penning an obituary that mourns the loss of his tortured alter ego.
In an obituary published in the Detroit Free Press, Eminem wrote of the late Slim Shady, “A product of Detroit who began his career there as a rogue splinter in the flourishing underground rap scene of the mid to late 1990s, Shady first became a household name in 1999 with the debut of his playfully deranged single ‘My Name Is,’ which — along with its uniquely eye catching video — exposed the young artist and his lyrics to a wider audience. That audience was soon exposed to the extreme darkness of the muse/rapper as he led millions of music fans down a road that glorified a demonstrably nihilistic worldview.” It’s worth noting that this is part of the promotional strategy for his upcoming album,...

Eminem was known for oddball, controversial stunts during his early career, but he’s taken things to another level with an obituary for his character Slim Shady. The obituary gives fans a lot of insight into how the “Without Me” rapper views his Slim Shady persona. It also might have a clue as to how Slim Shady will evolve in the future.
Eminem’s obituary for Slim Shady is a refresher for some
One of Eminem’s most provocative stunts in some time is naming his upcoming album The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce). Killing off a famous character is sure to turn heads, whether it was Sir Arthur Conan Doyle killing off Sherlock Holmes or the famous DC Comics arc “The Death of Superman.”

The Rolling Stones member came out as gay in 1992 and had proof to support his claim that the rapper was accused wrongly. Keep scrolling for more.
The Slim Shady rapper’s original name is Marshall Bruce Mathers III. Marshall and John’s friendship began in 2001 when they performed at the 2001 Grammys. Back then, the rapper was condemned for his alleged homophobic lyrics, with The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) striking against him outside The Staples Centre. The Grammys were taking place there.

Eminem is taking more legal action against Robyn Dixon and Gizelle Bryant.
Earlier this year, the two Real Housewives of Potomac stars filed to trademark their podcast’s name, Reasonably Shady, which the 51-year-old rapper, whose legal name is Marshall Mathers III, quickly opposed, claiming his brand will be damaged if the podcast acquires the trademark because it could cause “confusion” with Eminem’s own brand, due to his nicknames.
Eminem has been using the “Shady” and “Slim Shady” nicknames since 1996, and owns the trademark for both to use on merch and his records.
He has now filed for a protective order against Robyn and Gizelle.

Eminem’s handlers are arguing that he’s the real Slim Shady, and all others should not be allowed to trademark the “Shady” phrase, which is closely identified with the rapper thanks to his song The Real Slim Shady.
Thus, they have requested a protective order against Real Housewives of Potomac reality stars Gizelle Bryant and Robyn Dixon, the latest volley in their ongoing dispute over the reality stars attempt at trademarking their Reasonably Shady podcast.
Eminem is asking the court not to appear for a deposition requested by the Bravo stars in the matter. He claims he has “limited knowledge of the subjects at issue.”
His attorneys offered others, including the rapper’s manager Paul Rosenberg, who would be willing to appear.
The other side insists that he show up.
The trademark battle began after the Real Housewives stars filed to trademark their podcast’s name in order to sell merchandise.

Eminem Does Not Want to Sit for a Deposition In His Trademark Fight With Two ‘Real Housewives’ Stars
Eminem’s trademark dispute with Real Housewives of Potomac stars Gizelle Bryant and Robyn Dixon over their “Reasonably Shady” podcast (and other ventures) has descended into a back-and-forth over whether the rapper should have to sit for a deposition.
Earlier this month, Bryant and Dixon filed a motion trying to compel Eminem (real name Marshall Mathers) to sit for a deposition, which the rapper promptly rebuffed in a Dec. 15 filing (first reported by AllHipHop). Mathers’ lawyer also sought to secure a protective order “precluding the deposition” of the rapper.

Ed Sheeran added Eminem to the equation for the Detroit stop on his ongoing “Mathematics Tour,” with the pair performing “Lose Yourself” and “Stan” in front of the rapper’s hometown crowd.
“I wondered if I could play you a cover of an Eminem song tonight,” Sheeran began. “I think you know it. We rehearsed it today; we’ll see how it goes.” After strumming the “Lose Yourself” intro and admirably rattling off the first few lines, Slim Shady took the stage to finish off the opening verse. Though the rapper sounded just as ferocious as he did on the original 8 Mile cut, the singer-guitarist brought his own twist with some nice harmonies during the chorus.
Cutting the song short, Sheeran raised the hype by telling the audience, “Can I just say, he was gonna come out and do one song, but I said you can’t come out...
