In a recent interview, 50 Cent dropped some interesting gems about what reportedly went down behind the scenes of the 2022 Super Bowl Halftime Show. And apparently, it was all surrounding the decisions Jay Z’s Roc Nation was making in an alleged attempt to do 50 dirty.

50 Cent’s near-exclusion from the 2022 Super Bowl Halftime Show– which he ultimately appeared in alongside Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige, and Kendrick Lamar– almost really happened. According to 50, Jay-Z’s Roc Nation tried to stiff-arm him out of the lineup, but it was his ally, Eminem, who ultimately stepped up for him in a major way.

The Drama Unfolds:

In his interview with The Hollywood Reporter, 50 Cent revealed that Roc Nation, which is helmed by Jay-Z, attempted to give him the cold shoulder for the Halftime Show performances. The star-studded lineup seemingly did not include 50 Cent as a part of the initial plan. However, things took a surprising turn when Eminem, a long-time collaborator and friend of 50, refused to perform without him:

50 Cent recounted, “Eminem wouldn’t do it (The 2022 Super Bowl Halftime Show) without me.”

Realizing the potential loss of having a rap legend like Eminem on stage, Roc Nation had no choice but to bring 50 Cent on board:

“Roc Nation. Yeah, they didn’t want me there. Eminem wouldn’t do it without me. That’s how I ended up on the show because he was not coming if I didn’t do it. When that happens, you go, “Damn, so you just lost Eminem because you didn’t bring 50? Damn. All right. Bring 50 then.” But if it was up to them, they would not have me there. I’m the surprise. I’m not on the bill at all. But they couldn’t get Em to do it without me.”

Even though 50 didn’t say Jay Z’s name directly, everybody knows Jay’s name is synonymous with the company he owns–Roc Nation and it’s Super Bowl Halftime Show lineups ever since the brand took over production of the SB shows in 2019, just sayin.’ But there’s more…

The Rivalry Reignites:

For years there have been whispers about a possible tension between Jay Z and 50 Cent. And after hearing his side of the story about his alleged Super Bowl appearance that almost didn’t happen, that likely explains why he’s been throwing a few verbal jabs Jay Z’s way lately, much like he did in one of his more recent Instagram posts seen below…

50 Questions Beyoncé’s Controversial Wins:

In addition to the sage with Jay-Z, 50 Cent didn’t shy away from weighing in on the Grammy Awards…and Jay’s wife, Beyoncé. Taking a swipe at the musical accolades, he boldly stated that the trophies have “ZERO VALUE.” But that wasn’t all—he also raised suspicions about Bey’s multiple wins, suggesting an inside job. “I don’t know who’s voting in that s***,” he mused, adding, “It’s crazy. Whoever they are, they’re off at Beyoncé’s house because she has 30 of them.”

Neither Jay Z, nor Beyoncé have spoken out about 50’s allegations, but we’ll keep you all posted if they do.

While Michael Jackson was alive, he and Eminem had intense issues. However, as fate would have it, MJ seems to have the last laugh — even beyond the grave.

During Eminem’s early years, you know he didn’t mind taking low-blows at other artists. One of those was Michael Jackson. Jackson couldn’t understand why the rapper targeted him, especially since Michael had never beefed with any of his fellow artists.

Reportedly, Jackson questioned Eminem’s motives several times without taking action against him. However, the rapper persisted. So, that’s when Michael seemingly had enough.

Now, Eminem has toned down…

Yet, it unfortunately took a lot of life lessons for that to happen. Nevertheless, at this point, the rapper claims to have a much better understanding of what Michael Jackson went through, given his own turmoils of recent-past years.

But surely, you want to know how Jackson has the last laugh, right?

If you remember, in 2004, the rapper released a song called “Just Lose It.” In the song, he heavily mocked Jackson from child molestation charges to his hair catching on fire during his 1984 Pepsi commercial shoot.

After the track receiving incredible airplay and him undergoing consistent ridicule, Michael took action. First, he publicly demanded all cable music video stations across the U.S. stop playing Eminem’s video. And they did just that, according to The Guardian.

“I am very angry at Eminem’s depiction of me in his video,” Jackson mentioned at the time. “I feel that it is outrageous and disrespectful. It is one thing to spoof, but it is another to be demeaning and insensitive.”

“I’ve admired Eminem as an artist, and was shocked by this. The video was inappropriate and disrespectful to me, my children, my family and the community at large.”

But This Was The Kick To Eminem’s ‘Crotch’…

Jackson Buys Eminem’s Rights…

One thing Michael understood: he could become your boss without your permission, if he allowed money to do the talking. The Guardian reports that Jackson acquired ATV, a company which housed The Beatles’ entire catalog, for $47.5 million.

But then, Michael turned around and sold 25 percent of ATV to Sony.

“Yesterday’s deal means Sony/ATV own the rights to over 125,000 songs, of which Eminem is one of the most high-profile and profitable,” the source reported in 2007 after the transaction occurred.

The partnership also purchased Famous Music’s catalog as well for $370 million. Martin N. Bandier, Sony/ATV CEO at the time, had this to say:

“The Famous Music catalogue is a world-class asset filled with evergreen songs that people know and love. The depth and breadth of the catalogue is what truly makes it great.”

Em’ Turned To Drugs…

Rolling Stone reported that Eminem later participated in an interview with Complex, where he decided to open up about several topics — one of which was drug addiction.

The source says Eminem became heavily addicted to Vicodin, and blamed the drug for his weight gain over the years, during his hiatus. At that point, he fully understood Michael’s situation and claimed that being any celebrity with Jackson’s level of fame could prove fatal.

“I definitely can relate, and it’s a shame if he didn’t have anybody there to just say, ‘Michael, you’re an addict, you need help,'” Eminem told the source.

Once the rapper got clean, he started changing his life — even his own appearance. He was done with the blonde hair.

“Once I got sober I was like, ‘What the f**k am I doing? I’m like 35 years old, am I going to keep dying my hair f**king blond?’ Also it was just about letting go.”

According to the source, his blonde hair reportedly reminded him of his addiction.

“I hated myself when I was in my addiction,” Eminem mentioned. “I hated myself worse than anyone could ever hate me.”

It’s crazy how the tables can turn, right? Life can throw you a curve ball from where you least-likely expect it. Probably in a million years, the rapper would’ve never thought Michael Jackson would own his back-catalog.

Here’s What Happened>>>

The post Michael Jackson Got Major Payback After Eminem Dissed Him & It Lasted Well After His Death appeared first on I Love Old School Music.

MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA — On Tuesday, October 10, Eminem issued a lyrical blow to Orange Donald that was nothing short of “presidential.”

You're going to want to tune into @BET tonight. #HipHopAwards 8pm ET pic.twitter.com/rapIgJzCtL

— Marshall Mathers (@Eminem) October 10, 2017

According to BBC, the rapper’s cypher was four and a half minutes in length and was power-packed through and through.

The source states that Eminem’s a’capella rendition INSTANTLY went viral. And, after you listen for yourself, you’ll see why.

WARNING: The following video contains strong language. Viewer discretion is advised.

Eminem even states that any of his fans who are Donald Trump supporters can basically go f**k themselves.

‘RACISM IS THE ONLY THING HE’S FANTASTIC FOUR (FOR)’

https://twitter.com/KingJames/status/917961576350699520

Is there anyone who could’ve delivered these words with more intensity than Eminem? Probably not.

Of course you know Trump isn’t going to remain silent on this issue for long.

Donald Trump was probably up all night trying to think of a comeback like “What rhymes with loser?” #eminem #EminemCypher pic.twitter.com/Miw50UhCJQ

Yet, anything he tweets will be a deflection from his impeachment and treasonous crimes.

As Eminem mentioned during the cypher, “He keeps screaming, ‘drain the swamp’, ’cause he’s in quicksand.”

And keep this in mind…

Marshall “Eminem” Mathers has a LOT of white fans — some of which have shown themselves to be racist individuals holding to the fact he’s a white rapper lyrically capable of contending with and often beating many fellow Black rappers.

Well, pretty sure they’re all sitting on “empty” right now after watching Eminem say “f**k you” like that.

Donald Trump didn’t condemn Charlottesville neo-nazis and white racists, but Mathers certainly just bombed the heck out of them, lyrically.

AND ABOUT THIS WHOLE ‘DISRESPECTING THE MILITARY’ THING

Trump is the one who has disrespected the military from the jump.

As Eminem points out, Donald mentioned during his presidential campaign that P.O.Ws are weak because they got caught.

According to BBC, when Trump made that comment, he was targeting Senator John McCain who is a P.O.W., himself.

Eminem sarcastically states, “That ain’t disrespecting the military.”

All in all, Mr. Mathers delivered a crushing blow to Trump’s ego, and the true American public is behind every word.

You think Trump and his supporters don’t know it?

HERE ARE THE FULL LYRICS:

“It’s the calm before the storm right here
Wait, how was I gonna start this off?
I forgot… oh, yeah
That’s an awfully hot coffee pot
Should I drop it on Donald Trump? Probably not
But that’s all I got ’til I come up with a solid plot
Got a plan and now I gotta hatch it
Like a damn Apache with a tomahawk
Imma walk inside a mosque on Ramadan
And say a prayer that every time Melania talks
She gets a mou… Ahh, Imma stop
But we better give Obama props
‘Cause what we got in office now’s a kamikaze
That’ll probably cause a nuclear holocaust
And while the drama pops
And he waits for s**t to quiet down, he’ll just gas his plane up and fly around ’til the bombing stops
Intensities heightened, tensions are risin’
Trump, when it comes to giving a s**t, you’re stingy as I am
Except when it comes to having the b***s to go against me, you hide ’em
‘Cause you don’t got the f**king n**s like an empty asylum
Racism’s the only thing he’s fantastic for
‘Cause that’s how he gets his f**king rocks off and he’s orange
Yeah, sick tan
That’s why he wants us to disband
‘Cause he cannot withstand
The fact we’re not afraid of Trump
F**k walkin’ on egg shells, I came to stomp
That’s why he keeps screamin’ ‘Drain the swamp’
‘Cause he’s in quicksand
It’s like we take a step forwards, then backwards
But this is his form of distraction
Plus, he gets an enormous reaction
When he attacks the NFL so we focus on that
Instead of talking Puerto Rico or gun reform for Nevada
All these horrible tragedies and he’s bored and would rather
Cause a Twitter storm with the Packers
Then says he wants to lower our taxes
Then who’s gonna pay for his extravagant trips
Back and forth with his fam to his golf resorts and his mansions?
Same s**t that he tormented Hillary for and he slandered
Then does it more
From his endorsement of Bannon
Support for the Klansmen
Tiki torches in hand for the soldier that’s black
And comes home from Iraq
And is still told to go back to Africa
Fork and a dagger in this racist 94-year-old grandpa
Who keeps ignoring our past historical, deplorable factors
Now if you’re a black athlete, you’re a spoiled little brat for
Tryina use your platform or your stature
To try to give those a voice who don’t have one
He says, ‘You’re spittin’ in the face of vets who fought for us, you bastards!’
Unless you’re a POW who’s tortured and battered
‘Cause to him you’re zeros
‘Cause he don’t like his war heroes captured
That’s not disrespecting the military
F**k that! This is for Colin, ball up a fist!
And keep that s**t balled like Donald the b**ch!
‘He’s gonna get rid of all immigrants!’
‘He’s gonna build that thang up taller than this!’
Well, if he does build it, I hope it’s rock solid with bricks
‘Cause like him in politics, I’m using all of his tricks
‘Cause I’m throwin’ that piece of s**t against the wall ’til it sticks
And any fan of mine who’s a supporter of his
I’m drawing in the sand a line: you’re either for or against
And if you can’t decide who you like more and you’re split
On who you should stand beside, I’ll do it for you with this:
F**k you!
The rest of America stand up
We love our military, and we love our country
But we f**king hate Trump”
