Eminem’s fans in London were in for a huge surprise when the rap legend made a rare appearance at a pop-up event promoting his new album, The Death of Slim Shady. Looking happy and relaxed, he posed for photos and signed autographs, much to the delight of everyone present.
The two-day event, which kicked off on July 17, was filled with cool features and merchandise. From custom build-outs like an open casket filled with roses to an exclusive collection of tees, hoodies, and hats, fans had plenty to enjoy. The event was a collaboration with Complex, adding to the unique experience.
While London got to see Eminem in person, fans in Los Angeles were not as lucky. The same pop-up event was held there earlier, but the rapper didn’t make an appearance. Still, attendees got to check out the exclusive merch and unique setups.
The excitement didn’t stop there. Eminem’s new album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce), is projected to open at number one on the Billboard 200. With sales expected to hit between 270,000 to 290,000 units in its first week, it’s on track to dethrone Taylor Swift’s album after a 12-week reign. This would mark Eminem’s 11th number-one album, putting him in league with music giants like Kanye West and Bruce Springsteen.
The album isn’t just making waves on the charts; it’s also stirring controversy. Conservative commentator Candace Owens took to YouTube to fire shots at Eminem after he dissed her on the track ‘Lucifer,’ produced by Dr. Dre. Calling him a ‘closeted homosexual,’ Owens didn’t hold back, referencing his 2002 hit in her rant. Eminem also took aim at other celebrities like Diddy, Ja Rule, and Lizzo, ensuring the album remains a hot topic.
Eminem’s rare appearance in London and his controversial new album are keeping fans and critics buzzing.
