Eminem Talks Possibility of 50 Cent Joint Album
On Wednesday (Dec. 25), Eminem appeared on DJ Whoo Kid’s Whoo’s House Podcast to celebrate 20 years of Em’s Shade 45 Sirius hip-hop station. During the chat, which can be heard below, Whoo Kid asks Slim Shady about the possibility of fans getting an Em and 50 collab album.
“That would be great,” Em responds around the 21:30 timestamp of the interview below. “I think that we gotta stop bullsh*tting and just do it…I would never say it’s not possible.”
Listen to Eminem Talk About Possibly Doing a Joint Album With 50 Cent
It’s been nine years since 50 Cent released his last project, the mixtape The Kanan Tape, and 10 years since he released his most recent album, Animal Ambition, in 2014. In the last decade, 50 has mostly been focusing on building his film and TV empire, which has included the fan-favorite series Power and BMF. He has, however, been outside on the massive The Final Lap Tour in 2023.
Back in September, 50 Cent revealed that he previously proposed a massive world tour to Em that would have featured them and Dr. Dre, which the Detroit rapper turned down for sentimental reasons.
“He said, ‘I just don’t want to go and come back and Hailie’s grown,'” 50 explained in an interview on CBS’ Saturday Morning. “I did not know what he meant when he said that to me. I thought he was crazy because I was like, he just don’t want to go. ’Cause I was trying to convince him to go on the tour at that point,” 50 Cent added. “And then, I was at Hailie’s wedding. She got married and I’m like, this is what he’s talking about. The time went so fast that we watched her get married.”
