The Detroit rapper’s resurgence reached its peak with yesterday’s Grammy announcement for the 2011 nominations. Eminem leads the pack with a total of ten nods, all stemming from his mega-successful comeback album Recovery, which is on pace to be the best-selling album of the year.
To date, Emimen has won 11 Grammys, but never for Album of the Year or Record of the Year. He’ll get another shot at both of those titles this time around thanks to Recovery and his hit single featuring Rihanna ”Love The Way You Lie.” (Read More…)

It’s ironic that the man who once rapped “They tried to shut me down on MTV/But it feels so empty without me” opened the MTV Video Awards Ceremony where he was nominated for eight trophies.
I guess Eminem was right.
“We thought that there’s no better way to kick off the show than a performance from Eminem,” MTV general manager Stephen Friedman told Pollstar.
Last night’s ceremony was held at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles. In addition to the stars eye-catching performances (and outfits like Lady Gaga’s meat dress!), the stage was just as impressive with a huge, rotating billboard, two video screens, a rounded stage and curving catwalk.

According to Eminem, “A rap battle in Detroit is no laughing matter, and it seems that Fowl took it the most seriously tonight.”
The superstar rapper is referring to Saffal “Fowl” Tall, the 18-year old Detroit native who was the winner of the national freestyle rap battle competition hosted by Eminem in… you guessed it… Detroit! “Fowl” beat out competing rappers from New York, Philly, Atlanta, and San Francisco to name a few. He won the Red Bull EmSee title.

Tom Jones is currently in the running to become the oldest male to have a UK number 1 album at 70 years old.
Unfortunately for him, his album, Praise and Blame, only made number 2, losing to Eminem’s Recovery. Bob Dylan currently holds the record with Together Through Life which came out last year when he was 67.
Jones is looking to get a 3rd number 1 album. His last was Reload in 1999.
Recovery has currently been at the top for 5 weeks straight. Eminem has kept Jones from gaining the title, and by the looks of it, Recovery will stay at the top for a long, long time.

Eminem and Jay-Z planned on surprising a crowd during a taping of the “Late Show With David Letterman,” but their plans were squashed by the Mayor’s Office of Film, Theatre and Broadcasting, when they were told that the performance would have to remain a secret until the day of the show.
By then, news of the planned performance had already leaked, and the MOFTB didn’t want another riot like what happened at last week’s free Drake concert with 10,000 disorderly fans.

Eminem took home two of the three Grammy Awards he was nominated for at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards last Sunday night.
He along with pals Dr. Dre and 50 Cent won for ‘Best Rap Performance b a Duo or Group’ for “Crack a Bottle.” His album, “Relapse,” also won for ‘Best Rap Album.’
The ‘Best Rap Solo Performance’ went to Jay-Z.
Eminem and Lil Wayne also rapped during Drake’s performance of “Forever,” which irked some viewers because of the numerous bleeps and censors during the song. A CBS spokesman told the Associated Press that “it was a rousing musical performance, but words were edited from the live telecast that didn’t meet our broadcast standards. We have great respect for artists’ creative freedom, but there are certain things you can’t say, or sing, on television.”
