Eminem has reignited excitement among fans, hinting that a collaborative album with his longtime partner-in-crime, 50 Cent, is still a possibility. During a Christmas Day interview on his Shade 45 radio station, Em—alongside his manager Paul Rosenberg—expressed enthusiasm for the idea.
A Long-Awaited Project
When asked if he would consider making the album with 50 Cent, Eminem responded, “That would be great. We just gotta stop bullshitting and do it. I would never say it’s not possible.”
Rosenberg echoed the sentiment, adding, “I would love to hear it, so whenever you guys are ready, we’re putting it out.”
The idea of a joint project isn’t new. Back in January, Eminem spoke about the prospects of teaming up with 50 Cent during an appearance on DJ Whoo Kid’s show, also on Shade 45. At the time, Em said, “I’m trying to get him to make a new album so bad. We need another 50 album, like, really bad. 50’s been on a roll since the tour.”
Mutual Admiration
Eminem expressed his eagerness to collaborate, saying, “I told him whatever the fck he needs from me, I’m here. That sht would be crazy, though—an album with me and him.”
