Eminem Joins 50 Cent Onstage: Detroit’s Surprise of the Year
The Detroit crowd at the Pine Knob Music Theatre was treated to an unexpected appearance by rap giant Eminem during 50 Cent’s Final Lap Tour stop on September 17. This reunion reinforced their enduring bond, which has been one of hip-hop’s most notable friendships.
A Brief Dive into Their Friendship
50 Cent and Eminem’s history dates back to the early 2000s. Eminem, often hailed as one of the greatest rappers of all time, was instrumental in introducing 50 Cent to the mainstream music scene by signing him to Shady Records. Their collaborative projects and mutual support have created some of the most iconic tracks in hip-hop history.
The Night in Detroit
On this particular Sunday night, as 50 Cent, the mastermind behind G-Unit, dominated the stage, it seemed fitting for Detroit’s Marshall Mathers to join the performance. Halfway into the concert, the audience erupted in jubilation when Eminem made his surprise entrance. Together, the duo performed their standout verse from 50 Cent’s Get Rich or Die Tryin’ album, “Patiently Waiting.” They then moved to delight fans with their 2009 chart-topper, “Crack a Bottle.”
Before exiting, Eminem took a moment to express his admiration for 50 Cent, addressing the ecstatic Detroit crowd. Watch the clips below:
