Before you get too excited, this isn’t a new album or anything. Eminem has been doing a lot to keep his community active during the quarantine, specifically encouraging Detroit DJs to keep up their hard work by establishing a contest to be featured on his Shade 45 radio station. Now, Em is deciding to keep the hip-hop heads happy this weekend with some classic tunes, launching his “Music To Be Quarantined By” playlist.

Titled after his recent album Music To Be Murdered By, the three-hour-long special will include a bunch of songs that Eminem has been listening to while quarantined in his home. It will air for the first time at noon EST on Saturday, May 2. 

On the docket will be lots of music from rap’s past generations, including tracks from Tupac Shakur, The Notorious B.I.G, Beastie Boys, MC Lyte, Mobb Deep, Nas, Wu-Tang Clan, Run DMC, and more.

Encores of the show will air all weekend, as well as the following week if you’re unable to catch it when it premieres.

Eminem has been giving back during the pandemic, sending spaghetti meals to his local healthcare facility and teaming up with StockX to give away a rare pair of his Air Jordan 4 x Carhartt collaboration.

Be sure to tune in tomorrow!

Considering the fact that some deceased people are getting stimulus checks before the rest of us, Eminem is doing God’s work by announcing that he is also giving away relief funds for COVID-19. However, you’ve got to be tapped into the city of Detroit, keeping your finger on the musical pulse of Motor City to apply.

Sending out a message to Detroit’s DJ community, Eminem announced that he is offering a once-in-a-lifetime chance to be featured on his Shade 45 Radio station.

The top fifteen entries will be featured on his radio station and, in case that wasn’t enough incentive to show off your skills, the first 500 entries will all be getting a cash prize.

“Hometown DJ’s! @shade45 and me linked up for #LoveYourDJ – first 500 get $313,” wrote Eminem on Instagram.

Only Michigan residents will be able to enter the challenge. Of course, the dollar amount being sent to applicants is based on Detroit’s area code.

This is not all Eminem has done to help out during the coronavirus health crisis. This week, he also delivered spaghetti meals to a local healthcare facility, packaging them in Shady Records bowls and ensuring that all frontline caregivers had a meal that night.

Props to Eminem for this!

One of the most accomplished rappers of all time, Eminem also apparently has a heart of gold. Who would have thought that we would describe one of the most ferocious battlers using those words but, in the midst of the coronavirus quarantine, he came through with a major announcement that will entertain so many as we fight back boredom.

Taking to his rarely-used social media channels, Eminem announced that Shade 45, the hip-hop centric radio station that the rapper operates, will be available for free for a limited time during quarantine.

“Make right now sound a little better,” wrote Em, using the unfortunate circumstances we’re all navigating to drive attention to his SiriusXM channel. “The @shade45 crew can help keep you sane. Right now, you get Shade 45 for free, along with full @siriusxm access!”

Streaming on SiriusXM will be free until May 15, ensuring that listeners have enough audio content to keep them away from the woes of restlessness. With free Shade 45, you can stay up to date on some of the best new sounds coming from the world of hip-hop, while also remaining in touch with one of the most skilled rappers of all time.

Fenty officially took over New York Fashion Week on Friday (February 7). Rihanna and her bright orange Fenty drip descended on Bergdorf Goodman for her event where she shared a preview of her upcoming collection during a digital window unveiling. Earlier in the day, RiRi shared a snippet on Instagram with a message for fans in the area. “When y’all was asleep last night, I was out interacting with my @fenty digital windows at Bergdorf Goodman ?!” she wrote in the caption. “If you happen to be in NYC today do a lil drive by before it ends tonight!”

The pop star-turned-fashion-and-beauty-mogul was all smiles during her event that included a few friends who stopped by to support her. Shade 45 radio host Daniel Jean was able to get a snippet of Rihanna as they sipped on wine and enjoyed the DJ spinning Roddy Ricch‘s hit track “The Box.” In the video, Jean jokingly says, “I think it’s time to tell the world that you’re having my baby.”

Rihanna’s face immediately twists up as she side-eyes him with a smirk. She’s rumored to be newly single so hey, do what you have to do. Meanwhile, fans are still waiting on the singer to drop her next project, and she’s tired of people harassing her about it. Fenty seems to be the priority at the moment, but we’re crossing our fingers that 2020 will be the year that the rumored R9 record hits the streets.
