Eminem Collabs With White Castle For “White Rapper” Merch

by

If you tuned into the music video for “Tobey”, you might have caught that a White Castle restaurant was randomly in it for some reason. Well, it turns out that was a bit of an easter egg. According to Billboard, Eminem put out a spare, two-item merch drop on his website, shop.eminem.com, in partnership with White Castle. The two pieces include a white t-shirt and a white and black trucker hat. For the latter, it includes the logo of the longstanding burger slider chain, but instead the name is replaced with “White Rapper”. Then, on the shirt it has the same graphic in addition to “ESTABLISHED IN 1972”. Underneath that, it reads, “Buy ’em by the “Sack”.

The “1972” is Eminem’s birth year and it replaces the time in which White Castle was founded (1921). Both are in limited production and each item will ship out at different times. For the hat, it will ship out on August 16, and the shirt will go out two weeks later on August 30. The cap can be had for $30 and the tee at $35 a pop. Sizing starts at small and then goes up to double XL.

Eminem Is Embracing The “White Rapper” Label

Speaking of dropping things, Eminem will be leaving off his next studio album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce), this Friday, July 12. Led by “Houdini” and “Tobey”, which features Big Sean and BabyTron, the rest of the tracklist is still up in the air. It apparently made its way onto Apple Music, even revealing the additional guests. However, the names of the songs and artists have been removed. However, we can say we have the artwork, and it is pretty clever while also being on the nose. It sees his Slim Shady looking terrified as he is getting zipped up in a body bag. He might be killing off the alter ego, but Em is adopting the “white rapper” title in its place with this merch team-up.

What are your thoughts on this merchandise collaboration between Eminem and White Castle? Do you any of the pieces in this drop intrigue you? How are you feeling about his upcoming album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce), so far? Who do you expect to land on the record? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Eminem.

Drake’s new album For All The Dogs has been massively successful. The album dumped its entire tracklist into the top 50 of the Hot 100 and many of the songs still remain. The bunch are highlighted by “First Person Shooter” with J. Cole which became a number one hit and “IDGAF” with Yeat which still finds itself in the top 10 this week. The album was also a massive hit on the Billboard 200 where it’s been in the top 2 for three weeks. Dozens of other Billboard charts also had their top 10s rocked by the album’s release.

Now Drake and OVO are taking a victory lap. There’s already been plenty of merch from the album and the rapper’s “It’s All A Blur” tour, but they dropped one more piece. The new item is a For All The Dogs varsity jacket covered in various patches and sporting the album artwork on the back. The jacket costs just under $1000 and is expected to ship in January. Fans hoping to get their hands on one may have to wait around hoping for a restock. Within the first few hours of the release of the varsity jacket, it sold out in every single size. Check out the jacket itself below.

Over the weekend, Drake broke his silence on the Israel-Palestine conflict. Since the conflict broke out earlier this month some had publicly called him out for his silence. He took a very safe approach to finally commenting, signing a letter calling for a ceasefire.

Last week Drake celebrated his 37th birthday with a bunch of new RIAA certifications. A number of his albums and singles continued to rack up Platinum status. He got to share a personal text about the new certifications to his Instagram story to celebrate alongside fans. What do you think of Drake and OVO’s new For All The Dogs varsity jacket?
