Eminem’s lyrics from “Without Me” and “The Real Slim Shady” were both referenced during a viral weather report from Houston, Texas. In the clip, meteorologist Adam Krueger follows through on a TikTok challenge to use the legendary rapper’s lyrics while reporting the weather.
“One last dry day, but guess who’s back, back again? Rain is back, tell a friend,” Krueger said referencing “Without Me.” After doing “The Real Slim Shady,” Krueger said, “You’re probably thinking, ‘Oh wait, no wait – you’re kidding. He didn’t just say what I think he did, did he?’” Eminem isn’t the only artist that Krueger has done this for. On his social media pages, he takes requests for all sorts of challenges from his followers. He’s also done Megan Thee Stallion, George Strait, DMX, The Weeknd, and more.
Adam Krueger’s Weather Report
The weather report comes just months after Eminem was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. In his acceptance speech, he explained that he felt he wasn’t supposed to have reached this level of success for multiple reasons. “So I’m probably not supposed to actually be here tonight because of a couple of reasons. One of them that I’m a rapper, and this is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. And there’s only a few of us right now that have been inducted in already, but there’s only a few of us,” Eminem said. He continued: “Secondly, I almost died from an overdose in 2007, which kind of sucked. Hailie, plug your ears: because drugs were fucking delicious, and I thought we had a good thing going man, but I had to go and fuck it all up and take too many. God damn. OK Hailie.”
Additionally, Eminem is working with 50 Cent on a TV adaptation of his iconic film, 8 Mile. The G-Unit rapper spoke about the project during an interview on the BigBoyTV YouTube channel. “It’s gonna be big. I’m working. I ain’t got no duds. I’m batting 100,” 50 said on the show. “I think it should be there for his legacy because it’s important to me that they understand it.”
