DOPERAD

Maybe it’s just me.. but I was thrown off for about 5 minutes today when I read that Justin Bieber was nominated for a BET Award this year. I literally was frozen in my chair. The dude is, like, the whitest of the white you can get, which is a little odd considering the BET Awards’ charter is something along the lines of recognizing the achievements of Black and minority artists in entertainment.

But I admittedly didn’t give Justin Bieber a chance… a couple of Youtube searches later this kid ain’t bad! So for that hasty prejudgment, JB I salute you, as well as the other white artists that have broken into the BET Awards with a nomination.

Eminem’s latest single to hit radio is FIRE…Produced by Dr. Dre, this song brings back some of that old angry Eminem sound…does anyone else think this sorta sounds a little Wu-Tangish?

Mr. Marshall Mathers has been a busy man. “The Warning”, Eminem’s heartfelt take on dealing with a broken-down relationship, hit the streets this past week with people asking, “did he really have to go that hard on them?” Seriously, “The Warning” is possibly the most vicious diss on an R&B singer ever. Plus he made a cameo in last week’s number 1 in the box office film Funny People, and his latest album Relapse is still doing considerably well (I mean, it actually sold some CDs, which is tough these days).

But don’t forget, before Mariah issues there was Kim. Before talking about his drug addiction, there was his mom’s drug addiction. Let’s take a look back at Eminem’s earlier days as the “surprisingly good white rapper.”

Here Eminem rips it up on the world-famous Wake-Up Show.

Looks like they’re releasing a premium version of the DJ Hero game – DJ Hero: Renegade Edition.  It’s said to feature exclusive CDs from Jay-Z and Eminem.  To sweeten the deal, they’re also throwing in a special edition turntable-controller and a stand in the bundle.

Will this make me a better DJ? Probably not.  But I can guarantee I’ll have a crap-load of fun playing it.  Shoot… I’m already anxiously awaiting the arrivel of The Beatles: Rock Band.

Check out more photos and details from Joystiq.
