Eminem‘s endurance shows no sign of evaporating.
The rapper made headlines the world over when he surprise released his 10th studio album ‘Kamikaze’ on August 31st and the set has been flying off shelves at a feverish rate ever since.
Over the course of its opening week, the project’s sales forecasts were revised up – and then up again – as excitement about the album spread.
So, where did it ultimately end up on the Billboard 200? At #1 and the numbers await below…

When Justin Timberlake was announced as the headliner for the 2018 Super Bowl Halftime Show last year, many were enraged. And for much of that mass, the only means of quelling their fire of fury was if Janet Jackson would be invited to join him.
For, as etched in history, Jackson and Timberlake infamously experienced the 2004 wardrobe malfunction seen around the world when the former NYSNC’er ripped off more than planned from the diva’s outfit – revealing her breast to viewers.
The moment lasted for a fraction of a second, but was enough to cause dismal damage to Jackson’s career. Indeed, just this week, it was revealed in a shocking exposé that ousted CBS president Les Moonves (now on the hook for a multitude of sexual abuse allegations) launched a blacklist of all things Jackson across CBS owned properties. Why? Because he allegedly felt she didn’t sufficiently apologize to him in the grovelling manner Timberlake did – despite the entire episode being an accident.
Amidst the anger surrounding Timberlake being invited to perform all these years later, there was growing hope that Janet would make an appearance. Perhaps as a means of re-writing history once and for all.
As history would have it, the 52-year-old did not take to the stage with JT – whose performance was unanimously panned.
Did she ever plan to? While doing the promo rounds for new single ‘Made For Now,’ one interviewer boldly quizzed Jackson on the matter.
Her response, which you can check out below, was all sorts of interesting…
Chris Brown’s ongoing legal spat with the mother of his daughter Royalty has reached new lows now that the innocent child has been accused of stealing to fund her mother’s lifestyle.

As rap beefs go, few were as spicy as Drake and Meek Mill’s 2015 duel over ghostwriting accusations.
Indeed, who could forget the oh so personal jabs of Drizzy’s ‘Back To Back’ and ‘Charged Up’? Or the lukewarm response that greeted Meek’s eventual response ‘Wanna Know’?
Well, it seems the stars themselves are putting the drama in the past.
Because on the Boston stop of the ‘Aubrey and the Three Migos Tour’ at TD Garden, Drake brought out his former foe for a surprise showing of ‘Dreams & Nightmares.’
More from the moving moment, which the duo say they hope will serve as an example, below… (more…)
The Harper’s Bazaar ‘New York Fashion Week‘ party saw the Hip-Hop superstar Cardi B clash with her peer Nicki Minaj this weekend.
Separated by security, the ladies now find themselves dominating headlines fuelled by footage captured on the night.
Quite interestingly, the first batch of videos that hit the net failed to capture the entire story.
Because? A new video unlocked today seems to dispel claims that the injury Cardi sustained wasn’t handed to her by one of Minaj’s guards…but by Minaj herself.
Watch below…
Kanye West and Jay Z dropped one of the most critically acclaimed LPs of the decade with their collaborative chart-topping effort, ‘Watch the Throne’ (2011).
Featuring the hits ‘No Church in the Wild’ and ‘N*ggas in Paris,’ the platinum-selling set garnered Grammy nods galore and remains a fan favorite among the duo’s prized discographies.
A tough act to follow, ‘Watch’ – given its success and the reported friction between West and Jay over recent years – was expected to be a one-time deal. But, if a recent statement from the controversial emcee is anything to go by, fans may be granted a follow-up to the project sooner than expected…
Having already made a splash on music charts with early 2000’s hits ‘Just A Friend,’ ‘Crying Out For Me,’ and ‘Let Me Love You,’ it looks like Grammy-nominated R&B singer Mario is looking to make just as big of a splash on the small screen as the newest recurring cast member of FOX’s ‘Empire.’
