First and foremost, Eminem made it known that he and all of Detroit are rooting for Matt Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams. “Stafford — first of all, we feel like this is the closest we’ll get to a Super Bowl, is through Matt Stafford,” he explained. “So, it’s a perfect scenario where I can root for a team that I like because of Matt Stafford and the Detroit connection.”
When Dr. Dre first approached Eminem with the Halftime Show idea, Eminem said, “I was trying to envision what Dre might do. I was thinking, like, ‘Yeah, it’s dope that all of us are going to rap together,’ right? And that kind of thing, but I didn’t expect the production to be like this. So, I was kind of blown away the first time I seen [sic] it. … Once you see it, it’s just different.”
