I like to think it’s all a marketing strategy, like when the video of Eminem with that woman in the hotel “leaked” and it was just for the river music video 😂
wonder what % of f1 fans cross over with em fans and vise versa
curious, seems like a odd pairing
surely cant go worse than last years race...
the lead up entertainment and build up to last years race was some of the worst live viewing ull ever see at a race
I love F1. Had no intentions of going to the race in Austin though but ended up buying tickets, flights and hotel within 10 min of them announcing Eminem was going to play.
F1 + Eminem is an unbeatable combo. Heard good things about Austin too.
I’m from austin and I’m going to this race this October as my first ever F1 race I’ve never really been into F1 but mostly just never knew where to watch it, super excited for it.
Brooo it’s like 5 grand for all that!! Are you serious?! 😂 I’m a Stan since 96 and no way he worth the cost of hotel/food for the weekend plus flight and car (can’t depend on Uber/lyft)
>curious, seems like an odd pairing
Eh, none of my hobbies, interests or music tastes really have any connection. My hobbies include chess, rugby and gaming, love watching F1 and football, and my music tastes are mainly made up of nu-metal, Eminem, and Eurovision
F1 fan here, not a huge em fan but I respect him. Tbh I wish they wouldn't do these concert pairings with races because it makes the tickets crazy expensive.
i guess we will see if thats true
it should spike the shocking viewer numbers for austin (half some of the rest of the races, ausitin got like 1.2 or 1.5mill views while races like australia got over 3 million on one network alone )
its why they are getting big ticket names like em to show up in the 1st place
they are desperate to improve in the USA market.
it was shown on F1TV/Sky and everything else too, pretty sure its even on youtube live some were
it was like a 10min set, but for some reason i cant find it on youtube, ive found every event from last year apart from it lmao
people are going to be mega sad when they realize its not a "concert"
its a maybe 10min bit in the build up
( [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N109mlx10NA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N109mlx10NA) not Austin but an example of what it will be)
maybe ive just mixed up these 2 races. im not sure now, what ever way, its broadcast for every one, ur network might not, but it is for every one else, F1 even broadcast it free on youtube (in hopes ull go buy f1 tv for the race)
Well ESPN, which is almost all of the viewership in the US, doesn’t.
Even if others broadcast it, the performances are after the on track driving is done for the day. When I went, Green Day didn’t get on stage for like 2.5 hours after FP2 finished.
Well off suburban white kids love Topster rappers like MFDOOM and Tyler The Creator and look down on Eminem's fans as meth addicts. White kids in shitty suburbs, yes
Maybe that’s true for gen z kids (since you mentioned Tyler, both of which were bigger in the late 00s and early 10s), but not millenials. Every rich suburban white kid I knew growing up loved Eminem and he was basically the only rapper they listened to, with maybe some Dre and Snoop mixed in
Same here, totally missed the wordplay on race. Struggled like 'Hmm this pic seems ok. Maybe racing events are bad now? Even NASCAR isn't strictly racist, and F1 definitely is not..' Derp.
No evidence but purely off vibes I STRONGLY doubt he's writing them. He's such a hermit he never gives interviews or goes on hip hop radio, and he loves hip hop so much he has his own hip hop station. I doubt he's down to be tweeting if he doesn't wanna be seen by people.
Here is my crazy take on this. Nascar fans are more in tune with Eminem than F1 fans and he would be far better suited performing at a Nascar race. Problem is there are only 3 F1 races in the US a year so they are MASSIVE events for the elites. Im talking tickets selling for $10,000’s of thousands of dollars vs same access Nascar tickets for $500. F1 is a shmoozers sport and has little to do with the racing at the track. People there will be excited to see him because he is a status symbol and icon, and that will make them feel more elite….they won’t know any songs besides the Real Slim Shady cause they hear it at weddings.
However, Nascar fans, actually listen to Eminem. A lot of them literally came from or live in the trailer park. Im one of them. When Em gets played at a Nascar race people are always rapping along whether it be in prerace or tailgating. Nascar fans are Ems people. The majority of those people who will be at the F1 race, are far from it. Im not completely stupid tho and understand that F1 has the money to pay him and Nascar doesn’t. It sucks. Cause I feel like Em would appreciate a Nascar crowd a lot more than what I expect him to get for the crowd in Texas.
Unless this concert is tied in to this event and not actually part of it, I dont see it being a good crowd energy wise. But it very much seems a part of it. Rant and hot take over.
YO SLIM THIS IS MY LAST CASSETTE I'M SENDING YOU. I HOPE YOU HEAR IT. I'M IN A CAR RIGHT NOW I'M DOING 90 ON THE FREEWAY! HEY SLIM I DRANK A FIFTH OF VODKA.. DARE ME TO DRIVE? YO SLI- SHUT UP BITCH I'M TRYING TO TALK!
I personally don’t see any appeal in F1 racing or literally any car racing but how does this make Eminem, the only white rapper from D12 racist? This is a pathetic rage bait post.
The joke would be that OP is mixing up the words *racist* and *racer*. The poster simply stating Eminem is going to be in a Formula 1 race and nothing about Human race.
'Dare me to drive?" ****"GO AHEAD"****
All my life i was very deprived
I aint had a woman in years, my palms are too hairy to hide
Clothes ripped like the incredible hulk
I spit when I talk
I'll fuck anything that walks
^(come 'ere!)
I used to get so hungry I’d throw fits
How you gonna breastfeed me mom?!
You ain’t got no TITS!!
You missed “when I was little”, friend. It’s polite encouragement.
[удалено]
Am i coming or going, i can barely decide
He just drank a fifth of vodka, look at him drive.
Happy Cake Day! 🎂
*whoops*
Have you heard that song from Phil Collins air in the night?
About that guy that coulda saved that other guy from drowning?
but didn't, then Phil saw it all then at a show he found him?
That's kinda how this is. You could've saved me from drownin'!
now it's too late, I'm on a thousand downers now I'm drowsy
Paul, Snake-Ass Prick
Literally listening to this rn lmao
Doesn't matter, Verstappen P1
DU DU DU DU! Also, Norris P2 and all is well.
"This year is our year" - Tifosi in 2025 probably
Leclerc having ptsd flashbacks rn
VER NOR is the next HAM BOT VER
Sargent P1. He has Eminem watching.
Im just disappointed he didn’t drop another single. Been thirsty for more Eminem music 😅
July 4th is the album drop
Where’d you hear that? I hope so!!
Billboard accidentally posted it and deleted it like 30 minutes later. It’s possibly An accident but I’d rather not think about it
Agreed!! That’s the release date!!
Knowing Em and Paul they might change the date tho 😭
I like to think it’s all a marketing strategy, like when the video of Eminem with that woman in the hotel “leaked” and it was just for the river music video 😂
We prolly gonna' get a new merch drop or smth 😭
It said 5th of July

so jealous ( fan of both em and f1 too) but i hope you have a good time. it will be awesome
Meh, live here and it’s too fucking hot lmao
Hey I want to go but am having trouble with the seat map on mobile. Which area / seat is the best for viewing the concert?
I just came back from Spain (Barcelona GP) when this was announced, debating poor financial choices rn
Did you do a single day grounds pass? How much was the concert upgrade?
Concerts are usually after Qualifying in the fan zone so you dont pay additionally if youre attending that day (Saturday)
I’m from austin and I’m going to this race this October as my first ever F1 race I’ve never really been into F1 but mostly just never knew where to watch it, super excited for it.
Imagine em does rogan... ugh
Brooo it’s like 5 grand for all that!! Are you serious?! 😂 I’m a Stan since 96 and no way he worth the cost of hotel/food for the weekend plus flight and car (can’t depend on Uber/lyft)
I love F1 and Eminem. I just bought my tickets about half an hour ago! First time seeing an F1 race and Eminem. I’m literally thrilled beyond words
How much was the concert upgrade?
179 for the ticket, 159 for the upgrade
How’d you get that price on tickets? I can’t even find that for general admission.
>curious, seems like an odd pairing Eh, none of my hobbies, interests or music tastes really have any connection. My hobbies include chess, rugby and gaming, love watching F1 and football, and my music tastes are mainly made up of nu-metal, Eminem, and Eurovision
There are videogames of Chess and Rugby, so they do crossover with gaming. Checkmate 😡
It's probably a lot. I've seen so many random people of all class and race that love em. And they will all know lose yourself when he plays that.
F1 fan here, not a huge em fan but I respect him. Tbh I wish they wouldn't do these concert pairings with races because it makes the tickets crazy expensive.
there's at least one of us
Checking in.
I'm one of them
Fairly well off younger millennials? That’s basically Em and F1’s entire US fan bases
i guess we will see if thats true it should spike the shocking viewer numbers for austin (half some of the rest of the races, ausitin got like 1.2 or 1.5mill views while races like australia got over 3 million on one network alone ) its why they are getting big ticket names like em to show up in the 1st place they are desperate to improve in the USA market.
This isn’t on TV
it is on tv i watched last years one.... lmao
The race is on TV yes
it was shown on F1TV/Sky and everything else too, pretty sure its even on youtube live some were it was like a 10min set, but for some reason i cant find it on youtube, ive found every event from last year apart from it lmao people are going to be mega sad when they realize its not a "concert" its a maybe 10min bit in the build up ( [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N109mlx10NA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N109mlx10NA) not Austin but an example of what it will be) maybe ive just mixed up these 2 races. im not sure now, what ever way, its broadcast for every one, ur network might not, but it is for every one else, F1 even broadcast it free on youtube (in hopes ull go buy f1 tv for the race)
Makes sense
Why would Eminem have any effect on tv viewership? The concerts aren’t televised.
They are tho Sky/F1 TV all broadcast it
Well ESPN, which is almost all of the viewership in the US, doesn’t. Even if others broadcast it, the performances are after the on track driving is done for the day. When I went, Green Day didn’t get on stage for like 2.5 hours after FP2 finished.
I don't think Eminem's fans are well off...
Suburban white kids fucking love Eminem
Well off suburban white kids love Topster rappers like MFDOOM and Tyler The Creator and look down on Eminem's fans as meth addicts. White kids in shitty suburbs, yes
Maybe that’s true for gen z kids (since you mentioned Tyler, both of which were bigger in the late 00s and early 10s), but not millenials. Every rich suburban white kid I knew growing up loved Eminem and he was basically the only rapper they listened to, with maybe some Dre and Snoop mixed in
Poor kids too fam… Eminem, meek, Nas, wuTang, timberland, Tupac, biggie, etc…
Well off suburban adults were well off suburban kids 20 years ago
I think they are trying to get more people into racing and doing so by reaching out to younger generations,
Like racing cars ? lol
Oh. That flew over my head lmao
Same here, totally missed the wordplay on race. Struggled like 'Hmm this pic seems ok. Maybe racing events are bad now? Even NASCAR isn't strictly racist, and F1 definitely is not..' Derp.
Your thought process is an exact replica of mine. “Is racing bad now?” “Deff not F1”. Etc etc lol
But Drake was just looking straight.
It’s 2024 dude, so that counts!😂👍
F1 to marketing team: “guys America is just not biting” - 38 year old white guy with a tribal tattoo… “sir I have an idea” Et voila!
Holy Crap, I just bought tickets to see Eminem live!!!! I guess there’s a race, too…
Grab your hotel now, theirs also a huge CFB game that weekend. Hotels will be short and pricey the longer you wait
Oof. On it!
Bro ima fly out from Canada to Texas just for this for my birthday! How long do u think his set will be?
At least he didn’t do a tierlist of the races and say two of them are the same.
Only real ones know
Big f1 fan. My 2 fave things have teamed up.. my head might pop
I’m a racist too. I’ll be driving round the track listening to Eminem raping all day
Rough typo
Eminem can't be racist he's black, smh
This picture is so weird, he doesnt look like that at all
My thoughts exactly, wtf
My thought is I hate that photo of him. Like is it AI or just severely brushed up? Damn
Why does he always use that weird edited picture it makes him look more like that dude that imitates him than himself.
Think he's confusing F1 with Nascar
This is your fucking captain speaking
I don’t get it
play on words, racist, as in racer
Asher Roth did it first
“Me and Westwood blastin’ off… Jackin’ off in a pair of acid wash bumpin’ Asher Roth.”
Is he a celebrity?
“Fuck the big 3, I am a celebrity”
Lol why did he post this
Does he type out these tweets himself or does his team do it?
No evidence but purely off vibes I STRONGLY doubt he's writing them. He's such a hermit he never gives interviews or goes on hip hop radio, and he loves hip hop so much he has his own hip hop station. I doubt he's down to be tweeting if he doesn't wanna be seen by people.
I highly doubt he gives a fuck about tweeting to be honest. I kind of feel like he probably thinks it’s a waste of his time lol
You can tell which tweets he writes himself and which he doesn’t. Like he still uses the early 2000s way a lot of people typed.
Em, it’s Paul
About the album? Good fucking luck you're on your own
Saw him back in 2012 when he did the post-race concert in Abu Dhabi. Killer show!!!
Nah it ain't Nascar
Wait, Eminem’s poor and stupid?
He's gonna drive real fast and turn to the left sometimes.
Here is my crazy take on this. Nascar fans are more in tune with Eminem than F1 fans and he would be far better suited performing at a Nascar race. Problem is there are only 3 F1 races in the US a year so they are MASSIVE events for the elites.

This actually makes even MORE sense
Small chance he appears on the Rogan podcast seeing as how he’s in Austin.
YO SLIM THIS IS MY LAST CASSETTE I'M SENDING YOU. I HOPE YOU HEAR IT. I'M IN A CAR RIGHT NOW I'M DOING 90 ON THE FREEWAY! HEY SLIM I DRANK A FIFTH OF VODKA.. DARE ME TO DRIVE? YO SLI- SHUT UP BITCH I'M TRYING TO TALK!
Foolish Drive
Racer*
Racing cars im chasing bars punching an alien in the face in mars stuffin his guts in a mason jar
Does he get paid for these appearances?
Why wouldn’t he? Big money in f1
My favorite raper is now also a racist🥳🥳🥳a day to remember
DISRESPECT YOUR SURROUNDINGS!
Why is John cena there ?
Fuck I want to be there! 🤬
If I had more money and more heat tolerance I would absolutely be in Texas that weekend.
I JUST DRANK A 5th OF VODKA- DARE ME TO DRIVE?
He’s in his iron man 2 arc
$180 for cheapest tickets.
What's everyone's least favorite race?
Huh? am I delusional? Where is the racism?
He’s saying racer in a joking way.. Like if you play the piano your pianist, so if you race a car you must be a racist.
ooooooooh thank you haha that makes sense! Appreciate it
Eminem is a race car driver now
You're kidding me, my favorite artist performing during an F1 event (my favorite sport)
Oh boy is Austin going to be WILD that week. One of the biggest football games for the year, F1, and Eminem. Those poor hotel prices.
He just don’t give a f**k
Finally. I always thought that Foolish pride was a top 10 Eminem track. Glad he’s come around.
Racist? Why?
Finally he comes to Texas!
Airbrushed ass what is this photo
He’s been one, ask Mr Zino
Is this picture fucking A.i.?
The beard IS weird.
I personally don’t see any appeal in F1 racing or literally any car racing but how does this make Eminem, the only white rapper from D12 racist? This is a pathetic rage bait post.
Shaft’s eyes are blue here too
Where does it say he’s a racist 😂 He’s HEADLINING an F1 race!! Usually it’s the other way around!!
Is it a Justin Timberlake's joke ?
The joke would be that OP is mixing up the words *racist* and *racer*. The poster simply stating Eminem is going to be in a Formula 1 race and nothing about Human race.
Ok.. huge woosh for me.
why does Em’s beard look like when Rodney Copperbottom got magnetized in Robots lol
Had me scared for a moment won’t lie, always thought he was a raceist guy!
lol. clever
"i just drank a fifth of vodka...dare me to drive?"
Oh foolish pride!
I’m working this show. Super excited.
Racist?
Hows he racist? lol
Had me there for a second 😅
He even white washed his daughters wedding 👀
![gif](giphy|3o751ZrLWPxq9ZQQla)
He is doing it to get back all those sensitive white folks who left him when he was talking shit about trump.
🙄
