Jay-Z/Eminem LP Would Be ‘Up There With Thriller,’ Fans Say
‘It would be impossible to find that album,’ says one fan of a potential collabo after historic Yankee Stadium concert.

Jay-Z and Eminem just finished their Home and Home showcase, with each MC headlining two nights at baseball stadiums in their respective hometowns, New York and Detroit.

But now that they’ve wrapped, is there the potential for the two to join forces again soon? News hit the pavement in the Bronx just outside of Yankee Stadium to pose the question to the people: Do you want to hear a joint Jay-Z and Eminem project?

“Eminem and Jay-Z together,” Karyn responded. “What a phenomenal duo — who can top that?”

Jay-Z has had his share of collabo albums in the past, including two with R. Kelly and a mash-up project with Linkin Park. Now, however, the Roc Nation boss is working on a joint LP with Kanye West. But most fans seemed to agree that a record with Jay-Z and Eminem would be historical.

“If Jay and Em did a record together, it would be off the hook,” Dot said.

“If God can bless this earth with Jay-Z and Eminem doing an album together, all hell would break loose,” Armaan told MTV News. “It would be impossible to find that album.”

Music-industry insider Eddie Blackmon agreed the project would move quickly off shelves. “They’re two of the greatest lyrical artists of our generation,” he explained. “I think if they got together and collaborated on a project, it’d sell millions and millions of records.” .
