At one point in his career, Eminem almost departed on a world tour that would have made a lot of money.

50 Cent, who recently spoke with Bootleg Kev and revealed Eminem is working on new music, broke more news when speaking with BigBoyTV.

According to 50, Eminem was supposed to go on tour with Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg at the peak of his career, and it would have been worth “collectively, over $100 million (£80.2 million)”.

Unfortunately, Eminem turned it down because he was concerned about not seeing his daughter Hailie for such a long period of time.

Eminem once nearly went on a huge tour with Snoop Dogg and Dr Dre, according to 50 Cent.

Speaking to Big Boy TV, the rapper said the jaunt would have been worth “collectively, over $100 million (£80.2 million)” if it had gone ahead. But Eminem turned it down because he was concerned about not seeing his daughter Hailie for so such a long period on a lengthy tour.

“You do not believe how much money we would’ve made,” he said. “And Em was like — there was so many dates at the time the way they laid it out — that he was like, ‘I just don’t want to go on tour and come back and Hailie’s grown.’”

 

 

50 Cent’s latest comments come after he also revealed to LA radio station Real 92.3, that Eminem was working on a new album.

“He sent me a record now, he working now,” Jackson said. “He got some things man. Still the highest-selling rap artist in the world. We’re doing it now.”

Last week Eminem’s official YouTube channel inexplicably uploaded a lengthy jazz instrumental under the title ‘The Real Slim Shady’, leaving fans speculating as to what it could mean. The track was attributed to a mysterious ‘PhilipJones16’, but has since been deleted from his channel and re-uploaded elsewhere.

Post Malone also recently revealed that a planned collaboration with Eminem failed to happen on his new album ‘Hollywood’s Bleeding’ after the pair were unable to secure a time that worked for both stars.

“What a f*cking legend,” he said of Eminem. “There was a time where we were working everything out but just timing-wise, sometimes they just don’t match up at the right time. There will be a time.”
