Did Eminem Know Tupac?

Question

Did Eminem ever know Tupac personally? Did they ever rap together or anything like that? Was there a time-being when both rappers were rapping at the same time, or did Eminem start after Tupac died?

Answer 1

Eminem -
Marshall Bruce Mathers III (born October 17 1972), better known by his stage name Eminem or Slim Shady, is a Grammy and Academy Award-winning American rapper, record producer and occasional actor.
He strted becoming popular from 1996, when he released an independent underground album named Infinite The album received no airplay and a mixed critical response.

but-

Tupac Sakur was shot dead on September 13, 1996 in Las Vegas, Nevada, just at the time enimem released his first album.

I even doubt if Enimem has seen Tupac's performance not to speak of performing together.-

Answer 2

im pretty sure he started after tupac died bc eminem was still in high school in tupacs early years. many artists have been putting their verses into tupacs (example: pacs life by tupac, ashanit and T.I.- OR i forgot the name of the song but its tupac and rhianna...) so if all these people did it, im sure eminem did it too. I know eminem has been producing alot of his recent stuff...

Answer 3

I'm not sure, but i think Eminem knew of Tupac, but that Eminem came after Tupac, sorry it's not much help.

Answer 4

tupac died eight years ago, eminem's first album was released seven years ago. Depending on how well Eminem was known in the hip hop scene it is doubtful they would have known each other, I would say they definately would not have performed together - though he may have met tupac.

Answer 5

No, Tupac was dead and gone before Em even got his break

Answer 6

why is this question in history instead of meaningless popular artists who will be forgotten in ten years?

Answer 7

No, he didn't.
