‘TRL’ Hip-Hop Countdown: Eminem Rules!
What kinda world would we be living in if Soulja Boy (Tell ‘em) beat out Slim Shady on TRL’s all-time greatest hip-hop hits countdown? No world I’d wanna live in, that’s fa show. The way I see it? Soulja Boy’s lucky to have even made it onto the shortlist of the show’s best-ever hip-hop videos. But the question remains… WHERE THE HULL IS LIL WAYNE? (BTW, mazel tov on that baby boy, Weezy!) I demand a recount! Damien? Get on that!
Anyway, Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” found its way to #1 on today’s countdown, Jay-Z’s classic swagger track, “Big Pimpin’” locked up #2, Outkast’s “Hey Ya” — the song that inserted “Shake it like a Polaroid picture” into the pop culture lexicon for forevskies — and Missy Elliott’s mesmerizing “Get Ur Freak On” video made #8.
Watch the highlights below, check out the rest of TRL’s greatest hip-hop videos here, and don’t miss some very special out-of-studio experiences on tomorrow’s show, at 3:30pm ET.

The finale is coming up and tommrow there reviling a big name thats gonna be there.

Eminem Confirms New Album ~~~ “Relapse”
Today was the party held by Shade 45 for the release of Eminem’s new book “The Way I Am”. During a live interview Eminem said his new album will be called “Relapse.” Eminem is known for joking around and with Dr Dre’s new album called “Detox,” it’s hard to know for sure if Slim Shady is fucking with us. Either Interscope is about to drop the “Three Headed Moster” as 50 Cent calls it. With 50 releasing “Before I Self Destruct” on December 9th, then Eminem’s “Relapse” in the first quarter of 09 and Dre’s “Detox” soon after, Interscope will for sure dominate record sales.
As we stated, the party was held for Eminem’s new book, with it hitting stores on the 21st. During the interview, Eminem did drop a freestyle, make sure you listen to it below & let us know what you think!

The Best Rapper Alive

Over 920,000 votes later, VIBE announces the winner of it’s first annual Best Rapper Alive tournament.
When VIBE decided to let the people decide The Best Rapper Alive, we just wanted to have a little fun. But with a final tally exceeding 920,000 votes, it’s safe to say we touched a nerve. Since the competition began on July 21, the NCAA tournament – style bracket sparked bedlam. T.I.? Nas? Joe Budden? Rick Ross? Decisions had to be – and were – made.
In the early rounds there were few upsets, as most of the higher-seeded competitors triumphed. Until the final eight MCs remained, it looked as though all four No. 1 seeds – Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, Eminem, and Andre 3000 – would land in the final four. But then, the bark of underdogs could be heard in the distance.
The lesser of the two upsets took place in the Big Punisher bracket. Andre was defeated by No. 3 seed The Game, just as his album, LAX (Geffen), was impacting nationwide. In the Pimp C bracket, Lil Wayne, the man who many thought would take home the title, lost to Ludacris, also a No. 3 seed. Unfortunately for The Game and Luda die-hards, Cinderella would not be anyone’s date to the big dance. Jay-Z and Eminem easily beat out Ludacris and Game respectively, setting up a titanic final matchup. In the end, Eminem prevailed in a surprising landslide victory. Despite no proper album releases, since 2004’s, Encore (Shady/Aftermath/Interscope), 69 percent of the votes went to Detroit’s native son easily outpacing office favorite Jay-Z’s 31 percent.

“Its obviously an honour to have won the fans’ support by being voted the Best Rapper Alive,” Eminem said in response to his victory. “I don’t think that there is any one rapper that is simply the best though. Everyone who was in consideration and many others are the best at certain things, and at what they do. But since VIBE’s offering the distinction, hell yeah I’ll accept!”
and there could be a party in perang hotel

so just wait theres a party for all of us

But no matter the victor, one thing was clear: The debate about who The Best Rapper Alive is (or is not) lives on. We just might have to do it again next year.

WAY I AM BOOK COMES WITH A DVD
On October 21st, Em is releasing his second book. The Way I Am is a collection of Marshall’s personal stories, reflections, photographs, original artwork, and never before published lyric sheets. In the first printing of the book, there is also a DVD included which contains Em’s personally shot video footage and unreleased interviews.
A couple of my favorite things about the book are the cover and the detachable lyric sheets. The cover is a red acetate film that slides over the traditional book print (similar to Jay-Z’s Kingdom Come CD). The red jacket masks the collage of Em’s handwritten lyrics on top of the underlying photo… you kind of have to see it to really get the effect. Also inside the book in the back are several perforated pages which one can pull out of the book. On these pages are reproductions of Em’s actual lyric sheets for songs like “Stan” and “Lose Yourself”. I fought hard for the book to have the pages detachable because there is something special about being able to hold the actual page in your hand and turn it around and around to decipher what Em’s semi-legible writing is saying. (Somehow he reads right off of the pages with ease and can see the song there). Again, you have to really see the lyric sheets to fully understand what I’m describing.
So, there are two ways to do that! First, of course, you can buy the book when it comes out on 10/21 everywhere in the U.S. Second, you can enter the Sirius Satellite Radio Shade45 contest for the book by clicking here. Grand prize winner will receive a all-expense paid trip to NYC for the book launch event along with other special prizes.
