Eminem LIVE: Here’s what to expect

With just ONE WEEK TO GO before Eminem kicks off the South African leg of his Rapture 2014 tour, we thought we’d give you a look in to what to expect – from his Australasian setlist and some amazing photos from his Auckland show (taken by Jeremy Deputat) to some great live performances – both in studio and on stage.

Haven’t booked your tickets yet? Head on over to Computicket right now.

Eminem’s bringing American rapper Action Bronson and South African favourite Jack Parow to the stage as his supporting acts for the shows, which take place at Cape Town Stadium on 26 February and at Ellis Park on 1 March.

Wonder what Em’s like live? Well – we’ve dug up two epic performances. One of his hit single Berzerk from a recent appearance on BBC’s Radio 1, and the other of Lose Yourself from the 2003 Grammys.

So now… What do you reckon Slim could be performing in SA? While artists generally do switch out some tracks from place to place, here’s what he was rapping in New Zealand – and can thus be a pretty decent guideline on what to expect.
