  9. Not only Em backed by the Roots, but Alchemist was there scratching as well…it was alot of hip-hop happening right there.

  10. I thought Em was lip syncing when the beat was turned down so was his vocals.

    But still I copped both Em’s & The Root’s cd at Best Buy and neither dissapoint.

    P.S. While I was watchin the Em x Jay performance I was thinking The Roots should do a remix mixtape to a collectio of their songs with their own beats. I mean Em & Jay both did shit with The Roots. Just an idea.

  13. @ DOUG: around 1:56 his lips move but no words r coming out. i know he’s cursing in that line but the show didnt bleep it so obviously the words were cut from the track thats being played.

  20. em > u faggots

    think thats pretty obvious tho

  21. Dice Raw had a hellaofajob trying to hype for Em. Em’s rhyme structure is unique to say the least.

    cdoakes said this on June 27th, 2010 at 7:40 am

  22. I dont think Em was lip syncing, its clear to see when him and Mr Porter go back and forth, and when Mr Porter fills in for him.

    The part where the Micheal J Fox reference is edited out and when the beat is turned down in the third verse was probably edited by the TV studio afterwards

  28. @mintaur if that was lip syncing i don’t know how he looked like he was dying at the end haha.

    Doug said this on June 27th, 2010 at 10:19 pm

  29. I like how I’ve noticed that they won’t let Black Thought do guest verses anymore cause the artist knows they’ll get blown away if he goes. Haven’t seen him guest since Wale came on

    |3lackstar said this on June 27th, 2010 at 10:51 pm

  30. Eminem, The Roots, Alchemist and Denaun Porter aka Mr. Porter. Nice performance. Yeah Black Thought was killing the guest verses on past performances.

  33. it isn’t lip synching you rejects it’s the track. if his vocals were not turned down then the track wouldn’t make sense. pay attention to tha lyrics instead of hatin’.. word
