Shawn Carter and Marshall Mathers take to the rooftop of the Ed Sullivan Theatre for performances of their hit singles “On To The Next One” and “Not Afraid.” The two perform the classic cut “Renegade” from Jay-Z’s The Blueprint above.
More performances including Em’s Top Ten Pieces of Advice (for the kids) and Jay’s sit-down with Letterman after the jump…
2 living Legends right there..
That was sick as fuck.
incredible performance
lmao at him going in going in on the nets
wow going and in 2 times …lol time for bed
damn, that Renegades performance was straight hip-hop. both of them still got that shit. (i wonder how many people there were confused and thought it was a new song!)
man before i die i need to see these 2 perform together…
Legends.

Eminem – Wont Back Down (Live Performance W/ The Roots):
http://youraudiofix.com/2010/06/26/video-eminem-performs-wont-back-down-with-the-roots/
some say im too good/some say im too hood/ out of my brain, bully the game like a new suge/ i sonically keep the fuse lit, iconically be the muse for the movement as you should/like lenin to the bolsheviks/know what i am so i boast of it/liqour poured toast of it/dire openness,lyers get clapped over this/provide fire, young live wire, the rap chauvinist/they overzealous or over jealous/ either way watch the hate ooze/ur whole team a turn green without the fake jewels/i hate these snake dudes,i stashed packs in my ass crack just to make moves/now its 16′s of 8balls nigga play pool/so when i write i move white like a q ball/buy it by the brick then step on it like a q dog/its time for some furniture moving say hi too uhaul, good bye to you all!
C’mon, the performance wasn’t all that, certainly not “incredible”.
I’m a fan of both but it was pretty tame if you ask me.
Damn, i’d do anything to see these guys perform live together. Most of the crowd had no idea what they were witnessing.

Eminem’s on his clowning tip again.
Love it. He’s hilarious.
renegade was dope
yeah what the fuck did you guys watch? the performances were lacking energy… very subdued.
the performance was lacking energy.. i was just enjoying it performed tho. that song is one of my all time favorites.
jigga man forgot his lyrics to verse 2 at 2:40
lyrics are:
i had to hustle, my back to the wall ashy knuckles
pockets filled with alotta lint, notta cent
gotta vent, lotta innocent lives lost on the project bench
whatchu hollerin? gotta pay rent, bring dollars in
he said “notta bent” instead of gotta vent.. smh
(2)DOPE PERFORMANCE
“…and Eminem killed you on your own song!”–NaSir of course
Not Afraid with a live band is so much better
Wow. What a fucking venue. It actually looks amazing with all the skyscrapers surrounding them.
one of the better late night performances, sick rooftop venue
em X the roots killed it on fallon.
I thought these were epic performances, especially RENEGADE, just considering the circumstances, but for some reason, Em’s “Not Afraid” performance stuck out to me. It was the dopest I’ve seen the song be performed. Good stuff.
Jay is ill too, but he has this sort of lackadaisy delivery he kinda does…anyone else notice that?
?uestlove shouldve produced Not Afraid, it would make the beat tolerable…actually, itd make it good.
same with on to the next one
the roots>
they could make william hung sound good
jay-z son,what’s up whit this socks?? lol

Both of their deliveries were nearly flawless.
Except for Hov’s “mazagine”.
Had to lol at that.
Still got it tho.
Bought the house, tore the motherfucking land down :p
Slip hick-up… :D
really impressive on both their parts, this is how live hip hop should be performed
Yo what shoes do Em got on?
wonder how dope it would be if them two and Royce performed Renegades together.. shit would be timeless
