Eminem Is Past the Age Where He Said He’d Stop Making Music as He Celebrates Birthday

Eminem has previously mentioned that he wanted to retire at the age of 50. Well, he’s now officially a part of the over-50s club. Does that mean the end of his career might be near? We hope not! Read on to find more information about the rapper’s plans for the future.

Eminem’s Iconic Career

Eminem recently celebrated his 51st birthday (October 17, to be exact) which made fans wonder if the rapper will put an end to his legendary career.  It’s hard to believe that we may never get to hear new lyrics or witness another iconic speech from Eminem.

However, Slim Shady has mentioned that he wasn’t sure of how much longer he would be on stage. When Eminem proclaimed himself as the Rap God at 37, he shared his fear of being past his prime by the time he turns 50.

Plans for the Future

Eminem won a Grammy for his debut album The Slim Shady LP in 1999. Maybe this was such a milestone in his career that he thought he would have nothing left to say at the age of 50. The rapper said that he could continue doing music, but he wasn’t sure if he could pull off his signature lyrics and make it all work. He even had doubts about whether people would still want to listen to his music.

These days, Marshall may not be in the spotlight all the time, but he’s still supporting fellow artists. He recently joined his longtime friend 50 Cent for a Final Lap tour performance in Michigan. A few months earlier, he surprised fans after appearing at Ed Sheeran’s Detroit show for his Mathematics world tour. Hopefully, the excitement of the crowd inspired him to keep spitting bars. Last month, the rapper finally entered the Top 10 list of the highest-selling artists of all time.
