Eminem Still Uses a BlackBerry in the Year of Our Lord 2024
The BlackBerry has been defunct since 2022.
Eminem appears to be living in the past.
It’s been discovered that the “Lose Yourself” rapper still has a BlackBerry. The revelation was shared by DJ Whoo Kid, who shared a photo of him, Eminem, and D12’s Mr. Porter hanging out on a couch, where Em is using a BlackBerry.
“Eminem was trying to figure out who ate his last mom’s spaghetti box in the dressing room,” Whoo Kid wrote. “I was like [shrug] @momsspaghettidetroit. I told him it was @iamdenaun. And by the way yes. He still has a BlackBerry phone.”
Let’s be honest: who doesn’t miss their BlackBerry? The phone has been defunct since 2022 when BlackBerry shut down its servers. The last model the company released was the BlackBerry Evolve and Evolve X in 2018. It’s unclear what kind of functionality Eminem’s device has, or how he can still use it.
The joke about the Detroit rapper’s restaurant, Mom’s Spaghetti, seems to be a reference to a negative review that went viral on YouTube. A critic named Mr. Chimetime denounced the eatery’s food as “complete ass” because it tasted like a school lunch—but that seems to be the gimmick, to “taste like a leftover sauce,” per the website.
