Drake Calls Eminem ‘Under Appreciated’ & Shows Love To Snoop Dogg

61

Drake is one to always show love to the artists who paved the way as well as those who came after him. While watching footage from 2000’s Up In Smoke Tour, the 6 God paid homage to Eminem and made sure to give him his flowers.

“Man this guy is underappreciated @eminem,” he posted on Thursday morning (October 28).

Drake then posted another photo of Em and a separate Story highlighting Snoop Dogg, who he called “too raw.” The West Coast tour featured Eminem, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, Nate Dogg, Xzibit and more. The 44-date nationwide trek kicked off on June 15 and ran through August 20, 2000.

Eminem and Drake joined forces once before on 2009’s “Forever” alongside Lil Wayne and Kanye West, which served as a knighting of sorts for Drake to enter the gates to Hip Hop’s elite. Drizzy also interpolated Em’s “Superman” chorus on “Chicago Freestyle.”

Last year, Eminem offered up Drake some advice as it pertains to being on top of the game on Music To Be Murdered By – Side B track “Zeus.”

“And, Drake, they’re gonna turn on you one day too / And the more you win, the sooner they do,” he warned.

Ice Cube recently sat down with HipHopDX where he reflected on the Up In Smoke Tour having Eminem lower on the bill than most would think.

“I mean, at the time, Eminem was opening up, you know,” he said. “Like, after Warren G, Eminem was going on. So that just shows you the level that we were at, that we was on. He could’ve headlined.”
