EMINEM IN CAMEROON: FACT OR FICTION?

There are rumours circulating around that Eminem is due for a concert next week in Yaounde. According to this website, Eminem alongside international stars such as Chris Brown, Jermaine Dupri, Eve, 50 Cent to name a few are due on stage on the 28th of April at Stade Omnisports.


This is hard to believe as bringing all the above named stars to Cameroon is very ambitious considering the hefty cost that is involved in bringing along each act; remembering the artists' pay cheques, their entourage/security and their musical equipment.

Nevertheless, it is not totally impossible as Cameroon has been booming this year with international acts collaborating with big brands. Only last month, Akon was in concert in Douala. A collaboration between Smirnoff Cameroon and the star and next month, MTN's bringing us the duo Psquare for their MTN African Music Nite.

Should World Dream prove us wrong we will all see on the day which is fast approaching!

*UPDATE: The scheduled date of April 28th came and went, there was no show and certainly no Eminem and crew. The organisers sure got us talking about it. If we did not know any better, we would've concluded this to be a great PR ploy...or was it?

Fake fake and fake, there was no Eminem nor any of the above in Cameroon. Was there at the stadium on Saturday 28th and it was as dark and silent as usual

What is the cause of all the deceit, i almost got mad thinking i missed the show. But i pray i happens as tyme unfolds cos i love meeting these STARS, as the AKON show in douala i attended was hot.
