Eminem Remains a Devoted User of His Outdated Blackberry Phone Despite Network Shutdown Nearly Two Years Ago

 

Eminem is still a loyal user of his Blackberry phone despite the network shutdown over two years ago.

The 51-year-old rapper was spotted using the outdated device and typing on the phone’s small keyboard in an Instagram post shared by DJ Whoo Kid, 51, on Thursday.

The DJ wrote a caption about Eminem ‘trying to figure out’ who ate his food from his restaurant Mom’s Spaghetti in Detroit, Michigan and said: ‘And by the way, yes, he still has a Blackberry phone.’

The 15-time Grammy winner — who will be co-producing a documentary called Stans in reference to his 2000 hit song about fanatical fans — was seated on a couch beside the DJ and Denaun Porter in a dressing room.

In the photo, the Lose Yourself hitmaker was wearing a graphic T-shirt with Too Short’s Short Dog’s in the House album cover.

Over the top, he donned a nylon jacket with the hood worn over a gray baseball cap.

He also sported a pair of black joggers for his chill and relaxed ensemble.

He donned a pair of black frame glasses as well as a shiny gold chain around his neck.

The self-proclaimed Rap God also donned a flashy watch and bracelets as he typed away on his Blackberry.

Back in January 2022, key services were permanently shut down meaning that Eminem’s Blackberry device would only support calling and texting.

In DJ Whoo Kid’s post, he shared two other photos of a box of takeout from Eminem’s restaurant.

He joked about eating Eminem’s food and blaming their friend Denaun.

The trio were showing their support for Mom’s Spaghetti after a negative review recently went viral.

The rapper’s restaurant, which is named after a famous line from his song Lose Yourself, was recently panned by a food critic.

Mr. Chimetime, a popular food vlogger, shared a YouTube video on Saturday and said it was ‘the worst’ restaurant in Detroit.

He said he was wholly unimpressed by the food served at the restaurant founded by the ‘iconic’ Eminem, who he referred to as ‘one of the best rappers that ever lived’.

‘This is by far the worst spaghetti that I have ever had in my entire life of eating spaghetti,’ he said in his review video.
