Eminem Brings Out Dr. Dre & 50 Cent at Coachella
Just one day after Beyoncé turned Coachella into Beychella, Eminem closed out the first weekend of the festival with a fiery and nostalgic performance in the desert.
Mentor Dr. Dre, who headlined with Snoop Dogg in 2012, made a surprise cameo during Slim Shady’s set. The longtime collaborators performed “Still D.R.E.,” “Forgot About Dre,” and a reworked version of “Nuthin’ But a ‘G’ Thang” as a trip down memory lane.

50 Cent joined his Gatman and Robbin partner-in-rhyme for their “Patiently Waiting” collaboration. The G-Unit boss then ran through some classics of his own, including “I Get Money” and “In Da Club” before the duo got back together for “Crack a Bottle.”
