Jay‑Z Brings Eminem Onstage for 'Renegade' During Yankee Stadium Residency

A surprise onstage duet connects the residency’s album‑by‑album focus to reports of a Jay‑Z and Eminem contribution to a Rakim‑led album due August 28.

Overview

  • Eminem joined Jay‑Z to perform their 2001 collaboration “Renegade” during the second night of the three‑night Yankee Stadium run, with Eminem also delivering “Lose Yourself” over a modified Jay‑Z instrumental.
  • The residency is built around milestone anniversaries with Night One honoring Reasonable Doubt and Night Two presenting The Blueprint in near‑original sequence, and a third “Extra Innings” show set to close the run.
  • All three New York dates sold out after a March presale that drew exceptionally high demand, with outlets reporting more than 1.6 million fans in the queue and Night Two the most in demand.
  • Roc Nation pairs the limited stadium events with citywide archival pop‑ups and premium merchandise to concentrate access and collectible value, a strategy that helps extend the campaign into announced international dates.
  • Multiple outlets report that Jay‑Z and Eminem are expected to appear together on a Rakim‑led album due August 28, which would be their first reported studio collaboration since the original “Renegade.”
