With the video for “Beautiful” on the way, Eminem talks about the importance of shooting the visuals for it in his hometown.
The video was filmed at noted Detroit landmarks, now past their prime though in many ways now more iconic than ever. Through locations such as the once-grand Beaux-Arts train station (Michigan Central Station, which was built in 1913), the original Tiger Stadium (built in 1912), and the old Packard Motor Car Company plant (established in 1903), the viewer sees both Detroit’s grand past and very real present, and Eminem finds in Detroit a new metaphor for the lyrical content of the song.
“Tiger Stadium is being torn down, and the train station is supposed to be demolished too. This video is one of the last times anybody outside of Detroit is going to see them,” commented Eminem. “I wrote ‘Beautiful’ when I was really down, during a difficult time struggling with my addiction. It’s a reminder to keep your head up, and to see who you really are despite what you may be going through. Now that I’ve gotten through the toughest part, I see how the song relates to Detroit, and it feels even more powerful to me.”

In the clip, 50 shoots down comparisons between his buzz as an unsigned artist to Aubrey’s.
“I didn’t hear that, I don’t think you can accomplish that right now. Not without finance. I
hear his record on the radio. He got a good buzz, I hear him. Shit, it
wasn’t possible for my music to be on the radio when I was coming. You
know mine’s was completely organic.”

[…] The music video for “BMF,” directed by Parris, is just as bold as the song itself. Premiering in July, the video showcases Ross surrounded by hip-hop royalty, including Diddy, DJ Khaled, Bun B, and Jadakiss. Cameos from Triple C’s, Gunplay, and Lex Luger solidify Ross’ position as a central figure in the rap game. The visual aesthetic is unapologetically extravagant. Thus, featuring flashy cars, lavish settings, and high-energy performance scenes. […]
