Eminem
Is there anything more cursed than the phrase “EminApe?” Probably not, but honestly, there’s nothing else you could call the Slim Shady themed ape that the rapper is sporting as his Twitter profile picture right now. The ape—which Eminem bought for a hefty $462,000 earlier this month—is the fourth NFT the rapper holds to his name. Other purchases, according to Eminem’s OpenSea account, include a picture of a skull with a feather through it and, uh, whatever the hell this is supposed to be.
Considering how Eminem is, at the very least, slogging through a “mid-career crisis,” these buys might just be an attempt at cultural legitimacy. Or maybe the dude just really, really likes spending hundreds of thousands on an ape cartoon that kinda looks like him. Only Eminem knows for sure.
