Rap superstar battles adverse weather conditions at his first ever appearance in South America.

Thunder, lightening, wind and torrential rain provided the backdrop to Eminem’s first ever appearance at the F1 Rocks with LG in São Paulo show at the Jockey Club on November 5th.

Battling with the elements, soaked to the skin and standing ankle on the water-logged stage, the 38-year old rapper gave a thrilling performance in front of 25,000 adoring Brazilian fans, who braved the adverse conditions to show their appreciation with almost deafening enthusiasm.

While support acts N*E*R*D and local act Macelo D2 enjoyed more clement weather conditions, the sky opened just prior to Eminem’s performance, which was delayed by 30 minutes while organisers secured the stage.

Despite loss of power due to the driving rain and winds, which rendered the on stage video screen useless throughout his performance, the Eminem carried on regardless until his closing song, the Oscar winning ‘Lose Yourself’.
