However, the bomb that has been dropped on them by Showtime Management that not fans will be able to enjoy the sounds of MMLP2 live!

The announcement comes on the back of several exciting concert announcements in recent times, including the likes of Bruce Springsteen and Carlos Santana. Eminem will be the next Grammy-Award-winning heavy weight to touch down in SA. 

Tickets will be going on sale this Thursday (21 November) and fans of the rapper will have their work cut out for them if they are to secure tickets for the 2-night-only concert. The concerts will form a part of The Rapture Tour which was originally thought to be held in Australia only, however, Showtime Management put a smile on all South African's faces when they announced that South Africa would be included in the tour.

Eminem will be performing at the Cape Town Stadium (In Cape Town, just in case it was unclear) on the 26th of February 2014 and he will be performing at Ellis Park Stadium in Johannesburg on the 1st of March 2014.
