Night two of Home and Home tour with Jay-Z was even more energetic than the kickoff.By Shaheem Reid Eminem performs in Detroit on Thursday Photo: Akshay Bhansali DETROIT — By the time Eminem got to "Cinderella Man," near the bottom of his set list on Friday night, the air was filled with so much audible adoration for Slim Shady, Sam Kinison himself could have rose from the grave and screamed in your ear and you wouldn't hear it. The crowd at Comerica Park were so loud, many people had to text message the person sitting right next to them. Once again, Eminem was treated like a pharaoh. He was the closer on a two-night stand of concerts headlined by him and Jay-Z. The stadium seemed a tad bit fuller and two notches louder than Thursday — that's not to say the love on Thursday from the audience wasn't overwhelmingly prevalent. Slim Shady is the undisputed reigning king of the Motor City. Once again, he turned in a very energetic, enthusiastic, inspired performance. This is a man in love with life it looks like. With Alchemist DJing, a band playing and Mr. Porter from D12 as his hypeman, Em's Friday set was close to Thursday's. Of the many guest stars who took the stage on the first night, only Drake, who had a show in San Francisco, was absent. Marshall Mathers rolled out instant classics, such as his opener, "Won't Back Down," and the song that made his career explode, "My Name Is." On the part of the song where Em raps "Dr. Dre says..." Dre Dre himself rose from under the stage. Cue pandemonium. Seeing a performance by Dre — who is rarely even seen anywhere, let alone a stage — is surreal as it gets. During "Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang," on which Eminem rapped Snoop Dogg's parts, 50 Cent strolled out onstage with a smile. Curiously, Em and Dre did not perform "Forgot About Dre." "I love y'all, Detroit," Dre said. "I appreciate the love again." Em, chimed in, "Detroit, do I love y'all or what?" He them commanded they show Dre how much they loved him. "Deeeeeetox" chants, rang out. "I'm going to the studio," the Doc answered with a smile. "Even in the rehearsals, after we did it, [Dre] was like, 'Yo, this is crazy.' I don't think he's been on a big stage since the Up in Smoke tour," Alchemist told MTV News earlier in the day. Em ended the night with "Not Afraid" and his encore "Lose Yourself." Once again, B.o.B opened the show, followed by Jay-Z. All three MCs from to New York on September 13 and 14.

Pop star makes appearance at historic hip-hop concert.By Mawuse Ziegbe Lady Gaga and Eminem (file) Photo: Christopher Polk/ Getty Images The stars definitely came out for Eminem and Jay-Z. The hip-hop heavyweights brought big-name guests like Dr. Dre, 50 Cent and Drake onstage during their two-night Home and Home Tour run at Detroit's Comerica Park. One megastar didn't hit the stage but did show support during the duo's final Motor City show: Lady Gaga. According to The Detroit News, the pop sensation, who was in town for her own Monster Ball Tour date on Saturday (September 4), checked out the show from a raised platform in the middle of the arena. Decked out in a silver miniskirt and sporting sable-colored locks, the native New Yorker grooved to Jigga and Alicia Keys' smash "Empire State of Mind." Gaga even threw up the Roc-A-Fella diamond when Hov ripped The Blueprint album cut "U Don't Know." reports the singer sipped from a plastic cup throughout the show and took in Jay's set for about an hour before retreating backstage. There's a good chance that Gaga and Em will cross paths during another major show: the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards. The hitmakers have corralled the most Moonmen nods, with Gaga landing a record-shattering 13 nominations and Eminem scoring eight. The pop supernova's "Bad Romance" and the chart-topping MC's "Not Afraid" will also face off in the coveted Video of the Year category After pulling off a slew of all-star guest appearances and shutting things down with two triumphant high-energy D-Town shows, Em will hit the stage at the VMAs, which will be broadcast live from Los Angeles on September 12.
