Eminem‘s lyrics have made their way into a local weather report in Houston thanks to a creative meteorologist named Adam Krueger.
The chief meteorologist at CW39 Houston, Krueger has been having fun with various rappers’ lyrics in his forecasts as of late. When a fan on TikTok challenged him to use Em’s lyrics, Krueger quickly accepted – resulting in lines from both “The Real Slim Shady” and “Without Me” being snuck into the broadcast.
“One last dry day, but guess who’s back, back again? Rain is back, tell a friend,” Krueger said referencing “Without Me.”
For his bars from “The Real Slim Shady,” Krueger said, “You’re probably thinking, ‘Oh wait, no wait – you’re kidding. He didn’t just say what I think he did, did he?’” as he spoke about an incoming cold front.

Meanwhile, the real Slim Shady has reportedly entered into a legal battle with The Real Housewives of Potomac‘s Gizelle Bryant and Robyn Dixon. According to a report, the Detroit rapper filed an opposition against the pair of reality stars in an attempt to block their popular Reasonably Shady podcast from trademarking its name.
In the documents, Eminem claims his brand will be “damaged” if the reality stars are issued the trademark for their show, stating the name “Reasonably Shady” can “cause confusion in the minds of consumers” due to people knowing him as Shady and Slim Shady for most of his career.
Em currently owns the trademark for “Shady” to use on merchandise and has exclusively used “Slim Shady” and “Shady” for entertainment services since 1998.
Dixon and Bryant filed to trademark “Reasonably Shady” with plans to sell products such as water bottles, lip gloss, sweatshirts, hats, jackets and socks.
The Reasonably Shady podcast began in 2021 and includes conversations about dating, relationships, marriage, entrepreneurs, motherhood, style, current events and more, reaching over five million downloads in under two years.
Dixon and Bryant have yet to respond to Eminem’s notice of opposition, but have until March 26 to do so.
