Eminem has nothin’ but love for Tupac.

When it comes to songwriting, the “Rap God” says Pac is the GOAT. While hosting his “Music to Be Quarantined By” show over the weekend on his SiriusXM channel Shade45, Em heaped praise on the West Coast rap legend.

Before playing “If I Die 2Nite” off 1995’s Me Against the World, he revealed why Pac’s pen was so potent. “This is one of them songs by Tupac that to me he was showing you like, I can write heartfelt shit and I can write lyrical crazy shit too,” he added before reciting lyrics from the Pac classic.

“The play on the P words and how he was doing it was so crazy, mixed with the feel that Tupac could give you, which is constantly why I feel like he was always saying, ‘Can you feel me?’ Because you felt Pac. You can’t just listen to Pac, you feel Pac. If you listen to him, you’re gonna feel him.”

During his “Music to Be Quarantined By” broadcast, Eminem also acknowledged EPMD for revolutionizing hip-hop with their blend of funk and rap, and revealed why Special Ed is one of his favorite rappers.

One Montreal borough is taking action to ensure things don’t go back to normal. Rosemont-La-Petite-Patrie has announced a pilot project to reduce car traffic and give priority to pedestrians and cyclists. The pilot project begins this summer.

The borough will establish nine “pedestrian-priority living environments” where only local traffic is permitted, “allowing local streets to offer more safe spaces for active users,” according to a statement.

It also promises “other innovative and safe measures” to “facilitate active travel and encourage the use of public space by residents, while respecting the rules of physical distancing.”

Rosemont-La-Petite-Patrie residents will also see an additional 50 kilometers of bike paths take shape

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Thursday that the federal government has reached an agreement “with all the provinces and territories” to give a wage increase to low-income essential workers across Canada.

“We are relying on them now more than ever, and that is why the Government of Canada is working with provinces and territories to provide them with a much-needed wage boost.”

Quebec has already announced a wage increase for some of its essential workers to close the gap between their current pay and the amount distributed through the federal Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) to individuals whose jobs have been impacted by the health crisis.

The Toyota RAV4 is the world’s best-selling SUV but it’s not necessarily the most eye-catching one.

Thankfully, a Japanese tuning shop by the name of Albermo has developed a bodykit to make the Toyota stand out from the pack. The bodykit, dubbed the XR51, takes inspiration from the Lamborghini Urus and adds some flair to the RAV4.

Priced at ¥240,000 JPY (approximately $2,600 USD), the body kit mirrors design cues from Lamborghini’s super-SUV. The bumper takes on the same shape as the prized four-door, with a gloss black covering designed to veil the Toyota Safety Sense system, effectively mimicking the Urus’ rear.

Take a detailed look at Albermo’s XR51 body kit above and head over to Albermo’s website for more information.
