From mentor to mogul to music icon, Eminem might actually check all the boxes for a killer Voice coach.
A recent piece from Collider makes a surprisingly convincing argument for Eminem joining The Voice as a coach — and it is not just wishful thinking. The article walks through how the show has welcomed wildcard picks like Snoop Dogg and Chance the Rapper in recent years, showing a clear shift from just pop and country heavyweights to hip hop figures with a story to tell.
Eminem, the journalist argues, has plenty of that. He has mentored artists through Shady Records, built a career from scratch, and knows exactly what it means to hustle through rejection and pushback — all stuff aspiring singers can relate to. Add in the stage presence, the storytelling, and the sheer star power, and you’ve got a coach artists would line up for.
Sure, it is all hypothetical, but now that the seed’s been planted, it’s hard not to picture Slim Shady hitting that red button.
And while this scenario is still in the land of “what ifs”, it is not completely far-fetched. NBC confirmed that The Voice is returning for a 28th season, announcing on April 23 that Snoop Dogg will be back in the coaching chair.
