Eminem is confused over the “Without Me” parody by SNL. Reacts with an emoji.
Last month, SNL once again decided to make a parody of one of the tracks by Eminem, as they did a skit on NFT (Non-Fungible Token) for which they remake “Without Me“. The parody featured comedian Pete Davidson and rapper Jack Harlow playing Eminem’s part in the video.
The sketch began with Kate McKinnon as Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen addressing a gathering of economic students. As the camera pans to Pete Davidson dressed as the rapper’s faux superhero Rap Boy from the “Without Me” video, familiar notes from Em’s tune from The Eminem Show begin to play.
Chris Redd, dressed as Dr. Dre’s version of Morpheus from The Matrix, joins the conversation after stumping the professor. McKinnon, perplexed by the “total nonsense,” turns to the janitor (musical guest Jack Harlow) for a more “eloquent” explanation of what exactly is going on in NFT.
Now the Detroit Rapper finally saw the parody, as he retweets it on his social media with a confused emoji.

In the past, Eminem’s capsule collections have sold out time and time again, so joining the NFT realm looks to be something he will explore in the future. After the release of Music To Be Murdered By – Side B, we could see more of that from him. Pete Davidson has previously made fun of Eminem. Back in December, Saturday Night Live celebrated Christmas with some comedy skits which also featured a parody of Eminem’s classic “Stan” which also stars Pete Davidson, along with an appearance by Marshall himself.
