Papa Roach's Jacoby Shaddix tells LAUNCH that his group jumped at the change to tour with Eminem this year. "You know, Eminem's manager was like, 'Who do you want to go tour with?' He's like, 'Man, is Papa Roach available?' So they call us and I'm like, 'Yes! We will tour, definitely,' you know? So that's gonna be cool. He's a cool cat, we made good friends with him. I was surprised (by), like, how down to earth he was. But I'm probably not supposed to say that."
Eminem told LAUNCH recently, "It's basically the same thing that it was the last Anger Management Tour without Sh-t [Limp] Bizkit."
