The 39-year-old rapper also told the radion station that his Hip Hop group Slaughterhouse will be participating at this year's Summer Jam concert. "Yeah, well, I actually talked to the guys, and they wanna do it so, I mean, I guess we'll just make it official?"

Slaughterhouse will be performing at the Summer Jam concert June 3. The group consists of Joel Ortiz, Joe Budden, Crooked I and Royce da 5'9". Their new album "Welcome to: Our House" will be released on June 12. Eminem says: "I really feel this group... like you said, I really feel like hip-hop needs this, man. I think people will see when this album comes out too."
