Eminem Sets Record, Ozzfest Canceled and Limp Bizket is Back

To save time, here is the latest music news via NME…

– Eminem’s Crack in a Bottle has been out for a while (it seems like it leaked before the new year), but this week it was officially out on iTunes and other downloading sites.  After a week, it’s obvious that Eminem is still immensely popular.  The reason is because Crack in a Bottle broke the single-week downloads record last week by selling 418,000 digital copies.  The track, produced by Dr. Dre and featuring 50 Cent, is still about 40,000 behind breaking the all-time downloads record held by Lady GaGa’s Just Dance, but it should break the record next week.

– After cutting back  to a one-day event in 2008, Ozzfest 2009 has been canceled because of lack of ticket sales.  This seems to be a growing trend, given the economy, and don’t be surprised if a lot of b-list festivals are canceled around the world because of lack of ticket sales, and the festivals having difficulty booking top-flight music acts.  Rolling Stone reports that Ozzfest will be back next year, so that’s good news for heavy metal fans.

Limp Bizket is back, and the world can’t wait.  Not really.  The world can wait for a fourth-rate nu-metal band to sing about the nookie and whatnot.  Limp Bizket, and especially Fred Durst, bore me.
