“We’ve had a lot of fun putting this project together with the folks at Union Joints, and the response from fans has been overwhelmingly positive,” Rosenberg said in a statement as quoted by hypebeast.com.
“The previous pop-ups were really a test for us to determine whether there was enthusiasm for a regularly-occurring Mom’s Spaghetti spot that would be open all year long. We are really pleased to announce the arrival of the walk-up restaurant and adjacent upstairs store, called The Trailer, where fans can experience a uniquely-curated environment and obtain merch and other items from Eminem and his new pasta operation,” he added.
“20 years later here we are serving spaghetti that came from a lyric I wrote for the movie. It started out as a joke but it’s become a reality and I’m really excited to be able to bring this concept from Detroit to NYC for the pop-up this month. B-Rabbit would be so proud!,” said Eminem.
About Mom’s Spaghetti
Mom’s Spaghetti is a joint venture of Eminem, his manager Paul Rosenberg, and Union Joints- a Detroit-based restaurant group. What started as a pop-up event in 2017 at The Shelter, Detroit’s iconic club, found its first base in the city itself in September 2021.
For the unversed, Mom’s Spaghetti is a restaurant based in Detroit. Its name is inspired by Eminem’s iconic single “Lose Yourself”. The song was written for his movie “8 Mile” which released on November 8, 2002. 8 Mile is a story about Eminem’s early days as a struggling artist in Detroit. The song sold over 10 million copies and Eminem earned two Grammys in 2004 along with an Oscar.
