As the 2011 Grammy Award show rapidly approaches, the show’s schedule is starting to take shape.
Music insiders have just reported that rap music will lead the charge with Dr. Dre and Eminem serving up a dose of ‘Detox’ and kicking-off the program with a rare performance.
We are guessing that ‘I Need a Doctor,’ the ‘Detox’ single that dropped yesterday, will be one of the songs performed in the show’s open.
Credible sources also say that Eminem will also do a solo performance from his wildly successful ‘Recovery’ album.
The opening slot for Dre and Em continues the recent tradition of opening up the Grammys with a huge, culture-spanning duet. Last year’s big moment featured a surprise collaboration between Lady Gaga and Elton John.
The latest rumors place ‘Detox’ for an April 1 release date, yet as usual with Dre, we’ll believe it when we hear it for real.
The 2011 Grammy Awards will air live on CBS on Feb. 13.
