We just hit you with our June/July issue (featuring Rick Ross & Andy Samberg / Rosie Huntington-Whitely), but it's never too soon for another innovative Complex cover, right? This week we've got a whole lineup of killer Bad Meets Evil content on deck (The long-awaited Hell: The Sequel hits stores Tuesday), and we knew we had to do something different when both Eminem and Royce Da 5'9" agreed to do a special cover shoot for our week of web exclusives. That's right, it's Compex's first-ever animated cover, built for your browser (and yes, the image was inspired by the classic Bugs Bunny vs. Daffy Duck cartoon). The animated GIF theme continues throughout our cover story (link below), where editor-in-chief Noah Callahan-Bever takes us back to the summer of 1998, when he watched Em and Royce create their classic single. Check back all week for more exclusives on the Detroit duo.
