Irony is "the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect."

In this case, Eminem simply predicted incorrectly. He was not intentionally trying to be wrong for effect, and his being wrong was the happenstance of fate. He could not have known he would be wrong, at least not definitively, at the time.
