The latest: Eminem, 49, on Thursday released a new single titled The King & I in a collaboration for the soundtrack to the Baz Luhrmann film Elvis. The rapper was snapped performing at the Super Bowl in LA this past February
The song was previously played during red carpet entrances at the Cannes Film Festival, Billboard reported.
The Grammy-winning rapper in the track also references the topic of cultural appropriation both he and Presley faced, saying, ‘I stole Black music, yeah true/ Perhaps used it as a tool to combat school.’
Eminem also draws parallels between himself and Presley in the last verse of the track: ‘Between Elvis and me, myself/ It seems obvious: one, he’s pale as me/ Second, we both been hailed as kings/ He used to rock the Jailhouse, and I used to rock The Shelter.’
