It seems like all music genres are dipping their toes in country music these days, including a big surprise: Eminem. Just recently, the legendary rapper sampled Jelly Roll's hit single "Save Me" on the last track of his new album The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce). Jelly Roll was unsurprisingly stunned that his "childhood hero" used his chorus. "I can’t believe I’m on Eminem’s album," wrote the "Halfway to Hell" singer on X (formerly Twitter) following the new release.
This unexpected collaboration has sparked excitement not just among the artists but also in their fan bases. Some excited fans of the "Need a Favor" singer weighed in on the collaboration. "It was great man! Hope you guys perform the song live together," commented one user. Another fan added, "It’s Amazing, I love your voice and it’s a perfect fit with Eminem. Congratulations!" This showcases how music transcends genres, bringing different audiences together.
Jelly Roll shared a picture with the controversial rapper, documenting his excitement. One notable quote from the post was the country star's opening line: "I always say my childhood hero’s lived somewhere between Willie Nelson and Eminem." This statement reflects the unique blend of influences that shape Jelly Roll's music and highlights the growing crossover between country and rap. Fans of the "I am Not Okay" singer also expressed their enthusiasm, saying, "This song was so intense that it gave me goosebumps!"
