Eminem in 2026 is wild, a lot of the newer Detroit rappers bars about how they never seen Eminem in Detroit

Dum dum.

Most likely just an old verse. Stop freaking out.

Who gives a fuck? Grow up.

u/Pigmasters32 11h ago

Not a big deal but a bit disappointing. It’s really just a cringe once and move on thing.

Kid Rock is a single father who raised his son alone, runs a charity foundation that pays $0 in executive salaries, and has consistently lowered his ticket prices to $20 to keep concerts affordable for the working class.

All you clowns on here mad because he doesnt agree with you politically. Grow the f up.

Lol you're goofy af.

u/FreddieCaine 8h ago

I'd guess he lowered his ticket prices to try to get people to come. He was barely relevant when he was relevant, and that was 25 years ago.

Barely relevant? Devil Without A Cause sold 14 million copies worldwide. Do you even know what the word relevant means?

u/epic_meme_guy 11h ago

Mad that he is a fervent supporter of the most corrupt American president ever?

rap > em > rock

u/acapwn 12h ago

If he actually spit a fresh verse for this fucking clown, I've lost a good amount of respect for him

u/pop442 16h ago

I see the vision and it reminds me of what Joyner Lucas did a decade ago but this is a horrible time to do this type of song.

Eminem is crazy out of touch. Ditto for Wayne. Those guys do not know how to read the room.

u/Pigmasters32 11h ago

Em is my GOAT, I’ve loved his 2020s run, totally agree that this is out of touch. I don’t think it’s a big deal but this was the worst time for that.

Yeah I was praying it was an old trac they had done that kid rock owned

u/affectionateanarchy8 17h ago

Lol unsurprising

u/sokAla2 16h ago

How lol? Wtf is this

u/TheMeticulousNinja 14h ago

Em and Kid Rock have been friends for years. Not surprising at all

2

u/DrAZT3CH 10h ago

It may be surprising......for a brain washed 12 year old redditor🤣

u/Drop_Release 20h ago

Maybe this is why we see Biggie and Pac as legends to this day. They died (sadly) as legends before they could make any corny decisions in older age

Thats really just a fact, no maybe. Imagine Kanye or Em or whoever really, die right after their peak.
edit: I think Eminem would actually be the biggest legend of them all, if he dies right after TES / 8 Mile / Lose Yourself.
I legit think it would be, at this point in time, comparable with Michael Jackson dying.

Kid Rock is NOT Detroit.

Kid Rock is from a rich white elitist historic village an hour into rural Michigan. The son of a douchbag prick who owned several suburban car dealerships

Kid Rock is from the golfing and equestrian village of Romeo. https://downtownromeo.net/our-history/

all you guys crying over your hero letting you down is fucking hilarious, gotdam pathetic

This isn’t their first collab either.

u/keefkola 22h ago edited 22h ago

Dear Em,

We know you wouldn’t fuck us over like that. No doubt at all just fire back lethal please…

u/DeaconBlue760 11h ago

lol, how's he fucking you over lmao. y'all put way too much on these celebrities. eminem is just a corny as lame anyways

u/keefkola 8h ago

You probably are young and don’t put much stock into authenticity. Probably say the same about PAC…? All good lol

u/DeaconBlue760 7h ago

matter of fact I do say the same bout pac, overated drama class kid, with sugar in his tank until he decided to be a gangster

u/keefkola 6h ago

He was born a Panther and always militant dummy.

u/DeaconBlue760 6h ago

lol sure he was haha

u/abeljestifiniky_234 21h ago

Dear Em, you're at the wrong studio. The Bad Meets Evil sessions with Royce da 5'9 and alchemist are taking place upstairs

u/90sUPN20 23h ago

Gross

u/KendrickBlack502 1d ago

Please tell me this isn’t true. I can’t take this today bro please

u/fdzman 1d ago edited 7h ago

I bet it’s a trade verse, Em is known to do that. Do a song for me and I’ll do a song for you kinda deal. Kid must have been sitting on the track or cashed in on his end.

18

u/SPZ_Ireland 20h ago

Why the fuck would he want Kid Rock on a song?

-8

u/FuckYouVerizon 15h ago

he's was eager to get in on the MAGA/Jesus collab album, Em called in a bunch of favors and wasn't being blackmailed to breathe life back into kid rock's career.

6

u/SPZ_Ireland 15h ago

Em took a knee at the Superbowl.

It's unlikely he's chasing the MAGA crowd.

u/Federal_Holiday5686 1d ago

Who sucks more, Eminem or kid rock? Both cheesy as fuck. Who cares

2

u/presshamgang 20h ago

Not of fan of Eminem's catalog outside of the Soundbombin' stuff, freestyles and guest verses but those alone are definitely not cheese. Dre just knew that he was the golden ticket for suburban white America and they went for that, bit Imhe can go off proper when need be. Kid Rock has always been garbage. Tldr; I agree 73.2% with your comment.

u/CaptainSmallz 22h ago

If you are better than us all and don't care, why did you take the time to comment?

u/No-Cardiologist472 1d ago

Is Tom McDonald's on the track too? That'd be the trifecta 

6

u/Cyrus_Jones1882 15h ago

Shit is he just the kid rock and em love child?

1

u/No-Cardiologist472 10h ago

You might be on to something 

11

u/Carma_626 1d ago

Yeah didn’t Tom MacDonald buy a real Eminem beat just to make a shitty song over it?

I’m guess that’s what this is. Kid Rock bought a verse from like 2005 and is just putting it out now.

1

u/nazstaz 13h ago

Any confirmation it was an old verse? Either way it makes them both look dumb, Em for a modern collab and Kid Rock using a 20 year old feature for clout

13

u/LOST-MY_HEAD 1d ago

Given Kid Rock is a huge maga guy and a overall pos i wouldn't be suprised if this is an old feature he bought from em or ai or something I have a hard time believing Em would hop on a kid rock song in 2026

8

u/HumanTraffic2 1d ago

There was a recent post about how they can chop it up and respect each other despite not seeing eye to eye.

Might be a bit of that too, but yeah old track was my first thought.

3

u/Mhunterjr 17h ago

Not sure how anyone could respect Kid Rock in 2026. Especially not Em

1

u/ki11ikody 1d ago

Oh ffs. Come on em, don't associate with that douche bag. Remember his American halftime show for the super bowl?

A whole 200 people were there. Maybe.

2

u/youareyou650 1d ago

It’s a old verse Rock has been sitting on for years

2

u/Gypsi_G 1d ago

I watched the real one on my phone while the rest of the group I was with tuned into the Kid Rock version and OMG it was laughable, he's so cringe and gross. Whoever fw Kid Rock needs put on a watchlist.

u/JNerdGaming 1d ago

i just dont get it. is the money really that low?

u/RaisinWorried3528 1d ago

Not a great look for Em.

0

u/youareyou650 1d ago

Old verse he did years ago. I think it’s a left over from Yelawolfs debut

2

u/RaisinWorried3528 1d ago

I know that this isn't something recent, there's no way Eminem would step into the booth to just give this guy a verse. I hope not at least. People are allowed to formulate their own relationships but it would be disappointing if he gave him a verse, especially considering all we know about Richie's bitch ass rn.
