Eminem has released a new single titled The King & I for the soundtrack to the Baz Luhrmann film Elvis
Lyrics in the track include –
I rolled up like the bottom of a tooth paste tube/ Blue suede shoes, one missin’ a shoe lace too/ Two chains, you can call me 2 Chainz/ Ropes hang like Hussein’s noose/ Yeah, they let the fruitcake loose/ It goes one for the trailer park, two for my baby-ma’s/ Three for the tater tots, four if you ate a lot.’
The rapper also references the topic of cultural appropriation saying, ‘I stole Black music, yeah true/ Perhaps used it as a tool to combat school.’
ELVIS is an epic, big-screen spectacle from Warner Bros. Pictures. The film explores the life and music of Elvis Presley, starring Austin Butler and Oscar winner Tom Hanks. Watch the second trailer released by Warner Bros. Pictures below –
