Eminem kept it all business opening up for Barack Obama at a Kamala Harris event in Michigan ... but Barack Obama was so loose, he started rapping a famous Em song.

Transcript

00:00Barack Obama was in Detroit last night for a Kamala Harris rally.

00:05She was not there, but he was there, you know, getting the vote out.

00:09He was introduced, as we told you, everyone expected this, that Eminem was going to introduce

00:13him.

00:14And I have to say, when they announced that Eminem was going to do this, I felt like this

00:18is going to be awkward to have Eminem talking about politics, and it's like, it's just not

00:22his place.

00:23But it wasn't awkward.

00:25It wasn't awkward.

00:26We're going to show you.

00:27Here's what Eminem said.

00:28It actually totally made sense.

00:32I think the awkward part came later, but first, here's what Eminem said.

00:35The city of Detroit and the whole state of Michigan mean a lot to me.

00:43Going into this election, the spotlight is on us more than ever, and I think it's important

00:47to use your voice.

00:49So I'm encouraging everybody to get out and vote, please.

00:52I don't think anyone wants an America where people are worried about retribution or what

00:56people will do if you make your opinion known.

01:02I think Vice President Harris supports a future for this country where these freedoms and

01:06many others will be protected and upheld.

01:13And here to tell you much more about that, President Barack Obama.

01:19Kept it pretty straightforward.

01:21It was like a minute.

01:22It was like a minute.

01:23And he told you why he was there, and it totally made sense.

01:26So he didn't really get into too much policy.

01:28Okay, so now we're going to disagree, because I think the next part is awesome.

01:31And I feel like it's a little awkward, but here's how Barack Obama opened his remarks.

01:37So I don't usually get nervous, but I was feeling some kind of way following Eminem.

01:49Now notice, my palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy, vomit on my sweater are ready,

01:58mom's spaghetti.

01:59I'm nervous, but on the surface I look calm and ready to drop bombs, but I keep bomb spaghetti.

02:07Oh gosh.

02:08I just, I love that.

02:10I love that.

02:12He can pull it off.

02:13What you love is that he knows the lyrics, and that's cool.

02:16I agree that that's cool.

02:17It's authentic.

02:18It's authentic.

02:19It didn't feel authentic.

02:20Do you remember when he sang an Al Green song?

02:23It was, yes.

02:24And that was awesome too.

02:26It's him.

02:27It's him.

02:28But that's closer to him, singing an Al Green song.

02:30Why is that not closer to him?

02:31Because he's closer to Al Green.

02:33He can pull that off.

02:35He's not a rapper.

02:36There's a cut off.

02:37He's not a rapper.

02:38He pulled that off.

02:39And like the affectation in some of the words, just, I don't know.

02:42I loved it.

02:43I'm a fan of his, but I just felt like that was.

02:46I just loved it.

02:47It felt forced.

02:49It's not forced.

02:50Okay.

02:51It's a little theatrical.

02:52I get it.

02:53Okay.

02:54It's a little theatrical.

02:55But my God, come on.

02:56Hi.

02:57I'm Tiffany from St. Louis.

02:58I'm ready for the mixtape.

02:59I love.

03:00Yes.

03:01Obama, absolutely.

03:02I'm impressed that he knew the words, and quite frankly, Kamala and Obama need to absolutely

03:12collab with Eminem and every debate needs to be a rap battle from this point on or I'm

03:17not watching.

03:18Mic drop.

03:19You know what I want to know?

03:20Because when we go to the shot of Obama, you can see, I want to know, were the lyrics in

03:26the teleprompter?

03:27No, he knew it.

03:28Were the lyrics in the teleprompter?

03:29He knew it.

03:30We need an investigation right now.

03:31He knew it.

03:32I want to know.

03:33I'm sorry.

03:34Those lyrics were in the teleprompter.
