Jelly Roll recently performed a show in Detroit at Ford Field and home of the Detroit Lions as part of the Big Ass Stadium Tour headlined by Post Malone. As a special treat for the over 45,000 people in attendance, hip-hop icon Eminem took the stage and performed Lose Yourself alongside Jelly Roll.
Jelly Roll began the performance by rapping the first verse himself, indicating to many in the audience that it was simply a tribute to the hometown icon.
However, Eminem joined Jelly Roll on stage for the second verse and they performed the rest of the song together. While on stage, Eminem also took a moment to shout out his daughter and son in law, Hailie and Evan, who were celebrating a major milestone.
"Long time, no see, Detroit. One more time, make some noise for Jelly Roll, y’all. Hailie and Evan, happy anniversary, I love y’all."
