Namely rapping the megahit “Lose Yourself”. – It was a bit special to take over the stage after Eminem, said Obama. He then rapped the lines “palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy.

I had intended to drop out of the running, Obama said afterwards. Many famous faces have backed Harris’ presidential candidacy. Oscar winner Julia Roberts campaigned for her in Georgia earlier this month, artists Lizzo and Taylor Swift have endorsed her, and rock legend Bruce Springsteen is expected to contribute at a rally in Atlanta on Thursday.
