I read about this the other day. I was kind of sad - I really like Eminem and his music is amazing, but I would love to have seen what Weird Al could have done. He is very talented IMO. At least we will get to hear the track anyway as it is going to be his first single.

REally? I didnt read the whole article you put up - I read another one in the middle of last week. I will have to go back and give it a read. That’s really to bad if it’s true - but either way we will get to hear it, it’s going to be on the album so…

I would really love to see that video though… too bad ☹

“The only reason I could glean was that making a Weird Al music video would detract from his legacy as a serious hip-hop artist,” Yankovic said Thursday.

Lame excuse if you ask me!! :sigh:
