Few would have seen this coming. Eminem and Gwen Stefani have teamed up for “Kings Never Die,” a song lifted from the forthcoming film “Southpaw.”
It’s a muscular effort with a classic angry Eminem vibe, where Stefani handles the chorus and Em provides the grunt.
“Kings Never Die” will feature alongside “Phenomenal” and other cuts on the Shady Records-produced soundtrack for Southpaw, starring Jake Gyllenhaal who plays a boxer looking to rise up again after a tragedy, out July 24.
It’s not the most original or unusual pairing. And it’s hardly a knockout. But it’s absolutely worth a spin.
