Kid Rock wanted to showcase more than a fellow Detroit native on a track guest starring Eminem from a forthcoming Christian rock album. On October 1st, Kid Rock shared the tracklist for his album Halfway to Jesus, revealing that the real Slim Shady will be featured on the song “7 Sins.” While the two have collaborated in the past, the pairing has new context. Kid Rock, a vocal political conservative who has supported Donald Trump, is standing with Eminem, who has no love for the current president and eviscerated him in a 2017 rap on the BET Hip Hop awards.
Kid Rock’s intent in having Eminem was to show friendship can triumph over political differences, according to a report by Complex, which obtained part of the upcoming album’s foreword explaining the collaboration. “I’m proud of the guests who joined me, especially my old friend Eminem,” Kid Rock wrote. “His verse speaks to something we’ve talked about and that really needs to be heard: we differ politically and on other things, but we’ve stayed friends through it all . . . We hope that sets an example for people who’ve lost friends or stopped talking to family because they think differently.”
Previous Collaborations
The pair’s friendship has been put on wax before. Eminem was featured on Kid Rock’s song “Fuck Off” from 1998’s Devil Without a Cause, while Kid Rock appeared in the video for Marshall Mathers’ “Berzerk” in 2013.
Kid Rock has released the first single, “James 1:17 (Jesus is King),” from Halfway to Jesus ahead of its October 17th release date.

In conclusion, Kid Rock and Eminem’s collaboration on “7 Sins” is a significant moment in music, as it shows that despite their differences, they can come together and create something meaningful. The release of Halfway to Jesus is highly anticipated, and fans are eager to hear the new music from Kid Rock, including the track featuring Eminem.
