Chrissy Teigen Raps Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” In Funny Throwback Clip

Honk Magazine FD IMG 1

Chrissy Teigen is always one for a hilarious antic or two. The model wife of singer John Legend has essentially made a second career out of her social media presence.

One thing we’ve learned over the course of Chrissy Teigen’s social media antics is that she loves to troll her husband, John Legend. We’ve seen it happen before, and now, we’re seeing it happen again albeit in a blast-from-the-past type of way.

Teigen uploaded an old video clip of herself and Legend that was filmed right before the singer’s 2018 Jesus Christ Superstar performance. In the clip, Teigen can be seen encouraging Legend before quickly spiraling into an off-the-cuff performance of Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” where she’s really just yelling the lyrics at Legend’s face. It’s hilarious enough by itself, but it’s Chrissy caption that really brings thing up a level, and once more prove Teigen’s social media trolling savviness. She writes:

“a lot of people don’t know this but before this all started I was well on my way to discovering my talent for quickly-spoken words aka “rap” music. what was merely a source of entertainment for me growing up became more than just something I could listen to others do. I needed to spit for myself. The first time I got in the studio, my fingers and voice shook like a dog straight out of the bath, a sputtering car engine in a cold winter’s night. But I knew once I passed that moment of fear, the anxiety would turn into lyrics so poignant and beautiful that the world needed to hear. I used my new gift in every which way I could, sharing the sweet sounds and effortlessness even with a baby growing inside me. It was almost like the baby was lending me it’s small talent for rap as well – I was even better than before. Here is me (song written by me) performing for john before his role as Jesus Christ in Jesus Christ Superstar – a role that eventually lead to him getting the EGOT. there were no limits to what I was capable of. Maybe one day when this is all over we will meet again”

Smartzee rises strong with new single “Back Down”

Smartzee

Smartzee’s latest single, “Back Down,” is a chest-thumping statement of survival wrapped in powerful emotion and a cutting perspective. “Back Down” grabs you with energy that might have been, you are left with the feeling, forged in fire. The production is aggressive from the get-go, leaving no doubt that this is not a song that will tiptoe around emotions.

Smartzee is a throwback to the mentality of a part beaten-down kid from the hard-knock existence of growing up in a challenging backdrop, part sharp-suited financier fighting his way through the business labyrinth. His comparisons between his life and an athlete looking down the barrel of the final buzzer are startling, beautiful, and achingly true.

There’s a bracing, upfrontness about the way Smartzee recounts his story. This is about survival. His lyrics reach into the fragile but relentless inner monologue that compels us to keep going when everything else tells us to stop. The voice in your head gets up, dusts itself off, and challenges life to take another swing. And that voice reminds one so much of Smartzee on this track. The delivery is raw, spare, and powerful, and it never falls into melodrama. Every bar feels lived-in, and every metaphor is earned. This is a confident, chest-out statement of intent to keep climbing, however steep the mountain.

“Back Down” is one of those songs you put on when you have a big decision to make, are having a tough day, or are going on a long night of chasing dreams. It’s a personal confession and a universal anthem for anyone who’s ever felt underestimated. On “Back Down,” Smartzee encourages us to lace up, buckle up, and walk down that same path with him.
