Fox News
GOP hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy told MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell he will no longer perform "Lose Yourself" on the campaign trail after Eminem sent his campaign a cease-and-desist letter.
"I think that I’ll respect his wishes, but I would just say: Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?" Ramaswamy responded with a quip referring to another hit Eminem song. Joseph A.

"Eminem in his rise used to be a guy who actually stood up to the establishment and said the things that the establishment didn't want him to say. I think the fact that my political viewpoints may differ from his — I think people change over the course of their lives, but I have hope for him that he will one day rediscover the renegade that made him great, and I'm rooting for that success in his life," he added.
