Eminem Lends El-Sayed 'Not Afraid' for Election Day Campaign Ad

The rapper’s 2010 hit underscores El-Sayed’s final campaign push as he urges Michigan voters to show what is possible.

  • Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed released a campaign video featuring Eminem's 2010 hit 'Not Afraid' on Election Day, winning the race on Nov 4, confirmed by The Associated Press.
  • Eminem's team denied direct contact with the campaign, clarifying that the music usage did not amount to a personal endorsement of El-Sayed.
  • The 1-minute, 18-second ad paired campaign footage with lyrics from 'Not Afraid,' including visuals of President Donald Trump over the line 'all those who look down on me.'
  • El-Sayed defeated Republican Mike Rogers in a close competition for the Senate seat vacated by Democrat Gary Peters, with victory confirmed on Nov 4.
  • Recently collaborating with Kid Rock, an outspoken critic of El-Sayed, Eminem stated the partnership focused on friendship rather than choosing political sides.
