Unseen “Caterpillar” BTS Footage Shows Eminem & Royce 5’9 in Action

A rare look at the making of “Caterpillar” gives fans a glimpse of Eminem and Royce 5’9 working on a banger.

This behind-the-scenes footage from the “Caterpillar” music video set is a treat for any Eminem and Royce 5’9 fan. The handheld clip offers a glimpse of the video shoot for the 2018 track, featuring Eminem and King Green, from Royce’s “Book of Ryan” album.

Directed by James Larese and released on May 3, 2018, “Caterpillar” is widely praised for its gritty, minimalist aesthetic that doesn’t take focus from the song’s raw lyricism. The newly surfaced footage shows Royce and Eminem trading lines against a green screen, both separately and together, bringing their verses to life with precision and intensity.

This is not the longest BTS video, but just watching their delivery, expressions, and movement is enough to remind fans why the track and video hit so hard.
