An old video from Taylor Swift’s tour has resurfaced, surprising the general public but none of these artists’ fans.
A tweet with a poor-quality clip of Taylor Swift singing “Lose Yourself”, taken from a recording of one of early Taylor’s gigs, has gained over 30,000 likes and sparked a discussion. The discussion didn’t prove anything but the fact that Taylor has been paying tribute to Marshall for years now.
The OP introduced the video with a caption:

The quality is indeed shocking. So let us draw your attention to this one, filmed in Van Andel Arena in West Michigan during Taylor’s Speak Now World Tour in July 2011.
You can debate the level of her rapping skills, but she has never claimed to be a rapper. She is just one of the most successful artists in the world, she likes Eminem, and she wouldn’t mind working with him. In her 2013 interview with InStyle, after she admitted to loving hip hop because it is honest, she was immediately confronted with a question if she would collaborate with Eminem. And that’s what she said:
Nobody wants to hear me rap but I’d sing a chorus for someone for sure. I would sign up for that in a heartbeat.
It is yet to happen. Taylor Swift has incredibly few collaborations for an artist of her scale, and it works well for her. Do you regret not having Eminem x Taylor Swift joint?
