Eminem Trains as a Musician and an Athlete in "Higher" Music Video
Featuring guest appearances from Dana White and ESPN’s Michael Eaves.
Eminem has shared an accompanying music video for his Music To Be Murdered By — Side B (Deluxe) cut, “Higher.”
The new visual sees Slim Shady training as both a musician and a world-class athlete to show the similarities of the two professions — how a musician creates art and prepares to perform and how an athlete trains and prepares for a competition. At the end of the day, however, both versions of Eminem will need to go head-to-head with his biggest enemy: his own demons.
Dana White and ESPN‘s Michael Eaves make guest appearances in the music video, along with clips from ESPN’s UFC coverage. “It’s always been amazing to be able to work with Eminem for promotional and programming content on various ESPN properties over the years,” Kevin Wilson, ESPN music director, said in a statement. “To be able to work on this video together with his team – not only featuring our team’s great UFC coverage but also debuting it exclusively on ABC, is just invaluable.”
