As the much-awaited Election day has arrived in the United States, both US President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden have officially ended their campaigns involving popular rappers. While the Republican leader was joined by rapper Lil Pump on stage in the final rally in Michigan in support, Eminem endorsed Biden with ‘Lose yourself’ campaign. This year celebrities have actively campaigned for their desired candidate to acquire the White House for four years including Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga among others who are rooting for Biden and Kamala Harris administration. 

Rapper Lil Pump joined the US President briefly on stage at the final rally in Michigan. "MAGA [Make America Great Again] 20,20,20 don't forget that!" the rapper with real name Gazzy Garcia told the cheering crowd. Trump introduced the rapper by calling him 'Little Pimp'.

What internet users are calling "legendary" closing of an incredible campaign by Joe Biden is his team using rapper Eminem's iconic song 'Lose Yourself' for the new ad. A video posted in black and white follows a similar direction to that of the original video released in 2002. It also features the greatest, most popular lyrics of the song --

"You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
."
