Eminem and CeeLo Green collaborated on a new song for Baz Luhrmann’s next Elvis film.

For Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis Presley movie, Elvis, Eminem hinted an impending collaboration with CeeLo Green. In a tweet on Monday, the iconic rapper revealed a taste of the single.

Austin Butler plays Elvis Presley as he arrives at a performance while Eminem and Green’s duet plays in the background. The song’s title is revealed at the end of the video: “The King and I.”

Eminem and Green have collaborated on multiple occasions throughout the years. Green was featured on Em’s Slaughterhouse single “My Life” in 2012.

Green has also said that he wanted Em to appear on a Goodie Mob single called “White Power,” but it never worked out.

“It had gotten out to the press and I just thought that it made a bold statement so I thought that Eminem would easily jump at the controversy being that I heard he had been gearing up to do a new record and getting ready to get back out and fight,” Green explained to MTV’s RapFix Live at the time.

“I was just as a fan, really anticipating what he could do it. I don’t know for whatever reason we weren’t able to do it. I would’ve really liked to see it happen, but it did make the record though.”

Elvis is scheduled to hit theaters on June 24.
