It will be interesting to have an English-Turkish collaboration song recorded by Eminem and Tarkan. Aside from their passion for music, the two have one more thing in common; they were both born on Oct. 17, 1972.
With an Academy Award and 15 Grammy Awards, Eminem is one of the best rappers of all time. He was born in St. Joseph, Missouri, and spent most of his youth in Detroit, Michigan.
Born in West Germany and raised in Turkey, Tarkan is one of the few European singers who do not sing in English but have managed to span chart success over three continents. He was awarded Best Selling Middle Eastern Artist at the 1999 World Music Awards in Monaco.
Aside from having the same age and the same passion for music, Eminem and Tarkan are both phenomenal. Watch the music video of Eminem's song "Phenomenal" from the soundtrack of "Southpaw" here:
