Grammy-winning rapper Eminem and Chance The Rapper are going to take over TV in the coming weeks. Both hip-hop stars are set to appear on NBC’s “Saturday Night Live.”

The popular sketch comedy series announced the high-profile news across its Instagram page.

Recently, Shady Records’ Royce Da 5’9 came to Em’s defense over his recent 2017 BET Hip Hop Awards cypher freestyle.

“Why do y’all care who was in the background of the f*cking cypher? Why do y’all care that it was black people in the background of the cypher? What do you think n*ggas? We was casted? You think it’s some type of imaging that was put together by like some f*cking white force? Like Eminem is my f*cking friend, man. He’s been my friend since ’97. I support everything that he does. Just like he supports everything that I do. And I hope you support everything your friends do and they support you. If you don’t, that’s your f*cking problem. But he got up there and used his own platform. What’d you think my black a** was supposed do? Come out the background and grab the mic? ‘Give me this mic white boy, I’m the one that’s supposed to be doing this. I’m the black one.’ It don’t work like that. It’s a thing called protocol that keeps me from doing that. You want to know how I feel about the state of things, go listen to my f*cking albums. And I’m proud to call Em my friend. And if you got a problem with me supporting my friend, you can kiss my a**. Alright?”

A few days ago, rap veteran Redman came to Em’s defense over the politically-driven freestyle.

“He has power and he used his power on that BET cypher to make a statement for us as well as a people, as all of us as a people, but especially for us. Everyone, anyone should respect that man for that because he didn’t have to do it. It’s not even many of us that wouldn’t step out the box and did what he did and took that opportunity to used that platform on the BET cypher to make a motherf*cking statement.” (BET)

Recently, Internet duo Diamond and Silk clapped back at Em’s freestyle.

Vloggers Diamond And Silk issued a scathing response to rapper Eminem after he demanded fans choose between him and President Trump in a prerecorded video played at the BET Awards. Diamond And Silk said in their response that “when you come for President Trump, we are going to come for you.” The pair say in their response video, “Trump’s your president, so get over it.” (Conservative Fighters)
