Justin Bieber surprised fans during a recent Twitch livestream with the cover “Forgot About Dre,” the iconic 1999 collab between Dr. Dre and Eminem. Broadcasting from his warehouse rehearsal space, the 31-year-old singer delivered an unexpected hip-hop moment as he prepares for his upcoming headlining performance at Coachella in 2026.
Justin rapped some of Eminem’s lyrics, and managed to keep up with the pace of the song, which peaked at number 25 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts in March.
Facing the camera, Justin rapped: “So what do you say to somebody you hate/ Or anyone tryna bring trouble your way? One day I was walking by/with a Walkman on, and I caught a guy/ Gave me an awkward eye/ Strangled him up in the parking lot.”
In 2022, Dr. Dre and Eminem – whose real names are Andre Young, 60, and Marshall Mathers III, 53, respectively – reunited to perform Forgot About Dre at the Super Bowl Halftime Show performance.
