You might say Eminem got his start in the music biz thanks to Korn. The rapper was an extra in the band's 1998 video for “Got the Life” and he managed to get his demo to Korn guitarist Munky. Munky told Loudwire.com, “There were some extras on the set of our video ‘Got the Life.’ Some kid came up to me and gave me his demo. I was really drunk and I was like (out of it). He’s like, ‘Hey, check it out, I’m a rapper.’ I’m like, ‘I’m just a guitar player.’ It turned out that kid that was on our video was Eminem. He was an extra in that video. I vaguely remember that happening.”
Korn guitarist Head joked, “Thanks a lot, man. Would could’ve been billionaires. We could’ve signed him before Dre.”
The “Got The Life” video also features cameos by Fred Durst, Wes Borland and Sam Rivers of Limp Bizkit, Orgy‘s Jay Gordon, rapper WC and former UFC fighter Tito Ortiz.
