Foster the People create ‘Battle of the Houdinis’ mash-up featuring Eminem and Dua Lipa

“Alright, so there’s like two ‘Houdini’s on the radio right now, one from Eminem, one from Dua Lipa. Thought it’d be fun to bring in our OG ‘Houdini’ from our first record and, you know, mash the three of them up together,” he said in a video posted to the band's Instagram account.

Foster The People's "Houdini" featured on their 2011 debut album, Torches, whilst Dua Lipa released hers last year as the lead single from her Radical Optimism. Eminem, on the other hand, dropped his earlier this year as a taster of his forthcoming album The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce).
