For the Amy Schumer-hosted episode of Saturday Night Live, rising artist The Weeknd obliged as the show's musical guest, ready to reveal a total of three surprises for his SNL appearance. Before Abel Tesfaye stepped foot on stage, he unveiled two Beauty Behind the Madness remix tracks for his smash hit "The Hills"--one boasting the rapping talents of Eminem and the other, Nicki Minaj. The Pinkprint singer then surprisingly showed up onstage to assist the Weeknd on the latest take of Billboard Hot 100's current number one track.
"Remember that time I showed up with just panties up in my coat / High heels that was knee high and my legs was gripping that throat / You told me this and I quote / 'Cause we popped pills and you smoked / You said 'Your stuff got me strung out, it's like doing lines of some coke," Minaj raps in her alluring verse, following the drug-ridden message of the Weeknd's "The Hills" and "Can't Feel My Face." "You the president and I'm Biden / Just slide in 'cause you're safe / Baby, third base," the verse concludes.
As the episode progressed, the Weeknd hit the stage once more, this time lacking Minaj, for a vigorous rendition of his other fan-favorite Beauty Behind the Madness hit, "Can't Feel My Face" and to show up for the Weeknd Update, Pitchfork reports. The track currently holds the slot for Number Four on the Hot 100 even though it made its debut in June at the Apple Music launch.
The Eminem and Minaj remixes were dropped on iTunes Saturday night as The Hills Remixes, Rolling Stone notes. On the Detroit rapper's rendition, Eminem spits two feisty verses ahead of the original track that centers on sex tapes, drugs and unfaithful women. "But it's time you met the real me / Filthy but wasn't always / Will be your pill refill / Feeling I'll still be your addiction / You can touch a prescription but don't fill me," Eminem raps on the track. "But tonight we don't need those pills / Just the effects of each other / But we gonna film cause we want your ex to see."
