The political world and the music world collided in an unexpected moment of grief this week, following the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk, the conservative activist and founder of Turning Point USA, who was fatally shot during his American Comeback Tour event at Utah Valley University. Kirk, 31, leaves behind his wife, Erika Frantzve, and their two young daughters.
While tributes have poured in from political allies and adversaries alike, one message in particular has stunned fans worldwide: Eminem, the Detroit rapper long known for his outspoken criticism of Donald Trump and the MAGA movement, publicly sent his condolences to Kirk’s family.
