Diplo and Swae Lee to Perform 'Elvis' Soundtrack Cut at the MTV Movie & TV Awards — and Snoop Dogg Will DJ

Released Friday, “Tupelo Shuffle” samples the lateElvis Presley’s 1954 hit “That’s All Right” and features guest vocals fromGary Clark Jr.andAustin Butler, who plays Presley in the film, which will hit theaters on June 24.

The high-energy, drum-led hip-hop track highlights an interesting connection between Diplo, 43, Swae Lee, 28, and Presley, all of whom originally hail from Tupelo, Mississippi, the city after which “Tupelo Shuffle” is named.

“Always come correct / There’s no turnin' back / Takin' bigger steps / That’s all I can do,” sings Swae Lee (born Khalif Malik Ibn Shaman Brown) in the track’s first verse. “That’s all for the moment / If that’s all right with you.”

The latestElvissoundtrack cut followsDoja Cat’s “Vegas,” released last month after the “Say So” musician performed the track, which samples Big Mama Thornton’s original take on the famously Presley-covered “Hound Dog,” at Coachella in April.
