Eminem, Audi reach agreement

Berlin – Rapper Eminem has reached a financial agreement with German automobile company Audi after the company used his song Lose Yourself in one of their advertisements, reports the Daily Voice.

The hip hop star and his production company sued Audi in June after they used the same song that Chrysler used in their "Imported form Detroit" campaign to promote the new Chrysler 200.

Eminem however gave permission to Chrysler to use the track.

Eminem also claims that the new Audi advertisement uses almost exactly the same visual material as Chrysler.

In Chrysler's version, Eminem is seen driving past familiar spots in Detroit, while the car in Audi's ad can be seen driving past famous locations in Berlin.
