What do you get when you mix one of rap's biggest acts with a rocket man? Doritos' latest ad, apparently.
Louisville emcee Jack Harlow got a chance to strut his stuff with Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Elton John for the chip company's latest Super Bowl advertisement, one that asks fans an all-important question: what would happen if our favorite musicians swapped their go-to apparatuses for triangles?
Harlow and John are joined by Missy Elliott, Sway Calloway and Heather B. in the humorous spot, which looks to capitalize on Harlow's burgeoning superstardom and John's ever-present mystique. A match made in cheese-covered heaven.

Harlow reaches a new level of popularity after making the swap, progressing from globe-trotting rapper to otherworldly musician in the blink of an eye. And it's all thanks to a zesty Doritos morsel, the shape of which inspired his change in career.
The 24-year-old's prowess with the metal doesn't go unnoticed. In fact, it is much appreciated, spawning critical acclaim and even award nominations.

However, it's John, known for such classics as "I'm Still Standing" and "Your Song," who draws the greatest applause and washes Harlow to capture the hardware.
We're guessing Harlow will want someone to hold him just a little closer after that burn.
