Will Survival be in the album or not?

[Trimss]

It is already confirmed for the album! Why can't people get this through their heads?!

Because it is not on the album. Em made like 6 different version's of this song for COD. It was made to fit the COD game. Yes there is an original version obviously but it's for the same thing SIH was for, a pre-album hype up. When Paul and COD big guys were in talks about getting a song, Paul and Em picked this one because of the lyrics. If Survival is NOTHING campared to whats coming, why the fuck would they put it on the album if they know it's not up to the standards of the album? Where ever I read it yesterday, Eminem wanted to make it clear it was not on the album.

First things first: this is not Eminem’s new single. Produced by DJ Khalil, the track will appear on Em’s upcoming album and is a part of the Call of Duty: Ghosts game. The title will be available on Xbox, Playstation, and Wii U consoles on November 5th. Check out the trailer after the jump.

Just because Rap Radar say's, doesn't mean it is. They are not part of Em's camp. Why would they release a full version of this song then say it's not the first single? It clearly is the first single then if it is on the album regardless if they want this to be considered the first single or not. It's not the single Em wants to represent the album, but IT IS the first single he has released so far....for a video game.

When Em introduced it, he said "My new song" or something along those lines, if it was from the album, he would have included "My new song.....from my new album"...but then it would mean it was the first single. He can't have 2 first singles.

I'm 99% sure the closest we will get to it being on the album is possibly a bonus song. He's not going to let a game premier his first single.

Actually, they are. Paul Rosenberg is co-owner of the site. Everything premiers there, like the BME album announcement or even Fast Lane.

Do you know the difference between a song and a single?

Hmm, well then I'll just shut up. I didn't know Paul was co-owner, my bad.

Yes I do know the difference between a song and a single, I just didnt think that because this album is being kept so secretive that they would put out a song from it without it being the first single.

They did the same with Black Ops and Won't Back Down to, so I guess it's very possible.

....IDK, I guess I'm wrong but I'm on the fence till we get the official tracklist.

[Trimss]

Nobody is really sure, that's why there's so many speculation around it but I tend to believe Rapradar as Paul is co-founder of it and he's in touch with Eliott Wilson so yeah. We'll see.

Maybe it will be a bonus track, you never know. But Rapradar was informed enough to know it wasn't a single at first so I guess Paul told them it was just a track on the album.

Holy shit, it's on the album, fucking get over it already. He just wanted to release a track for his fans to tide them over. And for CoD, but he could have waited for that. No, I think he just decided to drop a song from the album.

[Shuttle Destroyer]

There's no reason on keeping it off the album
It might not make the regular tracklist because of it being released early and maybe concept reasons
If that's the case, then it's on the deluxe for sure

[EminemBase]

I hope it's not.

Top-tier rapping, but generic music and... if that's the album's sound... dam.

[Trimss]

maybe the original version is darker and that one is on the album

It can't be. he edited it five times to make it fit the game (see this thread: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=162811/) also the emphases of it not being the single, makes me think that, it's like he doesn't want people to use it as a judgment of his upcoming work.

I hate to say it, but this song is just a part of a business deal.

[EminemBase]

^ Well, I don't give a shit about his business deals anymore, I just don't want it on the album.

[JAGODA]

I won't believe that this one is on the album until I see it on the tracklist, tbh.

I thought this could be a possibility. Though it could still be a dark album and have Survival on it at the same time, it's not likely. Maybe it'll either be a different version or a bonus. Now I'm sorta hoping a bonus track.
