The Marshall Mathers LP 2

The buzz: Eminem's eighth album in 17 years references his 2000 tour de force, The Marshall Mathers LP, which sold 10.6 million copies, 1.76 million its first week alone. History's best-selling rapper is unlikely to match those numbers in the piracy age, still, he's rekindling the flame with two singles, old-school Berzerk (with Beastie Boys samples) and guitar-blazed Survival, unveiled in a trailer for video game Call of Duty: Ghosts. Rick Rubin and Dr. Dre are executive producers, and guests include fun.'s Nate Ruess on Headlights, Kendrick Lamar on Love Game and Skyler Grey on A--hole.

The back story: Nobody sold more records in the first decade of the 21st century than Eminem, a critical and commercial titan embraced by every stripe of hip-hop fan. Can he sustain his reign? In 2009, Relapse arrived to underwhelming sales and reviews, but Em rebounded in 2010 with Recovery, which bowed at No. 1 with first-week sales of 741,000 copies and went on to sell 4.5 million copies. Casting MMLP2 as a sequel to the landmark that produced Stan and The Real Slim Shady may seem cocky, but the rapper is packing ammo like The Monster with Rihanna, his duet partner on 2010's Love the Way You Lie, Eminem's biggest hit to date. Closing six minutes of rap-fire rhymes on the career-chronicling Rap God, he recognizes the challenge that "even you unsigned rappers are hungry, looking at me like it's lunchtime." — Edna Gundersen

So is this his official second single? Or another promo track?

MMLP2

[EllenPage-Mathers]

So it did the same as a single?

[DarrenEminem]

i hope this song will not be some LTYL thing, but him actually fighting against drugs=the monster, since its dark as the original singer said

[Hopsinshadie]

Well if it's not like LTWYL, it will still probably be like Part 2, the more hardcore version. It definitely will be a love song.

So does the song come out at Midnight?

[Hopsinshadie]

No way would Em make another single with Rihanna about dysfunctional relationships. He's never repeating himself - Guilty Conscience, Role Model, The Way I Am, Stan, Cleanin Out My Closet, SFTM, LTS, Mosh, 3am, Beautiful, LTWYL, No Love... his second and third singles were never anything like those from his previous albums.

Trust me it will be like LTWYL Part 2. remember ''My Mom''? Same type of song, different angle

[makjack]

How much longer till this drops?

[Kill You]

Won't be anything like LTWYL, wow. The song is dealing with THE MONSTERS INSIDE OF US, it's not a fucking love song lmao.

So, we're really gonna get this before the leak...when is it supposed to premiere tomorrow? This will tide me over until the leak, I wish it would be released midnight tonight but I see it coming late tomorrow.
