Let’s look at the facts:
– In 2010, Eminem and Rihanna went to No. 1 for seven weeks straight with ‘Love The Way You Lie’.
– Eminem returned the favour by appearing on ‘Love The Way You Lie (Part II)’, on Rihanna’s “Loud” album.
– Mr Mathers also featured on Rihanna’s album “Unapologetic”, on the 2012 single ‘Numb’.
Eminem and Rihanna have shown time and time again that when they both hit the studio together, they are a force to be reckoned with. Their collaborative efforts are just faultless.
Em gets personal on the track, facing down his demons once again while Rihanna pulls it all together with an epic chorus.
Not quite sure about the random yodelling throughout the song but the rest of the track works.
What do you think?
‘The Monster’ is the fourth track to be lifted from his upcoming album “The Marshall Mathers LP 2”, which is due for official release this week on November 5.
