The Monster ft. Rihanna
Ever since 2010’s “Love The Way You Lie,” Eminem and Rihanna have formed an unexpected bond that’s found the two artists collaborating multiple times throughout the years since. The main reason of course is for crossover appeal, which so far has garnered the pair chart topping success. The duo are ready to test the waters again, with their latest single, “The Monster,” dropping just in time for Halloween.
Despite its title, the track doesn’t really strike fear in our hearts, striving for more emotional appeal as Em details some of the demons he’s had to deal with since becoming famous. While the song will definitely thrive on the radio, it leaves a little to be desired lyrically. If you’re feeling this new joint from Eminem and Rihanna, you’ll be able to download it from iTunes tonight at midnight. In the meantime, make sure to grab your pre-orders for The Marshall Mathers LP 2 before it drops on November 5th.
