Eminem MMLP2 New Album 2013: Rapper Releases Official Teaser For Rap God [VIDEO]
Eminem teases the visual for "Rap God," the most popular and challenging track off his chart-topping eighth studio album, "The Marshall Mathers LP 2."
The Detroit rapper took Twitter to announce the release date of the music video and a link to the half-minute short official teaser for the clip.
"RAPGOD video coming Nov 27: https://youtu.be/Vo7Tn6CAwuI" Em tweeted.
Directed by Rich Lee, the video to Eminem's six-minute supersonic wordplay has reportedly been filmed at the Russell Industrial Center complex, just north of downtown in Slim Shady's hometown of Detroit, Michigan.
Rich Lee, who has recently directed another visual for Eminem on "The Monster" featuring Rihanna, certainly has been the rapper's favorite director. He has worked on the music videos of the lead single "Not Afraid" from Eminem's 2010 "Recovery" album and the Bad Meets Evil single "Lighters." Lee also directed Eminem-assisted "My Life" video for 50 Cent featuring Adam Levine.
The brief teaser features the self-claimed "Rap God" clad in a classic black suit and a matching tie, completing his sharp look with a pair of dark shades and his signature platinum blonde hair.
"Look, I was gonna go easy on you not to hurt your feelings / But I'm only going to get this one chance / Something's wrong, I can feel it (for six minutes, Slim Shady, you're on) / Just a feeling I've got, like something's about to happen," Eminem playfully raps the introduction over a catchy techno beat, standing in front of a trippy multicolor screen.
The "Berzerk" rapper previously talked about his involvement in his own music videos.
"I'm always imagining shooting video; visualizing the picture. What everything could, should look like," said Eminem. "I'm always thinking about music videos and ideas, concepts. I do that for almost all of my songs."
