Eminem and Beyoncé Drop Surprise Collaboration and No One Can Cope

T. Swift Vs. Slim and Queen Bey
It's been long-known that Taylor Swift was planning to drop her new album, Reputation today. This new track from the Detroit rapper and former Destiny's Child singer, however, is a complete surprise.
There is no reason to believe that Eminem chose today to drop the song in an attempt to take focus away from Swift's new album, but Twitter users clearly understand the power of such an epic combo.
The Return of Slim Shady
It's been five years since Eminem released his last studio album, The Marshall Mathers LP 2, which was RIAA certified as going four times platinum.
Since then he's dropped a couple singles and even made headlines a few weeks ago with a controversial freestyle rap about Donald Trump.
"Walk on Water" is the first track off of what is said to be Eminem's new album, Revival, that is scheduled to release on Nov. 17.
The Beyoncé Factor
There's no doubt that Eminem has enough legacy to drop a track with no guests and still garner a huge response.
However, choosing to drop a track with Beyoncé appears to have been one of the most cleverly calculated moves since Jay-Z dropped "Holy Grail" with Justin Timberlake.
Adding that epic star power has certainly driven fans wild and they are not holding back their emotions.
