Eminem announces new single with Big Sean & BabyTron

Eminem is teaming with Detroit’s own Big Sean and BabyTron, on his new single “Tobey,” Slim Shady announced on social media on about an hour ago.

The announcement came with a black-and-white teaser that sees Eminem, clad in a hockey mask and sporting a chainsaw, getting into some bloody business as Sean and BabyTron look on. As the camera pulls back, an outline of a body is revealed, and Sean starts rapping, “Tobey Maguire got bit by a spider but see, me? It was a GOAT.” The single is set to arrive Tuesday, and the Cole Bennett-directed music video will be released July 5.

The single will act as the second single from Eminem’s new album, “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)” which is due out this summer. First single “Houdini,” which was released May 31, debuted at No. 2 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart and is No. 1 on Billboard 200 Global.

Eminem and Big Sean have collaborated before; Big Sean was on Eminem’s “Detroit vs. Everybody” posse cut in 2014, and Eminem appeared on Sean’s track “No Favors” from his 2017 album “I Decided.” Eminem also appeared on Big Sean’s track “Friday Night Cypher” from 2020’s “Detroit 2.” Both rappers performed at the Michigan Central Station reopening concert earlier this month.

BabyTron, the 24-year-old Ypsilanti born rapper, released his latest mixtape “Case Dismissed” in February. In 2022, XXL magazine called him “Michigan’s hottest new rap prospect” when naming him to the magazine’s annual Freshman 10 class, and he told The Detroit News in 2023, “I want to be Michael Jackson-big.” You can watch the announcement of new single below:
