Eminem drops music video of “Tobey,” ft. Big Sean & BabyTron

Eminem recently released a new song with Big Sean and Babytron, titled “Tobey,” from his upcoming 12th solo studio album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grace).

A visual supplement for “Tobey” directed by Cole Bennett was supposed to drop on Friday (July 5, 2024). When it failed to manifest as promised, the Detroit legend took to social media that same day to share an update on the video and instead shared a snippet that alludes to the imagery of The Marshall Mathers LP from 2000.

“The Tobey video is not completed,” Em wrote. “new date Monday 7/8. Here’s a peek in the meantime!!! Sorry 4 the delay.” Now the full music video is finally out. You can watch the video below:

New Song: Eminem – “Tobey” ft. Big Sean & BabyTron

Eminem connects THREE different generations of rappers out of the Detroit by featuring Big Sean, BabyTron and himself on “Tobey,” produced by ​marvy ayy, John Nocito, Daniyel, Carlton McDowell, Cole Bennett and Eminem from The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grace) album, dropping on July 12, 2024.

Eminem gave fans a glimpse into the track’s horror theme with a trailer few days ago. The clip finds Em in a Jason Voorhees goalie mask revving a chainsaw and gushing blood while slicing up a body. Babytron and Big Sean watch Eminem’s gruesome butchering in tow without batting an eye.

The ticking ominous production begins and Big Sean gets off the only Spider-Man referencing bar heard in the clip. “Tobey Maguire got bit by a Spider, but me, see it was a goat,” raps Sean.

In his verse, Eminem addresses Melle Mel beef that occurred last year when the pioneer of hip-hop said that Eminem does not deserver to be be in top 5 rappers because he’s white. “When I get dissed by a pioneer / Who was one of the reasons why I’m here / They tell me I should just let that s–t go and slide / “Melle Mel shouldn’t get no reply, that man is a legend” / Bitch, so am I.”

“Tobey” marks Em’s first collab with Babytron and fourth with Big Sean following their team-up in 2017 on I Decided’s “No Favors,” Detroit 2‘s “Friday Night Cypher” and ShadyXV‘s “Detroit Vs. Everybody.” Em kicked off the album rollout with his nostalgic “Houdini” single, which gave him his highest-charting track of the decade when it debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200.

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:
