Returning rap megastar Eminem is set to mock British singer Amy Winehouse on his soon to be released comeback single.
It’s been a long time coming, but ‘Relapse’ is almost upon us. Eminem’s new album, his first in five years, has been much delayed but is due to hit the shops in June and is set to be one of the biggest releases of the year.
Marshal Mathers withdrew from music after the death of close friend The Game, with his only release in five years being his recent autobiography ‘The Way I Am’. However the rapper has been working on tracks with long time producer Dr Dre, and his comeback single is typically provocative.
‘We Made You’ is the first single from the rapper’s new album ‘Relapse’. A report on Gigwise states the rapper jokes about Amy Winehouse’s relationship with her former husband Blake Fielder-Civil.
Eminem raps “Oh Amy, rehab never looked so good, I can’t wait, I’m going back.”
The hip hop star is on typically frenetic form running through a list of pop culture references including Ellen Degeneres, Lindsay Lohan, John Mayer and Jessica Alba.
The rapper takes a political stance of sorts when he discusses the recent Republican Vice-Presidential candidate Sarah Palin. A ‘hockey mom’ Palin’s campaign was the subject of much debate and media interest.
Eminem raps: “Give me my Ventolin inhaler and two Xenadrine and I’ll invite Sarah Palin out to dinner then nail her.”
According to a recent interview, sessions with Dr Dre were so productive the rapper could be set to release a follow up album ‘Relapse 2’ later in the year.
Eminem is set to release his new single ‘We Made You’ on April 13th.
