What did you get up to on the weekend? See some friends? Go out on the town? A date maybe? That's nice... We ask because all our plans went out the window on Saturday when Eminem debuted the video for brand new single "Not Afraid".
We've been locked in the house hitting repeat and trying to dissect the guts and glory involved ever since. We have concluded that, as much as we have always adored Em's Slim Shady alter-ego, we like it even better when he keeps it so real it's raw.
And make no mistake, "Not Afraid" sounds and looks like someone coming back from the dead:
We think it might just be Mr Mathers' most powerful single since the Oscar-winning "Lose Yourself".
"Not Afraid" is taken from the much-anticipated Recovery album, which is out June 22 (through Aftermath Records) and we can only hope it all has the same air of focus, determination and empathy that its first single does. Sheer brilliance.
