The Detroit native is connecting three different generations of rappers out of The D with Em recruiting Babytron and Big Sean to hop on the menacing “Tobey.” Eminem gave fans a glimpse into the track’s horror theme with a trailer on Friday (June 28).
“TOBEY@babytron @bigsean new music 7/2 video 7/5 by @colebennett,” Em captioned the clip revealing “Tobey” will arrive on Tuesday, July 2, with a Cole Bennett-helmed music video coming two days later, on Friday, July 5.
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,” he raps.
Fans had plenty to say about the upcoming single in Em’s comment section. “We got Eminem x Baby Tron before GTA6,” one wrote while another added: “Baby ft big sounds hilarious!”
“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.”
The 51-year-old kicked off the album rollout with his nostalgic “Houdini” single, which gave Em his highest-charting track of the decade when it debuted at No. 2 on the Hot 100.
Watch the “Tobey” trailer below. Look for the single to hit streaming services on July 3.
