For the last 20-something years Eminem has been, needless to say, pretty hit or miss. Generally, he’s done a lot more missing. But he makes contact with “Tobey,” a new Big Sean and Babytron-assisted single from his forthcoming album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce). Featuring a barrage of tediously clever bars, it’s a track that sees all three spitters in their element.

Holding down his end of things, Babytron flaunts an animated flow and spurts of his customarily inventive wordplay. Meanwhile, Big Sean serves up bars that are as aspirational as they are autobiographical, threading the themes with agility and quippy punchlines. “Bitch, I come from the D where they BMFing / Where they movin’ them kis like a chord progression,” he spits on the track. With Tron and Sean showing out for their verses, it was only right that Em do the same — and he did.
