Eminem's new album includes a reference to Tom Brady.
"Premonition," the opening track on "Music To Be Murdered By," which Eminem released by surprise Friday, finds the rapper comparing himself to Brady while discussing his critics:
Revival flopped, came back and I scared the crap out 'em
But Rolling Stone stars, I get two and a half outta
Five, and I'll laugh out loud
'Cause that's what they gave BAD back in the day
Which actually made me not feel as bad now, 'cause
If it happened to James
It can happen to Shady
They do the same shit to Brady
More people hate me than love me
The New England Patriots quarterback was previously name-dropped on Eminem tracks "Baby" and "No Favors," as well as songs by Lil Wayne, Gucci Mane, Kanye West, and more.
"That's always really cool," Brady told Nora Princiotti of the Boston Globe in 2019 of the shoutouts. "I'm a big fan of so many of those guys. I have a lot of friends (in music) that I've met over the years that are fans of what we do, too.
"I just appreciate people that love what they do, and musicians are certainly the same way. They live, dream, think about music all day long. It's in their head, and for so many ways, that's me too. I think about football and plays and schemes all day long."
