Eminem & Yelawolf Collaborate on New Track "Best Friend," to Be Released on 'Love Story' Album

A few weeks after Twitter nearly shut down when Eminem released a snippet of a new song on a movie trailer, it looks like Em will be releasing another track. It will not just be his, though. He and Yelawolf collaborated on a song called "Best Friend" for his protégé's second album Love Story. Fans will be able to hear the new Yelawolf album next week when it is released April 21.

Snippets of the song have been released online. Here is one line from Yelawolf on "Best Friend":

But if you spit on my f**kin' grave and wish me hell,

then I wish you well,

and I'll send you straight up to my best friend.

Here is a line from Eminem's verse:

I'm about to vomit, and I can feel it coming up

because failure is something I can barely stomach.

The April 21 release is the first time Yelawolf has released an album since 2011. In rap terms, four whole years is equivalent to a lifetime of being away. By no means has Yelawolf been lazy, though. Since that first Radioactive album, he has collaborated on EPs with Ed Sheeran and Travis Barker. With Sheeran he put together a track called "Slumdon" and he and Barker's song is titled "Psycho White." In 2013, he even released a free mixtape called Trunk Muzik Returns.

His best work to date, though, probably came on "Shady Cxvher" and "Twisted." Those songs were featured on the Shady XV compilation album, which was released in honor of Shady Records's 15th anniversary.
