Eminem is back.
The famed rapper, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, dropped a surprise rap Wednesday in the midst of election season. The nearly eight-minute-long song, titled "Campaign Speech," discusses Donald Trump, Colin Kaepernick, police brutality and Apple Watches. The explicit song features multisyllabic rhymes over a minimal beat and wastes no time getting to the point.
"Dressing George Zimmerman in a florescent orange dress and four inch heels/To address the court with a bulls-eye on his back/His whole chest and torso left on the doorstep of Trayvon's dad as a present for him," he raps.
Eminem, who just celebrated his 44th birthday, also goes after the GOP nominee in a lengthy diss verse. "And that's what you wanted, a f--king loose cannon who's blunt with his hand on the button who doesn't have to answer to no one? Great idea," he raps.

"If I was president, getting off is the first order of business once I get in office."
The Detroit rapper released the song on his Twitter page, where he also told his 20.8 million followers "Don't worry I'm working on an album! Here's something meanwhile."

There's no saying if "Campaign Speech" will be on his forthcoming album, but based on this intense rap it's clear Eminem hasn't lost his spitfire touch. He hasn't released an album on his own since 2013's Marshall Mathers LP 2, but he did work on the Shady Records complication album Shady XV in 2014. He also contributed music and executive produced the soundtrack to the boxing film Southpaw last year.
