Eminem Releases 'Survival', Single From 8th Album [VIDEO]

Eminem released his long awaited new single, Survival, on Wednesday.

The song first appeared as the backdrop for the advent of a video game commercial. The new ad is for "Call of Duty: Ghosts". The song begins with a female singing the intro before the celebrated rapper begins to rhyme about how he wasn't ready to be a millionaire.

The track is slated to be feature on Eminem's upcoming release which does not yet have a release date. The 8^th studio album has been widely anticipated by fans since Eminem's 2010 effort, Recovery. In February, Shady Records President Paul Rosenberg confirmed to Billboard that in 2013, the wait would be over.

"He's been working on it for some time. It's safe to say that it will be post-Memorial Day at some point, but we're not exactly sure when. We've got some dates locked in for him to perform live in Europe in August, so we're trying to see what else lines up," Rosenberg said.
