<p>The rapper dropped a surprise album last night featuring a song from the movie’s soundtrack </p>
<p>Rapper Eminem dropped a surprise album at midnight Friday (titled <em>Kamikaze</em>), and the very last track on this late-night release is a track called “Venom,” which — you guessed it — will be featured in <a href="https://www.polygon.com/2018/7/31/17597140/venom-trailer-tom-hardy">Sony’s upcoming <em>Venom </em>movie</a>. </p>
<p>Eminem had teased the track before the album’s release, <a href="https://twitter.com/Eminem/status/1035277473397833729%27">tweeting a very short clip </a>(in which he raps “VeNUUUUMMM”) and tagging the movie’s account. Curiosity picked up among fans, with responses ranging from <a href="https://twitter.com/eminemsbucky/status/1035278134625497088">sheer excitement</a> to, uh, <a href="https://twitter.com/RealJacobSarver/status/1035278624210018304">more mixed reactions</a>. </p>
<p>The four-and-a-half-minute track features shout-outs to Edgar Allan Poe, Dr. Dre and Danica Patrick, among others. There’s also the repetition of “VeNUMMMM” — you know, just in case you weren’t sure who this track was about.</p>
<p>The Genius lyrics interpretations of the song offer more in-depth observations — for instance, in this line:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>You marvel that? Eddie Brock is you<br />And I’m the suit, so call me</p>
</blockquote>
<p><a href="https://genius.com/15288642">A user observed</a> that we as listeners are all Eddie Brock — the powerless, totally mundane human — but by listening to Eminem’s lyrics, we are thus empowered to turn into our Venom (or Slim Shady) alter egos. Profound, truly. Who wouldn’t want to walk around with a parasitic symbiote and <a href="https://www.polygon.com/2018/4/24/17276802/venom-tumblr-tom-hardy-teratophilia-spider-man">a slobbering tongue</a>?</p>
