Em shares an 8-minute track while working on his new album.

Eminem has been quiet for a while, but today he returns in a big way with the release of "Campaign Speech." Taking to Twitter, the rapper announced that he's working on a new album, sharing the song for fans to listen to in the meantime.

The nearly 8-minute song is as minimal as it gets on the production side, as a low hum of distorted synth is the only consistent portion of the instrumental. However, Em's rhymes are as dense and multi-syllabic as ever, containing the same name-drops and punchlines he's been known for over the years. He takes the opportunity to vent on a number of issues, calling out Trayvon Martin's killer, George Zimmerman, as well as denouncing Trump. 

He wraps things up by asking himself; "Why am I such a dick?"
