Eminem - The Monster, ft. Rihanna (Music Video - Watch now!) [+ Review]


 It's here - the music video for the track The Monster, featuring Eminem and duet partner, Rihanna. The track is the fourth collaboration from the notorious rapper and barbadian singer. The new music video, released earlier today, sees Eminem play the role of the patient, who reflects on his past; contemplating the negative impacts that come with fame. Rihanna, on the other hand, portrays the role of therapist, and is seen to struggle with her inner demons, singing the chorus. Watch the intriguing video, below:



In true Inception style, Eminem embarks on a journey in a lift viewing moments from him receiving therapy, whilst memories from his past videos play on a TV screen. In terms of economic success, the song itself topped the charts in several countries, marking another successful collaboration for Eminem and Rihanna. The video itself is suitably dark and poignant, which reflects the nature of the song well, and fits into the general theme of Eminem's videos. So, what do you think of the video, and more importantly, the track itself?
