Eminem drops the “Walk On Water” video featuring Beyonce.
After previewing it the other day, Eminem returns with his new video for Beyonce featured “Walk On Water“. Beyonce doesn’t make an appearance in the video. It appeared on his latest ‘Revival‘ Album and it’s the first video from it. Eminem’s latest album’s first week numbers are also out and it sold over 265k copies, with 197k from pure sales.
According to Billboard, the typewriter scenario is inspired by French scientist Émile Borel’s renowned endless monkey theory, which claims that a monkey randomly pressing keys on a typewriter would ultimately compose a specific word. Despite our best efforts, there are no traces of Beyoncé. Nonetheless, the images are breathtaking.
The rapper comes to the mic in the video and delivers an intimate performance of the song. The rapper then jumps behind a typewriter in a room full of Eminem clones typing out rubbish in a quick transition. What some may see as a return to his Slim Shady days has been deduced to be something else entirely. The album’s title, which was teased by Eminem’s manager Paul Rosenberg earlier this month as part of an elaborate fake advertising campaign, could complete Eminem’s trilogy of albums referencing his admitted struggles with prescription drugs, which began with 2009’s “Relapse” and ended with 2010’s “Recovery.” “The Marshall Mathers LP 2,” released in 2013, was his most recent album.
The 57th entry for both artists on the Billboard Hot 100, “Walk on Water” debuted and reached number 14. As a consequence, they shared 19th place for most songs to enter the chart with The Rolling Stones, Madonna, and other artists. With 64,000 downloads, it also debuted at number 2 on the Digital Songs list. With 18.3 million streams, it debuted at number 15 on the Streaming Songs chart.
