Following up on their summer smash-hit "Love The Way You Lie," Eminem and Rihanna are collaborating again with a second chapter of the story. In "Love The Way You Lie, Part II" they’ve switched up the lead vocal with Rihanna now at the forefront-- the song’s told from her perspective (the track will be on her upcoming album, Loud).
Following up on their summer smash-hit "Love The Way You Lie," Eminem and Rihanna are collaborating again with a second chapter of the story. In "Love The Way You Lie, Part II" they’ve switched up the lead vocal with Rihanna now at the forefront--the song is told from her perspective (the track will be on her upcoming album, Loud). It’s slowed and stripped down with more of Ri-Ri’s signature musical style evident; there’s a great new take on the chorus in particular.
"Love The Way You Lie, Part II" leaked online today--you can listen to it here. There’s no vid yet, but it’ll be interesting to see if Megan Fox and Dominic Monaghan reprise their roles for the video sequel.
What do you think of the song?Do you think it’s going to be as popular as the original take?
