As one might expect, Eminem fans have been loosing their s**t on Twitter, with one writing: "'The King and I' has to be Eminem’s best song in a while."
Another commented: "Yo @Eminem this new 'The King and I' single is f****** ridiculous. I'm speechless."
A third added: "From what I’ve heard of 'The King and I', I think it might be my favourite thing from Eminem since 'Book of Rhymes'. He sounds so good! Can’t wait until tomorrow."
While a fourth thought: "This new Eminem song ('The King and I') is really good, if he continues like this then the next album could be great."

Another simply wrote: "I was worried how’s this gonna be but nahh this is flames lesgo old man."
This comment about his age was slightly uncalled for, yet the fact he is still making competitive rap music at 49 takes some doing.
