Earlier this month, Tech N9ne revealed that his long-awaited collaboration with Eminem would appear on his new album Special Effects. Titled "Speedom," the track, which also features Krizz Kaliko, has surfaced. The three rappers impressively spit their verses at a mile a minute on the new track -- speed(om) indeed.
"I said to Seven 'Richard Havens'll be the man' / So we put it together thinking Eminem was a gamble / Guess not, cause he be the guest spot / Kaliko said, 'what we doin'?,' I said to 'im, 'Let's chop' / So now the people finally get three of the best locked / Never be another choppers comin' so let's rock, n***a / You're on, people got to wondering if it's a for sure song / Yes I got another killer making a tour strong / If you thinking of battling - you're gone!," Tech spits before Krizz Kaliko hops on for his verse.
Eminem takes on the third verse, starting off with lines about popping uppers, setting fire to a diner, and crashing the get-away car before segueing into braggadocios rhymes about his skills as a rapper.
"I was with Dr. Dre and Robert Blake / Eatin' lobster, steak and coffee cake/ At a restaurant with Drake / And Tech just got to make sure that our stories corroborate," Em raps with rapid-fire delivery. "I'm a lot to take like Kanye walking up on the stage for Beyoncé like / It's my job to say that you're not a real artist but it's my obligation / Honest Abe is on his way you will not escape / Ammunition, replenish the Punisher with his gun at your hundred words."

"Speedom" is Eminem and Tech's first collaboration since 1999's "The Anthem."
Tech spoke about the collaboration with HotNewHipHop earlier this month.
"I've been wanting to work with Eminem for a long time," he said. "Eminem finally came through and blessed me with a f**king 24-bar verse when I only needed 16. He felt it that much."
Special Effects follows up 2014's Strangeulation and is due out May 5.
