Eminem and Ed Sheeran Drop River: Watch Here

Feb 20, 2018 | 5:15 AM

Eminem experiences the ups and downs of a traumatic relationship alongside Ed Sheeran in a new music video for his single “River.”

Eminem and a former lover share their experiences – including dating behind a husband’s back and an abortion – in the documentary-style video.

The collaboration between Sheeran and Eminem comes after the pop star previously credited the rapper with helping him to overcome his stutter.

“My Uncle Jim told my dad that Eminem was the next Bob Dylan – it’s pretty similar, it’s all just storytelling – so my dad bought me The Marshall Mathers LP when I was nine years old, not knowing what was on it. I learned every word of it, back to front, by the time I was ten. He raps very fast and melodically and percussively, and it helped me get rid of the stutter,” Sheeran said while being honored at the American Institute for Stuttering’s Freeing Voices Changing Lives Benefit Gala in 2015.
