AceShowbiz - Eminem finally debuted the music video for "Framed" on April 3 after teasing it last week. The James Larese-directed clip features the Detroit rapper being accused of committing serial murders, but he keeps denying it.
At the beginning of the visuals, a news reporter named Stan Dresden informs viewers that Em has escaped from an asylum. "It's been a terrifying two weeks in the city of Detroit after Marshall Mathers, professionally known as Eminem, escaped from an asylum," he said. "As we know right now, he is barricaded inside that home behind me."
While Em is watching the news from his living room, where dead bodies lie strewed all around, the news team and detectives are waiting to make a move. Throughout the clip, Em insists that he is innocent, saying that he is framed. A police office then enters the scene, hypnotizing Em into confessing to the crime.
In the closing scene, Em is back in an asylum and begins to hallucinate before undergoing another round of hypnosis and receiving an injection of an unknown substance.
Fans are loving the new music video, with many saying that the rapper is back to his dark roots. "He's back in the game," one fan says, while another writes in the comment section, "this is the s**t that sounds like the old eminem, love it." One other fan notes that the track is the only good song off "Revival" as the rest are "garbage."
"Framed" music video is a follow-up to Em's two music videos, "River" and "Walk on Water". The "Rap God" hitmaker is currently gearing up for a European tour in support of his latest album. The tour will kick off on June 30 in Oslo, Norway and wrap up on July 15 in London, U.K. Tickets went on sale to general public on February 2.
