The song opens with Queen Bey singing, “I walk on water/But I ain’t no Jesus” to a soft piano melody, and Twitter is already loving it. “Beyonce just gave nothing but church vocals on that song lol I live,” wrote one user. Eminem’s big news came out of thin air on the same day Taylor Swift returned with her highly anticipated new album reputation. Naturally, fans have lots of thoughts. Read on to see their reactions.

      Eminem was in the news last month for criticizing President Donald Trump in an epic freestyle during BET’s Hip-Hop Awards. He’ll next appear as the music guest on Saturday Night Live‘s Nov. 18 episode, which is hosted by Chance the Rapper. Beyoncé, of course, was just cast in Disney’s live-action remake of The Lion King as Nala.
