After years of speculation and rumours, Eminem’s track “Freak”, originally tied to the “Bodied” soundtrack, has leaked in full, giving fans a glimpse of what could have been.
“Freak”, an unreleased song tied to the 2017 Bodied soundtrack, has surfaced online in full over seven years after it was first rumoured. The track, which features Anderson .Paak and Boogie, was reportedly recorded during the “Revival” era but was never officially released.
Speculation around “Freak” began in 2017 when rumours of a collaboration between Eminem and Anderson .Paak started circulating. Anderson himself reignited the buzz during a 2018 interview with Sway, confirming the track’s existence and describing it as “a funky tune” featuring Boogie. Snippets of new music, including “Freak”, were reportedly teased throughout the “Bodied” movie, as noted by fans who saw the film in theatres or streamed it on YouTube Premium.
Despite fan demand, the “Bodied” soundtrack was never released, leaving “Freak” in limbo for years. The song was thought to have served its purpose in the film, with little hope it would ever see the light of day.
Now, with the entire track leaked, fans are savouring what might have been. While it is bittersweet to think of the song’s potential impact had it been released in 2017, listening to now is a guilty pleasure for listeners who have waited patiently for this moment.
