With Rick Rubin on the 1s and 2s, Eminem performed his single “Berzerk” and “Survival” on Saturday Night Live from his upcoming album The Marshall Mathers LPs.

The blond emcee acted as musical guest, while Scandal’s Kerry Washington provided the comedic relief.  A straight-faced Em donned all black with an Army-green down coat as he feverishly spit the lyrics to the Beastie Boy-inspired “Berzerk.” He later returned with Liz Rodrigues to perform his Grand Theft Auto single “Survival,” despite his mic being low, the Detroit born rapper still possessed energy his live shows are known for.

Take a look at both performances. MMLP2 drops Tuesday!
