How to play Eminem's 'The Monster' ft. Rihanna.

A super-easy to play song, yet again grooving steadily on the hip-hop mantra:ย 

Loooooooooop.

Just the one riff, three chords, keep on playing 'em on and on and you'll be able to produce the entire song.

A nice song and exercise for all of you beginner Pop-Pianists.

For the sake of effective learning and piano-skill growth for those of you that already passed the 'beginner' level of playing: I put in some pattern / rhythm exercises in which the left- and right hand have to act separately, that might be a bit challenging for some of you (nothing too advanced going on, but it's a nice groove to nail). And remember: Challenge causes growth.

Have fun and please leave a comment!

Cheers, Coen.
