Recording artist Taylor Swift (R) hugs Calvin Harris at the iHeartRadio Music Awards which broadcasted live on TBS, TNT, AND TRUTV from The Forum on April 3, 2016 in Inglewood, California.

It does not seem like a collaboration song by "Rap God" rapper Eminem, 44, and "Bad Blood" singer Taylor Swift, 27, is happening very soon but it is not impossible. The two musicians have a common collaborator, Kendrick Lamar. 

In 2013, Eminem recorded "Love Game" with Lamar. It is one of the 16 tracks in the "Rap God" rapper's eighth studio album titled "The Marshall Mathers LP 2."

"Love Game" is not the only collaboration song in "The Marshall Mathers LP 2." Also in the album are "A-----e" featuring Skylar Grey, "The Monster" featuring Rihanna and "Headlights" featuring Nate Ruess.

In 2014, Swift and Lamar collaborated on the remix version of "Bad Blood." The song is the only collaboration song among the 13 tracks in Swift's fifth studio album titled "1989."

The first four albums of the "Bad Blood" singer are "Taylor Swift," "Fearless," "Speak Now" and "Red." Her fans have been waiting for the release of her sixth studio album since 2014.

In like manner, fans of Eminem have been waiting the release of his ninth studio since 2013. The seven studio albums he released before "The Marshall Mathers II" are "Infinite," "The Slim Shady LP," "The Marshall Mathers LP," "The Eminem Show," "Encore," "Relapse" and "Recovery."

Rumors claim that both Eminem and Swift are releasing their next albums before 2018. On the other hand, Lamar released his third studio album titled "To Pimp a Butterfly" in 2015.

In a recent interview with BBC, Ed Sheeran said Swift is not going to be releasing her next album until probably the end of 2017. The "Thinking Out Loud" singer, who is a fan of Eminem, pointed out that Christmas is the best time to release because it is the time when everyone buys records.

At the 2017 iHeartRadio Music Awards red carpet on March 5, Sunday, in Los Angeles, California, Sheeran told E! News that a collaboration song with Swift is going to happen "certainly in our lifetime." Watch the music video of "Bad Blood" here:
