Detroit, MI – Eminem is gearing up to release his 12th studio album, “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce),” this summer. The Detroit rapper has been dropping hints about the project for some time, including a cryptic “Unsolved Mysteries” parody video teasing the album’s title and theme.
Details about the album, including potential guest appearances and the exact release date, are still under wraps. However, fans can expect a return to Eminem’s signature style, with the album likely featuring the controversial alter ego Slim Shady.
“The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce)” follows Eminem’s 2020 chart-topping album “Music to Be Murdered By.” This will be his first full-length project since then.
Eminem is known for dropping albums unexpectedly, like his 2018 chart-topping release “Kamikaze.” With no new music in 2024 so far, the lead single from “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce)” will be his first offering this year.
The album’s existence was first revealed by Dr. Dre during a late-night TV appearance in March, sparking excitement among fans.
Fake Obituary Hints at Song Title?
Adding to the mystery, Eminem placed a fake obituary in the Detroit Free Press in May, seemingly saying goodbye to his controversial persona Slim Shady. The obituary’s headline, “Slim Shady Made Lasting Impressions,” with the subheading “Fans ‘Will Never Forget’ Controversial Rapper,” has fans speculating that “‘Will Never Forget'” might be the title of a lead single from the album.
