Shady is back and hints that this is the last time.
Eminem teases The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce)a new album to be released in the summer of 2024.
The Rock Hall inducted rapper breaks the news via a viral video in the style of the true crime show Unsolved Mysteries, telling a narrative of how Em meets his end and asks the question, “who killed Slim Shady.”
It's a tongue-in-cheek job, featuring fellow rapper 50 Cent (who “says he's not a friend, he's a psychopath”), vintage footage of the Detroit rapper, a bloody knife and a pixelated, bearded Em in the hot seat.

This album reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200, for Em's historic 10th consecutive leader. Before that, Eminem made another surprise kamikaze, which was reduced in 2018 without any warning in 2018.
Eminem was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 2022, in a class that included Duran Duran, Eurythmics, Dolly Parton, Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo, Lionel Richie and Carly Simon. Em's longtime partner Dr. Dre did the honors.
