It’s a surprisingly quick turnaround, given how slowly Eminem has been releasing details. The rapper has, however, experimented with different rollouts in the past. Relapse had a lengthy promo cycle since it was supposed to be Eminem’s comeback. Recovery was billed as a correction the mixed reviews of Relapse, and Kamikaze was dropped out of nowhere. The Death of Slim Shady is obviously aiming to be a grand sendoff for Eminem’s alter ago, so it makes sense that he would want to make sure all eyes were on him.
Em hasn’t spoken in depth about The Death of Slim Shady, beyond his promos. He did, however, shed some light on his recording process during a January appearance on Shade 45. “I’m working on a little something,” he told Whoo Kid. Eminem also hinted future collaborations with 50 Cent, who appeared in the first promo for The Death of Slim Shady. “I told him whatever the f*ck he needs from me, I’m here,” the rapper explained. “That sh*t’d be crazy, though… 50’s on a roll right now. He’s been on a roll since the tour.” Hopefully we get to hear these two Aftermath stars on wax again.
