The Kamikaze rapper is yet to release anything this year, and it’s been three years since he last dropped an album. Back in 2020, the rapper released his eleventh studio album “Music To Be Murdered By”, which topped the Billboard 200 and made him the first artist to have ten consecutive number-one albums in the US.
While there’s no album from the rapper, he trends every week on social media for a surprise announcement or release, which he did with his last few projects.

Later in 2022, Eminem released a deluxe edition of his “8 Mile” Soundtrack to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the album. In August, he dropped another greatest hits compilation album “Curtain Call 2”, featuring some of his top hits since 2009. The double disc album featured 16 tracks, including his most recent release “The King And I” with CeeLo Green, and “From The D 2 The LBC” with Snoop Dogg. At the end of 2022, the rapper was also honoured with the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction.
