Eminem unleashes his 12th album “The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce).”
The day is finally here as Eminem returned with his brand new album titled “The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce).” This is the rapper’s 12th studio album, and a follow-up to 2020’s “Music To Be Murdered By.”
The album contains a pack of 19 tracks with previously released “Tobey” featuring Big Sean & BabyTron and solo single “Houdini”. The rapper revealed the tracklist earlier this week with hidden features. The 19-song tracklist includes songs titles like “Renaissance”, “Brand New Dance”, “Lucifer”, “Antichrist”, “Road Rage”, “Guilty Conscience 2”, “Head Honcho”, “Somebody Save Me” and more.
Just before the release, Eminem’s Paul Rosenberg made an appearance on Shade 45 radio, where he premiered the song titled “Fuel” from the album, and it featured assistance from JID.

Before the album, the Detroit rapper also publicly announced that it is a concept album. “Public service announcement: the “death of slim shady” is a conceptual album, therefore, if you listen to songs out of order they might not make sense. Enjoy,” he wrote.

This is the first time since 2017’s “Revival” that the Detroit rapper started an album rollout, as his two albums in 2018 and 2020 were surprise projects. It’s been over four years since Shady last dropped an album when he dropped his eleventh studio effort “Music To Be Murdered By” in 2020, and a deluxe side b edition in the same year.
Earlier this week, the Detroit rapper dropped the official music video for his latest single “Tobey” featuring Big Sean and BabyTron. The video was directed by Lyrical Lemonade director Cole Bennett. It was the second single from the project, followed up on the hit track “Houdini” which dropped last month. “Houdini” debuted at number 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in its first week.
