The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grace)” is coming this summer, according to a 30-second promo that dropped yesterday.
Eminem’s longtime friend 50 Cent is in the cameo. “He’s not a friend, he’s a psychopath,” he says. “The same rude lyrics and controversial antics may have ultimately led to his demise. Join me as we recreate the events that led to the murder of Slim Shady.”
The album will be Eminem’s 12th studio album and his first since 2020. And it looks to bring back his Slim Shady alter ego — the diabolical character who served as the namesake of Em’s 1999 breakthrough album, “The Slim Shady LP.”
