Eminem’s instructions for listening to ‘The Death Of Slim Shady’

Eminem’s instructions for listening to ‘The Death Of Slim Shady’

Eminem has shared instructions on how to listen to his new album ‘The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce)’ properly – find out more below.

Last night, the rapper took to social media to share a “public service announcement”. In the post, he notes that the record – due to arrive today (July 12) – is a “conceptual album”.

His suggestion for listening to the record is simple: “If you listen to songs out of order, they might not make sense.”

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.

The album will seemingly see the rapper kill off his alter ego Slim Shady. Earlier this week, Eminem shared the album’s cover art, which sees Slim Shady’s head poking out of a bodybag. He also shared the tracklist, which includes ‘Guilty Conscience 2’, but omitted a list of featuring artists.

Ahead of the new album, Eminem most recently released the record’s second single, ‘Tobey’ featuring Big Sean and BabyTron. It follows on from ‘Houdini’, which was released on May 31 and interpolates a number of Eminem’s previous hits as well as ‘Abracadabra’ by the Steve Miller Band. The song garnered controversy as it references the shooting incident involving Megan Thee Stallion in 2020, as well as the transgender community, cancel culture, and RuPaul.

Eminem’s last studio album, ‘Music to Be Murdered By’, was released in January 2020. NME gave it a three-star review, saying: “He’s ready to pass on hard-earned wisdom before running his mouth like he hasn’t learned his own lessons. And he offers casual fans a hook or two before embarking on another lyrical work-out. It would actually be quite disappointing to see Eminem grow up entirely, and he seems to be having fun as he navigates his own idiosyncratic space.”
