Eminem officially announced the street date of his eagerly awaited new album; his first original studio album in over four years. Relapse will be released on May 19 on Interscope/ Aftermath/Shady. The first single from the album and its accompanying video will see a simultaneous release on April 7.
Anticipation for Relapse has been building since the fall, when Eminem first announced the album title and debuted the freestyle, "I’m Having A Relapse" during an interview on his Shade 45 satellite radio station. Last month, the release of "Crack A Bottle" from Eminem, Dr. Dre and 50 Cent brought that anticipation to a head. The track soared to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and set a SoundScan record for opening week download sales (418,000). The recording ranked third in the history of all weekly download sales. "Crack A Bottle" will be included as an album track on Relapse.
With the announcement of the release date for Relapse also comes confirmation of something that had been rumored in recent weeks: Eminem is already working on a follow-up album, "Relapse 2", that fans can expect in the second half of 2009. "A lot of people were expecting Relapse to drop last year," said Eminem. "I was one of them. Then Dre and I went back in the studio in September for a few days, and that turned into six months. We were on such a roll; we wound up with a ton of new music produced by Dre. Putting out Relapse 2 will let everyone get all of the best stuff."
Stay tuned to Dubcnn for the latest news on "Relapse"!
