Eminem Announces Comeback Album “The Death of Slim Shady” for Summer 2024, Metro Boomin Wants to Collaborate

Eminem fans, rejoice! The Detroit legend has announced his highly anticipated comeback album, The Death of Slim Shady, set to release this summer. This news comes at a perfect time as hip-hop is experiencing a commercial resurgence in 2024, thanks in part to the ongoing feud between Drake and various other artists in the genre.

One artist who is eager to collaborate with Eminem on this new project is none other than Metro Boomin. The renowned producer took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his interest, writing, “Somebody please tell Eminem I’m tryna lock in,” alongside three lock emojis. Metro has been a prominent figure in the industry for the past decade and has always been vocal about his admiration for Eminem’s work.

In a recent interview, Metro revealed his desire to create an album featuring all the rap stars of the early 2000s, with Eminem being one of his top picks. Despite their different styles, Metro has always been inspired by Eminem and Dr. Dre’s iconic work on 2001, citing it as a major influence on his own music.

With Eminem’s willingness to collaborate with contemporary producers showcased on his previous album Kamikaze, fans can expect a fresh sound on The Death of Slim Shady. While details about the album remain scarce, the prospect of Eminem spitting bars over a Metro Boomin beat is enough to pique the interest of hip-hop enthusiasts everywhere. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting collaboration!
