Eminem to Recover in June
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 15 April 2010
Eminem has announced that his new album will be called ‘Recovery’ and that a 22 Jun release date has been pencilled in for it.
Earlier in the day the rap man tweeted that “there is no ‘Relapse 2′”, leading some to speculate that the follow up to last year’s Slim Shady long player – which was expected to be positioned as a sequel to last year’s record – had been canned. But later he clarified what he meant, and confirmed the album would be released this summer, but would be called ‘Recovery’, which has now led to speculation that the new album will be slightly more positive in subject matter than last year’s offering.
Confirming the new album will be quite different to the original ‘Relapse’, Mr Shady said this morning: “I had originally planned for ‘Relapse 2’ to come out last year. But as I kept recording and working with new producers, the idea of a sequel to ‘Relapse’ started to make less and less sense to me, and I wanted to make a completely new album. The music on ‘Recovery’ came out very different from ‘Relapse’, and I think it deserves its own title”.
