Eminem, Lil Wayne, Drake ve Travis Barker’la “Forever” performansından sonra, XXLMag.com, Shady’nin beklenen yeni cd’si “Relapse 2″ hakkında The Alchemist’le ince ince araştırma yapma şansı yakaladı.
Albümün henüz bir çıkış tarihi yokken, ALC diyor ki Em stüdyoda Dj Khalil’le yoğun bir şekilde çalışıyor. Göze çarpan işleri Drake (Fear), Clipse (Kinda Like a Big Deal) ve Slaughterhouse (Cuckoo)’a prodüksiyon yapması. Alchemist, XXL’e “Khalil, Em’e kayıtlar gönderiyor bir süredir, ama olmuş gibi değil” diyor. “Em biliyordu onun budala olduğunu ama doğru olanı bulamamışlardı. ve sanırım şimdi birkaç eklenti sağladılar… onlardaki eklemeler çok çılgın. Yüzde 100 diyemem (albümü yaptı mı yapmadı mı diye), ama duyduğum kadarıyla Khalil’in 2 eklenti yapmış ve harbiden bok gibiymiş.”

Daha öncedende Relapse 2′nin 17 Kasımda çıkacağı söylenmişti ama Eminem’in menajeri Paul Rosenberg XXL’e konuşarak tarih sahte denilmişti. Fakat “WAL-MART” mağazalarında Relapse 2′nin çıkış tarihi olarak 17 Kasım yazıyor. Bekleyip görücez!

As we previously reported back in August Eminem’s “Relapse 2” album was popping up on popular online retailers with a release date of November 17th. Later Eminem’s manager Paul Rosenberg told XXLMag “Relapse 2 is not dropping November 17th.” While what Paul Rosenberg may have told them may still be true, Wal-Mart is advertising otherwise. A reader emailed me the photo above this morning that was taken inside of a Wal-Mart which is advertising the denied November 17th release date. Was this just an honest mistake on Wal-Mart’s behalf, or is “Relapse 2” actually releasing November 17th?

This right here is a Dub Floyd Screamixx produced by Rod Da Blizz, from the Punish ‘EM project! Eminem meets Big Pun, so you already know this is a classic!
Dub Floyd took the time out to breakdown the Punish ‘EM project:
The project is called Punish ‘EM, after the whole XXL concept of Eminem being The Punisher…. it’s strictly a whole Eminem project with original production & blends as well as classic & rare joints. “Pun Intended” is the title track of the project, being that Eminem is portraying The Punisher in XXL & everyone in Hip Hop knows Big Pun as The Punisher so I thought the title of the track was clever. The project has more features than just Big Pun though…. Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, D12, Lil’ Wayne, Mary J. Blige, Mariah Carey, Grafh, Slaughterhouse, Wu-Tang Clan and more!!!
With Eminem’s comeback album, Relapse, officially coming out last Tuesday, fans and industry people alike have had a chance to listen and offer their opinions on the highly anticipated album. In the upcoming issue of Entertainment Weekly, the magazine spoke to several people who worked on the album as well as Em’s peers to get more incite into the disc and the superstar’s road back into the spotlight.
Kanye West told EW, “I think that the ‘Insane’ song is genius.” Producer and Eminem’s tour DJ, The Alchemist, said, “I can’t even explain how in the zone he is. I think some of the drugs make you introverted and antisocial. Maybe everybody got accustomed to that with Em, because that became part of his personality. But now that’s all gone. The funny guy and the creativity are all still there. Maybe he had to almost die for it to happen, but man, he’s on point.”
DMC, who Em recently inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, along with the late Jam Master Jay and Reverend Run, is also a huge fan. “His music is his therapy,” DMC said. “I can relate to everything he’s saying. [Expressing] those dark, depressing times, that’s what rock ‘n’ roll is supposed to do.”
Relapse is currently in stores now. HitsDailyDouble.com already projects the album to be the biggest first-week seller of 2009, with early estimates of the album breaking 600,000 units on Wednesday’s (May 27) Nielsen SoundScan sales report.
Eminem’s Relapse Lyrics: What To Listen For
We decode the MC’s dark rhymes, in which he discusses his struggle with addiction and Proof’s death.
Relapse is Eminem’s grand return to hip-hop after keeping quiet for almost five years. Em has publicly discussed his struggle with sobriety and his feelings about the death of his best friend Proof, who was fatally shot in 2006, but the Detroit MC goes even deeper into those emotions in the lyrics on the new LP.
In the album’s liner notes, Eminem dedicates Relapse to his late friend. He’s said recently that he couldn’t put together a song in tribute to Proof that he was satisfied with. Instead, he honored Proof by dedicating the entire album to him and drops tidbits here and there about his fellow D12 member.
“With this record, and you can hear it, maybe he sort of references Proof in ways people who really know and people who really care will pick up on,” said Sacha Jenkins, who collaborated with Em on the rapper’s biography, “The Way I Am.” “But he’s also trying to pick up the pieces and move beyond and continue to create art in the spirit of his friendship with Proof.”
Here, MTV News pulls out a few lyrics from Relapse in which Em sets the record straight or paints a clearer picture of his struggle.
“Déjà Vu”
In December 2007, Eminem was reportedly hospitalized for pneumonia. On “Déjà Vu,” one of the standout tracks on Relapse, Em clears the air about his supposed illness. He was sick, but it was due to his immune system being weakened by drugs. “That Christmas, you know that whole pneumonia thing,” he raps. “It was bologna, was it the methadone, ya think?” On the same track, Em mentions Proof by name for the only time on the project. In the song’s third verse, Em says his mourning helped him spiral out of control. “Wouldn’t even be taking this sh– if DeShaun didn’t die/ Oh, yeah, there’s an excuse — you lose Proof so you use.”
“Stay Wide Awake”/ “Same Song & Dance”
Em has always had a dark and twisted humor, but a few tracks on Relapse are especially morbid. According to XXL Editor in Chief Datwon Thomas, Em watched a number of crime shows during his hiatus. His interest in the macabre is more than evident. “So dark and so cold my friends don’t know this other side of me,” he raps over Dre’s sinister production on “Stay Wide Awake.” “There’s a monster inside of me, it’s quite ugly and it frightens me.”
“Beautiful”
This Eminem-produced track is the album’s magnum opus, clocking in at more than six minutes. On the somber tune, Em reveals not only his battle with addiction, but his struggle over whether his run in rap was finished. He’s long dodged retirement rumors, but here he raps: “I’m starting to feel distant again, so I decided to pick up this pen/ And try to make an attempt to vent, but I can’t admit/ Or come to grips with the fact that I may be done with rap/ I need a new outlet.”
“Insane”/ “My Mom”
We’ve heard these types of tracks before from Em. Slim Shady is crazy! His mother is crazy! But these songs are also the first response the rapper has had publicly since his mother, Debbie Nelson, released her own book, “My Son Marshall, My Son Eminem: Setting the Record Straight on My Life as Eminem’s Mother.” In her tome, Nelson portrays herself as a loving matriarchal figure and Em as a child who was bullied by the men in her life, leading to his fears and paranoia. On “My Mom,” Em, however, claims he’s a drug addict because his mother is one. And on “Insane,” he raps about being abused by his stepfather.
“Underground”
Before Slim Shady was a celebrity-bashing superstar on singles like “Without Me,” Eminem’s alter ego was an outlandish lyricist whose shocking lines were so brilliant they elicited more laughs than backlash. On the final track from Relapse, Em returns to his “Just Don’t Give a F—” days as he wrecks the mic, bar after bar. “Six semen samples, 17 strands of hair/ Found in the back of a van after the shoot with Vanity Fair,” he raps. “Hannah Montana prepare/ To elope with a can opener or be cut open like cantaloupe on canopy beds/ And Glad bags, yeah, glad to be back.”
Slim Shady withdraws from the spotlight.
As the May 19 release of Eminem’s long-awaited Relapse album approaches, MTV News is taking a deep dive into our extensive Eminem archives and examining each phase of the MC’s storied career. Part one looked at his rise; part two at his initial stardom; part three at his feature-film debut in “8 Mile”; part four at his 50 Cent co-sign and the toned-down album Encore; and here, in part five, his second divorce, death of his best friend, and hiatus.
Overweight? Overdosed? Or something altogether worse?
Those were just some of the many questions asked about Eminem during his three-year retreat from the public eye.
Slim Shady had been ubiquitous since he first stepped on the scene in 1999. The superstar lyricist recorded multiple blockbuster albums, created headline-grabbing controversies and cemented his legacy as not only one of the greatest rappers of all time but also one of the most important artists and musical voices of his generation. Then he seemed to slowly fade out of the spotlight.
Em reconciled with Kim once again in December of 2005 and quickly remarried the mother of his child in a whirlwind courtship one month later. 50 Cent attended the Michigan nuptials, along with D12, and Proof served as the best man.
However, three months later the pair split once more, seemingly for good this time. Eminem filed for divorce from Kim, who he had dated on and off again since his high school days. The swift breakup was as puzzling to some as their second trip down the aisle.
But just as Eminem was dealing with his second divorce, he’d be struck by shocking tragedy less than seven days later. His best friend, mentor and fellow D12 member Proof was fatally shot in a Detroit club on April 11, 2006. The venerable rapper’s death caught the hip-hop community off guard — Proof had proven to be an affable and extremely well-liked person among his many peers.
The double dose of bad news sent Eminem reeling.
Veteran journalist Sacha Jenkins, who partnered with Eminem to work on the rapper’s 2008 biography “The Way I Am,” described the incidents as ingredients that led to Em’s increased drug use and eventual addiction and dependency.
“I think the grind of doing something that he really loved and that turning into this really super pressure-filled career, on top of the tragedies that he suffered — including personally his relationship with people within his family like his mother, the situation losing his best friend Proof, all those things combined — I believe and he believed, contributed to his downward spiral.”
Through his camp, Eminem released a touching statement about Proof and then went into hiatus.
“You don’t know where to begin when you lose somebody who’s been such a big part of your life for so long. Proof and I were brothers,” Eminem said in the statement. “He pushed me to become who I am. Without Proof’s guidance and encouragement there would have been a Marshall Mathers, but probably not an Eminem and certainly never a Slim Shady. Not a day will go by without his spirit and influence around us all. He will be missed as a friend, father and both the heart and ambassador of Detroit hip-hop.”
Em made a rare appearance two months after Proof’s death at the 2007 BET Awards in June, joining Busta Rhymes onstage for a performance. But for the next year and a half — throughout the latter half of 2006 and all of 2007 — Eminem was barely seen or heard from.
Rumors swirled that the rapper was battling drugs. A doctored photo popped up online of a bloated Eminem that caused a stir regarding his weight. Then, in January of last year he was hospitalized, reportedly due to a bout of pneumonia.
No one knew just what to believe about the rapper who had all but become a recluse. It wasn’t until two June cover-story interviews, with Vibe and XXL, that fans got the unfiltered details of Eminem’s whereabouts. He revealed he was a recovering drug addict and spent stints in and out of rehab to deal with his addiction to pills.
XXL Editor in Chief Datwon Thomas, who interviewed Em for the story, said he was surprised by how candid the rapper was about his struggle for sobriety.
“When we got into the interview, he was just, ‘Yo, man, I went through all this stuff with these pills.’ I was like, ‘Whoa.’ It just hit me,” Thomas told MTV News. “I actually had it down further in my notes. I had to rearrange everything and bring it to the top, like, ‘Whoa, we going in.’ I didn’t have my scuba gear on fast enough to go that deep where he was at. But it was good, because it set the tone for the whole thing. To be open that much, that early, just led me in a way where I could go where I wanted to. The only place where he protected as far as personal side was his daughters and Kim.”
Thomas said Em was very measured during his admission, using the word “struggle” over and over as he discussed his challenges. It was clear he understood his comments would be explaining a lot.
“His tone was pretty even throughout. Whenever he would get into those dark, emotional places, you could feel the pause in him,” Thomas said. “Just kind of, ‘Wow, I’m really saying this. This is gonna be out for the people.’ You could just see him going through that. But at the same time you could also see him releasing it and him being cool with it. Being cool with letting people know, ‘You’re going through problems I’m going through.’ He’s letting you know, ‘I’m going through the same thing, and it’s a constant struggle.’ The number-one word he used throughout the interview was struggle. ‘I struggle with this.’ And with someone that fights so much, he was just ready to let go [and admit he was a drug addict].”
Last June Eminem began making his comeback. He phoned into his Shade 45 satellite radio station to prank call LL Cool J, who was being interviewed by one of the DJs. Shortly after, his label, Interscope Records, announced he was working on a new album.
In September of 2008, he confirmed he was concentrating on his own new material, and he later announced in November the title of his new album: Relapse.
Eminem may have been knocked down, but Marshall Mathers managed to pick himself back up. Now guess who’s back?
