Relapse 2 is the upcoming seventh studio album by American rapper Eminem.[2][3] Relapse 2 was confirmed during a press release by Eminem's label on March 5, 2009 and will be the second Eminem album released in 2009, being preceded by Relapse. The album is reported to be slated for release in November 2009.
Background
The album, voted the most anticipated album of fall 2009 by XXL magazine,[4] was announced on March 5, 2009 by Interscope Records when they announced the release date of Relapse and also revealed that a follow-up album, Relapse 2, would be released sometime in the second half of the year. In a press release, Eminem explained that he and Dr. Dre had recorded a considerable amount of music and thus, "Putting out Relapse 2 will let everyone get all of the best stuff."[2] According to Angela Yee's Shade 45 interview with Eminem on April 23, 2009, Relapse 2 will be a continuation of Relapse.[5] During the interview Eminem also confirmed "It's extremely close to being finished, it just depends on how many songs I want to put on it."[6] On June 25, 2009 Eminem called into Shade 45 and said he was in the studio finishing up Relapse 2 and expects a release during the fourth quarter of 2009,[7] with Rolling Stone magazine slating the album for a November 2009 release date.[1]
In another Shade 45 interview, Eminem explained that the album was more "emotionally driven" than the first Relapse record, which was, as he explains "[just] rap records".[8]
Recording and production
In an interview with The Alchemist, he confirmed a song titled "Insult to Injury" in which Eminem performs in his normal voice. He described the song as somewhat of a sequel to "Underground," the final track from the previous album, Relapse.[9]
When speaking to MTV, affiliate DJ Whoo Kid stated he heard some songs from the album. He confirmed that the song, "The Warning," a diss record to Mariah Carey, was not as intense as the entire album would be saying the album is 'maniacal.'[10]
On October 3, 2009, Eminem appeared on Shade 45 with DJ Whoo Kid where he stated that a track with 50 Cent, in which the two rap together on verses, existed.[11] In the same interview, he also confirmed both Just Blaze and Denaun Porter as producers on the album.[11]
