However, the only real “new” release on the “expanded mourner’s edition” is the ‘Fuel’ remix – ‘Like My Shit’ and ‘Kyrie & Luka’ were previously available as digital bonus tracks for those who pre-ordered the special edition of ‘The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce)’ in July.
In a three-star review of ‘The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce)’, NME wrote: “Much more powerful is ‘Temporary’, a genuinely moving ode to his daughter, Hailie, which proves Marshall Mathers can say something that matters when he wants to.
“So, who killed Slim Shady? In bringing him back to the light and showing him up as irrelevant, perhaps Eminem’s done his old pal in for good. OK, we get it – Shady was a shocking character. Now that he’s dead, how about getting some new material?”
Most recently, Eminem opened the 2024 MTV VMAs, where he performed ‘Houdini’ and ‘Somebody Save Me’. He also won two awards: Best Hip-Hop and Best Visual. For his performance, he recreated his early 2000s performance, bringing out an army of Slim Shady clones.
Elsewhere, Tyler, The Creator has apologised to Eminem for his ‘Recovery’ criticism.
