Eminem - New album with horror video announced
US-Rapper Eminem (51) announces his new album "The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grace)" for July 12th with a horror clip.
One Minute of Horror
The one-minute video begins in a delivery room. "If I count to three, you have to press as hard as you can," the doctor tells a woman in labor. Then comes the shock: The child isn't breathing, it's lifeless. After several harsh slaps on the buttocks from the doctor, it comes back to life. The mother rejoices, saying to the baby in her arms, "You're the little devil baby with the forked tongue, that always tormented me." Then it gets gruesome again: The baby opens its pitch-black eyes, and devil horns and sharp, demonic teeth grow out of its head. "Holy shit!", exclaim the doctor and the nurses. The trailer then switches and shows the name and release date of "The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grace)" in bright graffiti.
The clip seems to depict the text "little devil baby with the forked tongue, hanging out" from the single "Houdini," which was released at the end of May. With the song and the accompanying video, the rapper brought back his alter ego Slim Shady, with whom he became famous in the late 1990s. Previously, he had already announced a new album for the summer but had not yet given a specific date.
After four years, finally a new album
"The Death of Slim Shady" is the twelfth album of the rapper, who goes by the civil name Marshall Bruce Mathers III. His last album "Music to Be Murdered By" was released in January 2020.
