Eminem is back. The Detroit icon announced that he will be releasing his highly anticipated comeback album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce), this summer. Metro Boomin, who has recently started beef with Drake, expressed his desire to work with Eminem on his new album.
Metro took to X (formerly Twitter) after Eminem released the teaser trailer for his new album. The producer didn’t mince words. “Somebody please tell Eminem I’m tryna lock in,” he wrote next to three lock emojis. Metro has been one of the prolific artists in the genre for a decade, so it makes sense that he’d want to experiment. Metro has praised the Detroit rapper multiple times in the past. He hyped up Shady’s 2011 BET cypher on X. He also workshopped a “dream” album with Em in mind during a thread in January.
