Rap legend Eminem has announced that the first single, 'Houdini', from his upcoming album 'The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grace)', will be released this Friday. In an Instagram post, the rapper is seen FaceTiming with magician David Blaine, asking him for "help with something”. Eminem inquires, "I was wondering, how far can we go with this magic? Like, can we do a stunt or something?" Blaine responds by drinking a glass of wine and then biting off the rim of the glass. “Well for my last trick, I’m going to make my career disappear,” said Eminem, clicking off of the convo.
As per Variety, little is known about Eminem‘s 12th studio album, which he previously said would be released this summer. ‘Houdini’ would be the first offering, and a short clip of the instrumental seemingly plays at the end of the Instagram clip. While the rapper has kept details under wraps for ‘The Death of Slim Shady’, his longtime collaborator and mentor Dr Dre let a few details slip earlier this year. In March, Dre went on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ where he revealed that Eminem was working on a new album. He also shared that he contributed to several songs on the project, and was planning to hear the album for the first time the day after his TV appearance.
