The LP boasts 19 tracks and includes previously released singles “Houdini” and “Tobey” featuring Big Sean and BabyTron, along with a sequel to 1999’s “Guilty Conscience” with Dr. Dre.

Eminem took a moment on Thursday (July 11) to explain to fans that TDOSS is actually a “conceptual album,” and he implored listeners to press play and follow the sequencing of the project as listed from one through 19.

“Public service announcement: the ‘death of slim shady’ is a conceptual album, therefore, if you listen to songs out of order they might not make sense,” he tweeted. “Enjoy.”

Eminem is seeking his 10th consecutive solo album to land at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The two singles he delivered leading into the project both crashed the Billboard Hot 100 party. “Houdini” debuted at No. 2 for Em’s highest charting hit of the decade, while “Tobey” cracked the chart at No. 95.

The Death of Slim Shady is Em’s first project since 2020’s Music to Be Murdered By. Fittingly, his frequent collaborator and close friend Dr. Dre was the one to spill the beans about Eminem’s new album back in March during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.

“Let me tell you something, let me explain something to you right now: Eminem is working on his own album which is coming out this year,” Dre said. “And I actually talked to him and he said it was OK for me to make that announcement right here on this show. So he has an album coming out, I’ve got songs on it and it’s fire. I’m actually gonna hear the entire album for the first time for tomorrow.”
