Eminem has officially announced the release of an extended edition of his latest album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grce), now entitled Mourner's Edition. This new iteration will feature four additional tracks, including a skit, as well as high-profile collaborations. One of the standout tracks is titled "Fuel," which boasts contributions from artists Westside Boogie, Gripp, and Kyrie & Luka, featuring 2 Chainz.
Earlier this month, Eminem generated buzz around the album by teasing it with a visual showcasing an unusual encounter with The Alchemist at a convenience store. The anticipation from fans has been palpable, building excitement for this extended release.
The original version of The Death of Slim Shady experienced significant commercial success, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. In its first week, the album sold 281,000 equivalent album units, marking Eminem's 11th No. 1 album. This achievement ties him with notable figures such as Bruce Springsteen, Barbra Streisand, and Ye for the fifth-most No. 1 albums in history.
Additionally, the album made waves by setting a record for the largest sales week for a rap album in 2024 and recording the second-largest sales week for any digital album this year, coming in just behind Taylor Swift. Fans can access Mourner's Edition for streaming on major platforms like Spotify and Apple Music. For more details, check out Hypebeast.
