There have been rumblings of a surprise Eminem album for a couple of months.
It happened last night, with the drop of Em's 11th album Music To Be Murdered By.
It continues a late-career run of three albums in a little more than three years for Shady. While the first, Revival, wasn't well-received the second, Kamikaze, was.
So far, Music To Be Murdered By is being received more like Kamikaze than like Revival. Check some of the reactions.
Eminem is now the first and only artist in history to be cancelled in 4 different decades

I wonder if all the Ariana Grande stans tweeting #EminemIsOverParty realise that the reason they’re even called Stans is because of that Eminem song?

Wow. Eminem really went all out spreading the message to use your voice if you don’t like what’s happening in America. Great track with an amazing message. Also shoutout to @Royceda59 for the production. The beat fits perfectly with the mood and message of the song pic.twitter.com/cN4CqbyyES

Super blown away by this album. I honestly never saw this coming from Em at this stage. He delivered with perfection. Bouncy and dope.

the title and cover art for eminem's new album ‘music to be murdered by’ were modeled after iconic filmmaker alfred hitchcock's 1958 album of the same name https://t.co/36kV2Edzik pic.twitter.com/HmrhB29EJv
