Dr. Dre announced during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! that Eminem will be releasing a new album sometime this year. Although the album has yet to receive a title or release date, Dre confirmed that he has already produced several tracks for the record. Dre revealed, “I’m actually gonna hear the entire album for the first time tomorrow. He holds his music close to his chest, so I haven’t heard everything. I haven’t even heard everything complete that I’ve done, but I’m gonna hear it, and he’s putting out an album this year.”
Fans are eagerly anticipating the upcoming album, which will be Eminem’s first since last year’s Music To Be Murdered By.
