New Eminem album on the way in 2024
Dr Dre has revealed Eminem's new album has "fire" songs on it...
Good news for Eminem fans. The rapper is set to release his first album in four years.
His close friend and Grammy award-winning producer, Andre 'Dr Dre' Young, spilled the beans during an interview on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live'.
According to Dr Dre, the album will likely be released sometime in 2024.
"Eminem is working on his own album which is coming out this year. I actually talked to him and he said it was okay for me to make that announcement right here on this show," the 59-year-old said on Tuesday.
Dr Dre suggested that the album was already completed.
"I've got songs on it and it's fire. I’m actually going to hear the entire album for the first time tomorrow and 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 going to hear it and he’s putting out an album this year," he said.

Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg are also working on an album called, 'Missionary'.
The collaboration comes 30 years after Dr Dre worked on Snoop Dogg's debut studio album, 'Doggystyle'.
The album does not have a release date as yet.
"The first album I've done with Snoop was in 1993, and it's the only album I've ever produced on Snoop. So now, believe it or not, we're getting together again, and we're almost done with the album. The first album was called 'Doggystyle'. So, we decided to flip it and call this one 'Missionary'," he told Jimmy.
Mixing on the album is set to begin in mid-April. 50 Cent is one of the featured artists. However, it is still unclear if Eminem will feature.
