In true Eminem fashion, the rapper has revealed that he will be dropping the Expanded Mourner's Edition of his latest album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce), which came out in July, this Friday, September 13, 2024. The announcement, made online via X in a cinematic teaser, has captured the world's attention.
In the ominous clip, Eminem can be seen walking into a gas station convenience store and grabbing a milk carton from the refrigerator. He drops it, and the carton reveals a poster of a missing person on the other side. The missing person? Eminem's alter ego, Slim Shady. He exits the store as producer Alchemist shouts behind him, telling him never to return in a thick New York accent, as Somebody Save Me blares in the background.

Eminem captioned the post:
“MISSING: SLIM SHADY Have you seen him #TheDeathOfSlimShady Expanded Mourner’s Edition drops this Friday the 13th…”
Thus far, it is unclear if fans will be getting any additional tracks different from what was originally released and whether any special guests will be joining him. However, given his cameo in the trailer, Alchemist-produced tracks may be likely. In July, the rapper came out with singles like Houdini, Tobey, and Somebody Save Me.
