Eminem will release a new album this year, Dr. Dre confirmed. The music producer revealed that the rapper will drop his first studio album for four years - a follow up to 2020's “Music to be Murdered By” - and Dre admitted he has some songs on the record. He told Jimmy Kimmel: “Let me explain something to you right now. Eminem is working on his own album which is coming out this year and I actually talked to him and he said it was OK for me to make that announcement right here on this show. I've got songs on it and it's fire. I'm actually going to 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."
