Eminem’s alter ego Slim Shady has been around since the start of his career, but it seems he’s getting ready to kill him off. The Grammy-winning rapper announced the release of his next studio album with the cryptic title The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grace).

Eminem teased the release of his new album during the NFL Draft in Detroit, where he shared a short video that sees a true crime reporter discussing the events that led to the murder of Slim Shady

“Through his complex and oft-criticized, tongue-twisting rhymes, the anti-hero known as Slim Shady has had no shortage of enemies. The same rude lyrics and controversial antics may have ultimately led to his demise,” says the reporter in the video.

Eminem’s long-time collaborator 50 Cent also makes a cameo, saying that Slim Shady is not a friend, but a psychopath. Eminem makes a brief appearance at the end of the video, claiming “I knew it was only a matter of time for Slim.”

The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grace) will be Eminem’s first studio album since Music to Be Murdered By in 2020. It debuted atop the Billboard 200, making him the first artist with ten consecutive No. 1 albums in the US, and produced singles “Darkness”, “Godzilla” ft. Juice Wrld, and “Those Kinda Nights” ft. Ed Sheeran.

Kid Cudi blew the Coachella audience away with his epic performance, but it will take some time before he hits the stage again. The Grammy-winning rapper decided to cancel his upcoming tour after breaking his foot at Coachella because the recovery will take longer than expected.

Kid Cudi took to social media to announce he’s heading to surgery for a broken calcaneus following his Coachella performance, and he’s canceling his tour dates to focus on recovery.

“We have to cancel the tour so I can focus on getting better to be out there in top shape to rage with you all. There’s just no way I can bounce back in time to give 100%. The injury is much more serious than I thought,” he wrote in a statement on social media.

The rapper thanked his fans for their endless love and support and said he’ll be back with new dates as soon as possible because he can’t wait to be back on the road.

Kid Cudi was supposed to embark on Insano: Engage the Rage World Tour in support of his latest studio album Insano, which came out on January 12. It produced singles “Porsche Topless” and “At the Party” ft. Pharrell Williams and Travis Scott, and its sequel Insano (Nitro Mega) hit the shelves on February 23.

Imagine Dragons teased their next era with their latest single “Eyes Closed”, and they finally made things official! The band’s sixth studio album Loom is hitting the shelves this June, and they’ll celebrate its release with a massive tour across North America.

Imagine Dragons made an epic comeback with the genre-defying single “Eyes Closed” earlier this month – and there’s more where that came from! They officially announced the release of their sixth studio album Loom, which will be released on June 28 and feature a total of ten songs.

Imagine Dragons also shared a cover of their new album, which perfectly sums up its themes, according to the band’s frontman Dan Reynolds.

“You can’t really tell if it’s a sunset or a sunrise, and then there are two people kind of separated standing in front of it. That really kind of sums it up thematically when I listen to it, Is the beginning of something new, or is this the end of something?” Reynolds told The Associated Press.

Imagine Dragons are planning to celebrate the release of Loom by taking it on the road this summer. Their biggest North American headlining tour to date will kick off in Camden, NJ on June 20, and they’re planning to wrap it up with a concert at Los Angeles’ iconic Hollywood Bowl on October 22.

After a lot of anticipation, Taylor Swift finally dropped her album The Tortured Poets Department this Friday, but this wasn’t the only new release that caught our eye. Check out our list of the best new songs of the week to discover new music by Pearl Jam, Hozier, and Kings of Lion.

No album this week created more commotion than Taylor Swift’s Tortured Poets and its companion piece The Anthology. She’s given us 16 new songs on the standard edition and 31 in total, but “So Long, London” is definitely her strongest new release.

This Friday was pretty slow for new releases because most artists wanted to avoid competing with Swift. That didn’t stop Pearl Jam from sharing their long-awaited album Dark Matter, which produced several amazing songs, including “Wreckage”.

The lack of major releases helped our favorite indie and international artists shine, and make it to our list of the best new songs of the week. Hozier’s “Why Would You Be Loved” is definitely worth listening to on repeat, and so are the latest singles by Rachel Chinouriri, Debbii Dawson, Kings of Leon, Kate Nash, and more.

Taylor Swift – “So Long, London”

Hozier – “Why Would You Be Loved”

Pearl Jam – “Wreckage”

Debbii Dawson – “Happy World”

Rachel Chinouriri – “It Is What It Is”

Sia – “Fame Won’t Love You” (feat. Paris Hilton)

Kings Of Leon – “Nothing To Do”

Cigarettes After S-x – “Dark Vacay”

Kate Nash – “Space Odyssey 2001”

Kygo, Zak Abel – “For Life” ft. Nile Rodgers

Donald Glover has made a few pretty cryptic comments about retiring from music in recent years, and it seems he’s making it official. The five-time Grammy winner recently teased the release of two new Childish Gambino albums, one of which will be his last.

Glover recently took to social media to debut some new music, and described his Instagram live as “a rollout dummy”. He played three new tracks, including the previously leaked “Human Sacrifice” and a full version of “Little Foot Big Foot”, expected to be featured on his next album Atavista, an updated version of 3.15.20.

He also announced the release of its follow-up, which he described as “the final Childish Gambino album, a soundtrack for the fans.” It will be connected to his next film Bando Stone & The New World, set to be released this summer.

Glover dropped hints about retiring the Childish Gambino act on several occasions over the years, and he previously told HuffPost that he’s considering ending his music career because it doesn’t feel “necessary” anymore.

“There’s nothing worse than like a third sequel, like a third movie and we’re like, ‘again?’ You know, I like it when something’s good and when it comes back there’s a reason to come back, there’s a reason to do that,” Glover told HuffPost.

It’s already been four years since the release of Deftones’ last album, but its follow-up seems to be just around the corner. The frontman Chino Moreno discussed their plans for the future at Coachella and revealed they have a whole new album already recorded.

Deftones hit the Outdoor Theatre stage at Coachella this past weekend, and Moreno dropped hints about their new music while chatting with KROQ.

“We have a whole record recorded all musically. And it’s pretty much my job right now to finish up the vocals… We’re not really in a rush. We want it to be great. I think that’s most important. But it is coming, and, yeah – it’s really good,” said Moreno.

Despite already finishing up most of the album, Moreno said they still don’t have “a definite timeframe” for the album’s release. He also said they’re really excited about what they’ve been working on and described their new sound as “invigorated”.

Deftones haven’t dropped a new album since Ohms in 2020, which produced singles “Ohms”, “Genesis”, and “Ceremony”. It was met with critical acclaim and received a nomination for best rock performance at the 64th Annual Grammy Awards. It debuted at No. 5 in both the UK and the US and hit the top ten in several countries around the world.

Future, Metro Boomin, and Kendrick Lamar created quite a splash with “Like That”, and its chart domination is far from over. The trio’s latest collaboration returned to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for its third consecutive week on top.

“Like That” attracted 40 million streams, 14 million radio airplay audience impressions, and sold 3,000 units during its latest week on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. This song became Future and Lamar’s third No. 1 single and Metro Boomin’s first as a billed recording artist when it initially debuted atop the chart.

“Like That” was released as one of the songs from Future and Metro Boomin’s collaborative album We Don’t Trust You, which hit the shelves on March 26. Its follow-up We Still Don’t Trust You was released in less than a month, on April 12, and it’s projected to hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, just like its predecessor.

It was also a huge week for Hozier’s “Too Sweet”, which climbed to No. 2 to match his previous peak on the Hot 100 chart with his breakout hit “Take Me To Church”. J. Cole’s “7 Minute Drill” was the highest debut of the week at No. 6 after being released as a part of his new mixtape Might Delete Later.

Jon Bon Jovi delivered many unforgettable live performances over the years, but those days may be behind him. The Bon Jovi frontman said he might never sing live again if he can’t be the guy that he once was.

Jon Bon Jovi recently opened up about his struggle to sing live after undergoing surgery on his vocal cords in 2022 in a conversation with The Sunday Times. His voice hasn’t been the same ever since, and he said that he’s “done” performing live if he can’t go back to his old self, while also adding he’s “good with that”.

This isn’t the first time he dropped hints about his potential retirement from touring. The rock legend previously told The Times there’s a huge difference between performing in a studio and going out on the road.

“We have just recorded a new album. I sing in vocal therapy every day. But I want to perform for two and a half hours a night, four nights a week – and I know how good I can be, so if I can’t be that guy… put it this way, I don’t ever need to be the fat Elvis,” said Bon Jovi.

Despite not planning to tour anytime soon, the members of Bon Jovi are getting ready to give their fans some new music. The band’s next album Forever will be released on June 7 via Island.

April is shaping up to be a great month for new music, and this week has given us a long list of amazing new songs. Some of them made it to our list of the best songs of the week, starting with new tracks by Dua Lipa, Maggie Rogers, Girl in Red, and Tinashe.

Dua Lipa’s “Illusion” is definitely the week’s most talked-about new track, and it deserves all the attention coming its way. It’s the third single from her new album Radical Optimism, and it perfectly captures its nostalgic, Britpop-inspired sound.

This week also marked the release of Metro Boomin and Future’s second collaborative album We Still Don’t Trust You, and its title track made it to our list. Speaking of new albums, Maggie Rogers and Girl in Red made a comeback with their latest LPs this week and truly impressed us with their new sound.

It was a great week for female artists overall, and the songs that made the cut cover a wide range of different genres. In addition to Maggie Rogers and Girl in Red representing alternative pop-rock, R&B artists Chlöe, Tinashe, and Willow also made it to our list alongside the rising country star Tanner Adell.

Dua Lipa – “Illusion”

Linkin Park – “QWERTY”

Maggie Rogers – “The Kill”

Girl in Red – “I’m Back”

Future, Metro Boomin – “We Still Don’t Trust You”

WILLOW – “Big Feelings”

Suki Waterhouse – “My Fun”

Donald Glover has made a few pretty cryptic comments about retiring from music in recent years, and it seems he’s making it official. The five-time Grammy winner recently teased the release of two new Childish Gambino albums, one of which will be his last.

Glover recently took to social media to debut some new music, and described his Instagram live as “a rollout dummy”. He played three new tracks, including the previously leaked “Human Sacrifice” and a full version of “Little Foot Big Foot”, expected to be featured on his next album Atavista, an updated version of 3.15.20.

He also announced the release of its follow-up, which he described as “the final Childish Gambino album, a soundtrack for the fans.” It will be connected to his next film Bando Stone & The New World, set to be released this summer.

Glover dropped hints about retiring the Childish Gambino act on several occasions over the years, and he previously told HuffPost that he’s considering ending his music career because it doesn’t feel “necessary” anymore.

“There’s nothing worse than like a third sequel, like a third movie and we’re like, ‘again?’ You know, I like it when something’s good and when it comes back there’s a reason to come back, there’s a reason to do that,” Glover told HuffPost.

It’s already been four years since the release of Deftones’ last album, but its follow-up seems to be just around the corner. The frontman Chino Moreno discussed their plans for the future at Coachella and revealed they have a whole new album already recorded.

Deftones hit the Outdoor Theatre stage at Coachella this past weekend, and Moreno dropped hints about their new music while chatting with KROQ.

“We have a whole record recorded all musically. And it’s pretty much my job right now to finish up the vocals… We’re not really in a rush. We want it to be great. I think that’s most important. But it is coming, and, yeah – it’s really good,” said Moreno.

Despite already finishing up most of the album, Moreno said they still don’t have “a definite timeframe” for the album’s release. He also said they’re really excited about what they’ve been working on and described their new sound as “invigorated”.

Deftones haven’t dropped a new album since Ohms in 2020, which produced singles “Ohms”, “Genesis”, and “Ceremony”. It was met with critical acclaim and received a nomination for best rock performance at the 64th Annual Grammy Awards. It debuted at No. 5 in both the UK and the US and hit the top ten in several countries around the world.

Future, Metro Boomin, and Kendrick Lamar created quite a splash with “Like That”, and its chart domination is far from over. The trio’s latest collaboration returned to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for its third consecutive week on top.

“Like That” attracted 40 million streams, 14 million radio airplay audience impressions, and sold 3,000 units during its latest week on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. This song became Future and Lamar’s third No. 1 single and Metro Boomin’s first as a billed recording artist when it initially debuted atop the chart.

“Like That” was released as one of the songs from Future and Metro Boomin’s collaborative album We Don’t Trust You, which hit the shelves on March 26. Its follow-up We Still Don’t Trust You was released in less than a month, on April 12, and it’s projected to hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, just like its predecessor.

It was also a huge week for Hozier’s “Too Sweet”, which climbed to No. 2 to match his previous peak on the Hot 100 chart with his breakout hit “Take Me To Church”. J. Cole’s “7 Minute Drill” was the highest debut of the week at No. 6 after being released as a part of his new mixtape Might Delete Later.

Jon Bon Jovi delivered many unforgettable live performances over the years, but those days may be behind him. The Bon Jovi frontman said he might never sing live again if he can’t be the guy that he once was.

Jon Bon Jovi recently opened up about his struggle to sing live after undergoing surgery on his vocal cords in 2022 in a conversation with The Sunday Times. His voice hasn’t been the same ever since, and he said that he’s “done” performing live if he can’t go back to his old self, while also adding he’s “good with that”.

This isn’t the first time he dropped hints about his potential retirement from touring. The rock legend previously told The Times there’s a huge difference between performing in a studio and going out on the road.

“We have just recorded a new album. I sing in vocal therapy every day. But I want to perform for two and a half hours a night, four nights a week – and I know how good I can be, so if I can’t be that guy… put it this way, I don’t ever need to be the fat Elvis,” said Bon Jovi.

Despite not planning to tour anytime soon, the members of Bon Jovi are getting ready to give their fans some new music. The band’s next album Forever will be released on June 7 via Island.

It was a great week for female artists overall, and the songs that made the cut cover a wide range of different genres.
