Eminem‘s latest LP The Death of Slim Shady is out now!
The 51-year-old rapper announced the album back in April, just before performing at the 2024 NFL Draft, and marks his first in four years.
Featured on the new album are the likes of White Gold, Skylar Grey, Big Sean and more.
Jelly Roll joins Eminem on the album closer, “Somebody Save Me,” which features lyrics of the rapper apologizing to his three children – Hailie, Alaina and Stevie – for his history of not putting them first.

“I don’t even deserve the father title/ Hailie, I’m so sorry/ I know I wasn’t there for your first guitar recital,” Eminem raps in the track. “Alaina, sorry that you had to hear me fall in the bathroom … Stevie, I’m sorry, I missed you grow up and I didn’t get to be the dad I wanted to be to you.”
The song starts with a recording of the rapper shrugging off a pleading Alaina, who wants him to go eat with her.
In the chorus, Jelly Roll sings, “Somebody save me / Me from myself? / I’ve spent so long livin’ in hell / They say my lifestyle / Is bad for my health / It’s the only thing that seems to help.”
Also on the album are disses to several celebrities, including Megan Thee Stallion, Diddy, Kanye West and more.
In “Fuel,” Eminem seems to reference the multiple recent allegations against Diddy.
“I’m like a R-A-P-E-R / Got so many S-As, S-As,” he says. “Wait, he didn’t just spell the word ‘rapper’ and leave out a P, did he?”
“Next idiot that ask me is gettin’ his ass beat / Worst than Diddy did,” Eminem adds on “Antichrist.” “But on the real, though / She prolly ran out the room with his f–kin’ dildo / He try to field goal punt her, she said to chill (no) / Now put it back in my ass and get the steel toe.”
Also mentioned in “Antichrist” are previously mentioned Kanye and Megan, Kim Kardashian, Nas, GZA, Biggie Smalls, RZA, Nicki Minaj, Ben Affleck, Seth Green, Jeffrey Epstein, Kurt Cobain, Brian from Family Guy and Caitlyn Jenner.
Eminem seemingly mentioned Diddy once again on the song, “Bad One,” which features rapper White Gold, and him allegedly blowing up Kid Cudi‘s car.
“I should go back to those sleeping aids / Because I’m so stuck in my evil ways / Then I’m f–ked either way,” he raps. “The people still seem to think they want the old me ‘til they get him / Got ’em up in arms like monkey bars / The f–king bomb with the puffy on / I’m blowing up for Kid Cudi’s car / in front of his house where all his buddies are.”
