Less than a month ago, Eminem announced his upcoming 12th studio album, “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce),” the follow-up to his 2020 project “Music to Be Murdered By.”
He has now revealed that the album’s lead single, “Houdini,” is set to drop tomorrow. Despite some fans speculating it might be a full album, it is indeed just a single.

A few days ago, Eminem shared a teaser on social media with the caption, “Please do not try this at home. Or anywhere else.”
In the video, Eminem FaceTimed with magician David Blaine, asking for his help with a stunt. “I was wondering, how far can we go with this magic? Like, can we do a stunt or something?” Eminem asked. Blaine then drank a glass of wine and bit off the rim of the glass.
Eminem concluded the conversation by saying, “Well, for my last trick, I’m going to make my career disappear,” before ending the call.
Conor McGregor showed his support for Eminem by sharing the video clip on his Instagram story, indicating his excitement for the new release. McGregor’s endorsement adds to the buzz surrounding “Houdini.”
