Eminem, the rap superstar who needs no introduction, has returned to the spotlight with his electrifying new single, 'Houdini.'

Released as the lead track from his upcoming 12th album, 'The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce),' the song is already making waves in the music industry.



 

The accompanying music video for 'Houdini' is a star-studded affair, featuring appearances from hip-hop legends like Dr Dre and 50 Cent, as well as comedians Shane Gillis and Pete Davidson.

In a clever nod to his own legacy, Eminem even resurrects his iconic persona from the early 2000s, setting the stage for an epic showdown between past and present.

But it's not just the celebrity cameos that have fans buzzing – Eminem's lyrics are as sharp and controversial as ever.

In one verse, he addressed the incident involving Megan Thee Stallion where she was shot in the foot by Canadian rapper Tory Lanez.

"If I was to ask for Megan Thee Stallion if she would collab with me / Would I really have a shot at a feat? I don't know, but I'm glad to be, back," he sings.

And in true Slim Shady fashion, he doesn't hold back when it comes to calling out his own children and longtime manager Paul Rosenberg.

"Cancel me, what? Okay, that's it, go ahead Paul, quit / Snake ass prick, you male cross dresser, fake ass b--ch / And I'll probably get shit for that (watch) / But you can all suck my d--k, in fact, f--k them / F--k Dre, f--k Jimmy, f--k me, f--k you / F--k my own kids, they’re brats (f--k 'em) / They can screw off, them and you all (yeah) / You too, Paul, got two balls, big as RuPaul's."

Recently, the rapper shared a reel with magician David Blaine promoting his upcoming single revealing, "Well for my last trick, I'm going to make my career disappear."

The release of 'Houdini' comes hot on the heels of Eminem's recent antics, including a fake obituary in the Detroit Free Press bidding farewell to his alter ego Slim Shady.
