Good morning. I’m Leila Fadel. The real Slim Shady may be sitting down for good. Eminem released a teaser for a new album with an ominous title – “The Death Of Slim Shady.” The rapper made the reveal during the NFL draft, which was held in his hometown of Detroit this year. The album will be Slim’s 12th, but will it be Eminem’s alter ego’s last? As with many things in life, that part is unclear. The album comes out this summer, though.
It’s MORNING EDITION.
