Eminem has finally shared the official tracklist for his forthcoming greatest hits album Curtain Call 2. The compilation serves as the sequel to Curtain Call: The Hits, which was released in 2005 with songs such as “My Name Is,” “The Way I Am” and the Academy Award-winning “Lose Yourself.”
According to Slim Shady’s tweet, “Lucky You” featuring Joyner Lucas, “Love The Way You Lie” with Rihanna, the 50 Cent and Dr. Dre-assisted “Crack A Bottle” and the Yelawolf collab “Best Friend” are among the 16 tracks on the project. As promised, a 2009 collaboration with 50 Cent called “Is This Love” is included on the album as well as the recently released singles “The King & I” with CeeLo and “From The D To The LBC” with Snoop Dogg.
Curtain Call 2 includes music from all Eminem projects from 2009’s Relapse forward, including side projects, guest appearances, film soundtrack songs and selections from his solo albums. To coincide with the upcoming release, Slim Shady is currently selling merch capsules that include arcade-themed t-shirts, CD box sets, cassette tapes and autographed orange vinyl.

Hyping the album even further, Eminem “unlocked” a video for the aforementioned single “Crack A Bottle” on Monday (August 1). The video was initially released in 2009 in support of Relapse, Eminem’s sixth studio album, his first project since getting sober in 2008.
Curtain Call: The Hits is one the longest-running rap album in Billboard history. In fact, it was also one of the best-selling albums of 2021.
According to HITS Daily Double, Curtain Call: The Hits landed at No. 50 with over 673,000 total album-equivalent units sold that year. That’s more than other major 2021 rap releases, including Tyler, The Creator’s CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST, Nas’ King’s Disease II, Young Thug’s Punk, NBA YoungBoy’s Sincerely, Kentrell and Migos’ Culture III.
Eminem is the goat. We about to be number 1 A G A I N
We huh? We white kids????
Music doesn’t discriminate bro,’ it infects, everyone, Any colour Any creed let everybody celebrate this legend….s n a p…..
It’s sad to say I don’t like ANY of these songs. It really os true that the back end of his career has been pretty bad. If he had started out in the mid 200s with all of this, and none of his original work, he’d be looked at as another popular yourube rapper. But his OG stuff was incredible.
I agree. On kamikaze and MTBMB Deluxe there were a few songs i liked though: the ringer, fall, alfreds theme, discombobulated and premonition. But thats nothing compared to full albums being absolutely crazy from start to finish like early in his career..
Yeah, I’m glad you enjoy a few songs at least. I liked a couple from MMLP2, but after that nothing at all. Can’t say I’m a fan of many “fast” rappers, though I’m a big Big Pun fan, kind of like some RA. But yeah, Eminem from 97 to 2004 or so we insane. Dude could’ve destroyed anyone on wax.
How do u not not like best friend? One of his greatest verses of all time. I agree some of these songs are wack, but best friend showcases why he is one of the greatest
Put all the top streaming songs on one album to go diamond again lol. Getting paid twice for the same songs? Wonder how that works.
its called the “greatest hits” for a reason dummy
No shit? Lol… just curious to know how much more money artist make when releasing music that’s already out
Calling this a disappointment is way too light
Surprised he didn’t add Wee Wee?
of uckin course it as 2 fuckin much 2 expect/ask him include “riders”/”folisg pride”//”best friend””
Was really hoping for Don’t Front…
Ooooo man that would’ve been awesome
-“bad meets evil” feat. Royce off the slim shady LP.
– “Nuttin to do” feat Royce
– “Rock Bottom”
– literally EVERYTHING off the MMLP!
And so many more…ugh c’mon Em, show this new generation why you’re considered one of the GOATS with them OLD CLASSICS!!!
This second greatest hits is obviously dedicated to everything he dropped after 2005 bro. He’s got 9 projects after 05 so why would he put stuff from before that on this new album?
True!
“One of the longest running rap albums” … no it’s THE longest running rap album
Is nobody paying attention to the fact he’s releasing this with Farewell as the last track on the album? Dude is done mate!!!
He’s never stopping. This is literally all he knows. Just think of spending every day trying to rhyme shit. You get locked into that world forever like a merry go round. “Signed now I’ll spit it to the grave! Real enough to rile you up. Want me to rip it I can flip it any style you want”
Why he don’t put anything from the re up on there?
Some odd choices in there. You’re Never Over obviously means a lot to Em personally but it’s not one of the better tracks from Recovery. Same goes for Medicine Man. Farewell is easily the worst song from MTBMB, title aside I have no idea why that would even be in there.I can think of so many better replacements (Deja Vu, I Will, The Ringer, No Apologies, Don’t Front, Groundhog Day). We Made You would have been more worthy than Berzerk and I don’t like either song. The tracklist sells him short, there’s a lot of killer tracks that could have been used to make up a third disc full of album only cuts and features.
This is not a album more a greatest hit list I have ever album eminem has done so calling this this album is wrong and a scam
New album means new songs not a repeat off song off other albums I think that’s how new album work how can you call it curtain call 2 make know sence to me the first album was a classic and now just few that album out
