Eminem released Curtain Call: The Hits in 2005, a compilation of the diamond-selling rapper’s biggest songs, including “The Way I Am,” “My Name Is,” “Guilty Conscience” and “Without Me.” As of 2017, it’s the longest-running rap album in Billboard 200 history.
Seventeen years after its arrival, Eminem has secured his spot as one of the most successful artists of all time. On Monday (July 11), Slim Shady announced another greatest hits album, the aptly titled Curtain Call 2.
According to a press release, 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.
The project follows the release of the inaugural single “From The D 2 The LBC” featuring Snoop Dogg as well as “The King & I” with CeeLo Green.
Eminem has released 11 solo albums over the years, 12 if Music To Be Murdered By: Side B is included. The 49-year-old MC continues to sell albums at an alarming rate decades into his career. For example, 2020’s Music To Be Murdered By debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with over 279,000 total album-equivalent units sold in its opening week.
Overall, Marshall Mathers has an estimated worldwide sales of over 220 million records with 10 chart-topping albums, which all consecutively debuted at No 1., making him the first artist to achieve this.

In addition to the standard release of Curtain Call 2, a limited edition box set and autographed vinyl will be available on Eminem’s official website. The album is scheduled to arrive on August 5.
And that’s the time frame where eminem fell off hard.
The world and music industry disagrees with you but go off
Did he go to the old master o album cover artist? That shits hilarious
It’s the top if a pin ball machine
Perfect. Now we can be like “eminem was a top 5 emcee, hands down. Now, we’re talking curtain call 1 Era, certainly not curtain call 2!”. It’ll be a good way to define his prime VS his still popular, but not very special past prime days.
Yeaaaaa…. I’ll take MTBMB AND RECOVERY over any old Em album, and I’ve been listening since infinite. How? Idk. His ability to rap, lyrics, song creation… Everything has evolved since back then. Only album on their level is Eminem Show and MMLP.
Liar
RECOVERY WAS NOT A GOOD ALBUM. TOO STERILE AND VH1.
What album before Recovery, was as lyrical as recovery? I’ll pick 1 song off recovery that was more lyrical than his other albums. You don’t like his songs on the album, that’s cool. I didn’t like his song creations on SSLP and relapse but that’s just my preference.
Recovery to me was him, slightly, maturing and reaching a new phase in his career. I know many Em fans don’t like post Recovery Em. It’s like Jay-Z’s blueprint album compared to Reasonable doubt. The rawness of old Em was what most of us became a fan of… But I like the evolution of Em more.
What is the point of a greatest hits album these days? At all? Just see the track list and play those songs in the same order on YouTube or Spotify or whatever? I don’t get how these sell at all.
This better have atleast 3 new songs
It will, but two of them we’ve already heard.
Than it’s not new,the snoop and cee lo joints have their own projects,curtain call had 3 real new songs so I would be really dissatisfied at shady if his really gonna put these 2 on there and just one extra new,be so cool if he could put old-new stuff like that mmlp 20 anniversary joint
Eminem show 20th anniversary*
Eminem is the GOAT
Not alarming at all he’s a goat for a reason
15 year old wig gas everywhere just creamed their pants
maybe in 1999. no one is looking out for this guy anymore. is he a one of the greats? yeah, his last good album with the one with royce in 2011
The king and i is terrible
Dope overall! I did feel like Snoop didn’t really fit on this. Em went off as usual, gotta give him credit. Royce and Crooked would have been perfect for this feature.
He ain’t never gonna fall off
Oh he fell off long ago… way off!!!
Now you sound like CNN. There’s reaction channels dedicated to breaking down dudes flows. I stopped listening to other rappers for the most part unless Eminem was featured on it. His word play is impeccable and anyone that says otherwise does not know hip-hop and is just making noise.
If there is a god we will get Fack 2
It’s the meth poot fest of the year.. a 50 year old has been trying to rap “ the goof troop is all giddy” lame. .,
Another satanic sheep beholden to the Lucifarian music industry! Just like drake and gay z. None of these clowns would have made it if they didn’t sell they soul and take it up the rear from music execs. Follow Christ.
regardless how successful this dude is, i never fucked with Em. dudes to depressing
You never fucked with him but he’s depressing? Why did you even comment? Your two cents made no sense.
RELASPE 2 CONFIRMED!!!
DETOX CONFIRMED!!!!
