Recently wrapping up his The Monster Tour with Rihanna, Eminem may be on his way toward creating a new album, some speculate.
While nothing is set in stone and details are slim, Eminem has recently taken to video and social media, mentioning what could be a new project. The Detroit native released a trailer for a film called “The Equalizer” on Friday (August 22) and at the end of it, his next song, “Guts Over Fear,” was announced and apparently it will appear on a project called Shady XV. The trailer also may have revealed when Shady XV, whatever the project may be, is slated for release. Beside the title, “Black Friday” was mentioned, which may suggest the album is looking at a November drop date.
Several, including M Live and Rap-Up, have reported that Shady XV could be the name of an Eminem album.

Eminem also took to Twitter with the same hashtag. His manager, Paul Rosenberg, also tweeted “Shady XV” in June. 2014 marks the 15-year anniversary of Eminem’s second studio album, The Slim Shady LP. Eminem’s last album release was a sequel to his third album, The Marshall Mathers LP. The Marshall Mathers LP 2 was released on November 5, 2013.
