Eminem hits HUGE UK milestone and draws level with David Bowie and U2 after release of The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grace) album

As a dedicated fan of Eminem, I cannot contain my excitement over his latest studio album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grace), which has taken the music world by storm. This iconic rapper continues to defy expectations and push boundaries with every new release.


On a Friday night, The Death of Slim Shady by Eminem, as his eleventh studio album, took over the top position, displacing Kasabian from it.

As a die-hard fan of Eminem, Marshall Mathers’ true identity, I can’t contain my excitement when I learned that over 45,000 copies of his latest album were sold in just one week! What an incredible achievement!

Based on data from the Official Charts Company, the 51-year-old artist now holds the same number (11) of chart-leading albums as David Bowie and U2.

In 1999, Eminem kicked off his remarkable chart achievements with the debut of The Slim Shady LP. This album introduced the massive hit “My Name Is” to the world.

The most recent album from him, featuring the hit single “Houdini,” is his first new studio release in four years. Previously, he put out an album titled “Music To Be Murdered By,” which came with a deluxe edition named “Side B.”

The rapper has achieved eleven UK chart-topping albums and eleven number one singles. Some of these hits feature collaborations, such as Stan with singer Dido, and Lose Yourself.

The huge news comes after Eminem told fans how they should listen to the new album.

On X, previously known as Twitter, he advised: “FYI (for your information): Slim Shady’s supposed demise in the ‘death of slim shady’ album is a figurative concept. So, listening to the tracks randomly may leave you puzzled. Have a great time!”

In a sequential listen, the album appears to narrate the tale of Eminem grappling with his inner antagonist, Slim Shady, ultimately laying him to rest – aligning with its moniker.

Some devoted followers of the rapper argue that to truly grasp the meaning behind The Death of Slim Shady, one should listen to it in reverse order.

I’ve joined the buzz on social media, pondering over the theory that the new album from Slim Shady isn’t about his demise but rather a rebirth and return to life.

As a long-time fan of Eminem’s music, I’ve listened to his albums numerous times and have always been intrigued by the stories he tells through his lyrics. Recently, while revisiting his eighth studio album “Relapse,” I came across an interesting theory about the last song on the album, “So Far… (Interlude)” also known as “Somebody Save Me.” Some listeners believe that this song, if heard first before the rest of the album, could be interpreted as a foreshadowing of Eminem’s ‘death.’

Additionally, they hold the view that the track “Renaissance” at the end of the album, when played in reverse order, symbolizes a renewal for Slim Shady.

Supporters of the renowned rap artist eagerly anticipate this news as potential evidence that Eminem, aka Slim Shady, continues to create new music.

As an obsessed fan, I was absolutely convinced that the rapper’s 11th studio album would be his swan song, his final hurrah in the music world. But boy, was I wrong! This new development is a complete game-changer. Instead of waving goodbye to his musical career, it seems he’s gearing up for more amazing tunes. What a thrilling turn of events!

In another part of The Death Of Slim Shady album, the song “Temporary” particularly touches fans’ hearts, as it was penned down for Eminem’s daughter, Hailie Jade Scott.

I’m committed to supporting Hailie through the difficult times when her father is no longer with us. In his absence, I will act as her guardian angel, fulfilling the promise made in his writing.

It features heartwarming interactions between Eminem and his daughter when she was just a toddler.

I, a loving and devoted dad to my precious little girl, engage in joyful activities with her and request a sweet peck on the cheek. At times, I gently correct her when she unintentionally lets out an inappropriate word.

Hailie, age 28, is now a married woman and is the wife to the influencer, Evan McClintock.

Many individuals inquire of me, “Aren’t you fearful of death, Eminem?” I reply. In reality, what truly terrifies me is the thought of being unable to express all the things I wish to convey to you once I’m gone. Thus, this song is dedicated to Hailie for when that unfortunate day arrives.

In the lyrics, Eminem urges his daughter to ‘dry’ her tears and promises to forever watch over her.

I understand the desire to rephrase the given text while maintaining a conversational and easy-to-read tone. Here’s one way of paraphrasing it:

As a dedicated follower, I urge you to take care of Eleana, Stevie, and Uncle Nate. I know I’ve been your source of strength in the past, and I am still here for you. But let me tell you, parting ways is never an easy feat. So why are you weeping, my dear? Please try to hold back your tears. Hailie, my sweet child, dry those eyes of yours. This isn’t forever.
