Eminem New Album 2013: 'You Don't Rush Art,' Mr. Porter Says
While Eminem hasn't said much in regards to his upcoming album, his fans have bombarded his good friend and producer Mr. Porter with questions about it.
One of Eminem's fans asked Mr. Porter if he has "time to answer a question" via Twitter on Sunday. It seems, however, Mr. Porter, whose first name is Denaun, might be a little fed up.
"If it's about Em's album no. Cause my reply is it's coming," the 34-year-old Detroit native replied.
Still, fans wanted more information, including the album's release date. One person also tweeted that Eminem's new album needs to come as soon as possible.
While Mr. Porter did not reveal a release date, he also didn't agree with the restless fans. Instead, he offered some advice.
"Keep calm," he tweeted. "You don't rush art."
This isn't the first time Eminem's fans have tried to find out details from Mr. Porter.
In June, the former D12 member was asked to describe what the album will sound like on Twitter and he replied, "Have not heard anything like it."
Aside from Mr. Porter, others in Eminem's camp have given away a few hints.
Paul Rosenberg, the co-founder of Shady Records, revealed that the rapper would definitely release his new album in 2013, during an interview with Billboard in February.
Alchemist, Eminem's DJ, told MTV in June that the album is "clearly going to further territories."
Rapper Big Sean also said he recorded a "Detroit classic" with the 40-year-old and the song could possibly appear on the upcoming record.
Slim Shady's forthcoming album will be his first release since 2010's Recovery. The album, which went multiplatinum and rose to No. 1 on Billboard, features the hits Not Afraid and the Rihanna collaboration Love The Way You Lie.
The rapper also recorded the song Symphony in H for DJ Tony Touch's project titled PieceMarker 3: Return of the 50 MCs. The mix tape was released on June 25.
