Eminem Reunites With Steve Berman in a Skit to Reveal New Edition of ‘The Death of Slim Shady’

Eminem released another limited-edition digital album of his The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce) on Wednesday (July 17). The rapper takes it back to his roots when reconnecting with a frustrated Steve Berman, who appears on another skit, which has been added to this latest version of the album.

The Interscope Records vice chairman originally joined Slim Shady for a skit named after him on 2000’s The Marshall Mathers LP, and made another appearance on D-12’s Devil’s Night. He pops up again on an Eminem Show skit in 2002, where Em actually shoots Steve. After some time off, Berman returns on 2009’s Relapse after losing feeling in his right arm following the figurative gun shots.

It’s been well over a decade, and they’re back — back again — and still bickering as usual. Em had some fun with the digital album announcement, which finds Berman nagging the Detroit legend about his LP and finally convincing him to make another guest appearance.

Trending on Billboard

“Aren’t you supposed to be dead?” Berman quips. “How the f–k are you gonna put out another album without me on it?”

Em ultimately obliges: “All right, man, I’ll fix it.”

“Ok, @steveberman.. I fixed it,” Em added on social media. “Get the new #TheDeathOfSlimShady digital album- STEVE BERMAN Edition! Includes BOTH bonus tracks #1 and #2 + an exclusive skit w/ Steve. Avail only on shop.eminem.com until THURS. at midnight ET!”

The latest digital album comes with both bonus tracks — “Like My S–t” and “Kyrie & Luka” featuring 2 Chainz. Fans will have the chance to purchase the limited-edition LP until Thursday night (July 18).

The Death of Slim Shady served as Em’s 12th LP and first since 2020’s Music to Be Murdered By. The rapper is headed toward earning his 10th consecutive Billboard 200-topper if he can unseat Taylor Swift for the No. 1 slot.
