Shady’s back, well in a few months at least.

Fans of American rapper Marshall Mathers, best known as Eminem, are utterly delighted, as his ninth studio album is expected to come out in the latter part of 2017.

Almost four years removed from the massive success of “The Marshall Mathers LP 2” in 2013, the “Rap God” singer is indeed back inside the studio and cooking up some fresh beats, music industry insiders Hits Daily Double confirmed.

The 44-year-old hip-hop icon first teased the making of a new album last year, when he debuted an anti-Donald Trump freestyle rap called “Campaign Speech” during the elections.

“Don’t worry I’m working on an album! Here’s something meanwhile,” he wrote on Twitter, along with a link to the diss track.

Aside from music, Eminem is working his hands on producing a new comedy film, “Bodied,” which follows the story of a university student that writes a controversial thesis on the rap battle scene.
