Eminem New Album 2017 Update: Ed Sheeran Collaboration Expected [RELEASE DATE]

Teasers have not been coming from Eminem these days. Some of the rapper's fans are starting to get worried about the release of his new album. However, big news is on the way and it's related to Ed Sheeran.

According to the latest rumors, Ed Sheeran may appear in the Eminem new album. It is widely speculated that a collaboration between the two will be featured in the 2017 album. Just recently the "Thinking Out Loud" singer spoke about the "Slim Shady" rapper's influence in his life.

According to the Sun, Ed Sheeran told Desert Islands Discs that Eminem has had a huge impact on his life as a child. The close friend of Taylor Swift said he listened to the "Rap God's" music when he was young and it helped cure his stammering problem.

Sheeran went on to explain that Eminem's rap was the "speech therapy" that cured his stammering. It is unclear if the two have met already in the past but it appears that something is brewing behind the scenes. This revelation from Sheeran is expected to bring about bigger news about the Eminem new album.

Meanwhile, Joe Budden is said to have slammed two albums from Eminem. According to Blasting News, Budden said two albums from the rapper are all the stories of Marshall Mathers' drug abuse. The well-known entertainer has yet to comment on the remarks that Budden left.

As fans know, Joe Budden is collaborating with the Shady Records for some projects. It is unclear if the comments were made out of honesty or they had a heavier meaning. There is also no report about Budden and Eminem having a fight.

The Eminem new album is expected to be released sometime August of this year. He has yet to confirm if the album will include a duet with Ed Sheeran. On the other hand, fans are looking forward to the alleged collaboration that could potentially be a hit like Rihanna's "Love the Way You Lie."
