Eminem New Album 2013: Release Date NOT July 2? Rapper Mr. Porter 'Doubts' Slim Shady will Debut New Music Before August Europe Tour, Olly Murs Collaboration Rumors?

Rumors surrounding Eminem's new 2013 album continue to take the web by storm - apparently there's even a chance English singer/songwriter Olly Murs might appear on the record! Several Twitter fans believe that Slim Shady's new music will drop sometime around July 2... but according to Em's "hype man" Mr. Porter, that's very doubtful. The former D12 rapper suggests that Eminem's eighth studio album won't be released anytime before his mini-tour of Europe, which kicks-off mid-August. Does that mean fans will have to wait until the FALL for fresh Slim Shady beats? Read on for more details!

Eminem remains very hush-hush about his highly-anticipated upcoming album... no cover art, tracklist, or rumored names have yet to hit the web. No new songs featuring Em's rhymes have managed to leak online, either. Still, Mstars managed to wrangle up as much info as possible to keep anxious fans pacified:

Rumors have it that the new album will drop on July 2... but according to Eminem's good friend Denaun "Kon Artis" Porter, that's highly unlikely... Porter recently tweeted back a fan:

@MrPorter2012: "That i doubt but who knows RT @master360: @MrPorter2012 do u know if Em will release his new album before the european shows?"

Here's Eminem's European tour scheduled for August 2013:

August 15, 2013: Kempische Steenweg, Kiewit (Pukkelpop 2013)
August 17, 2013: Slane, Ireland
August 20, 2013: Dumbreck Road, Glasgow Eminem
August 21, 2013: Bramham Park, Leeds (Leeds Festival 2013)
August 22, 2013: Stade De France, La Plaine St Denis
August 23, 2013: Bramham Park, Wetherby (Leeds Festival 2013)
August 24, 2013: Reading, Reading (Reading Festival 2013)
August 25, 2013: Bramham Park, Leeds (Leeds Festival 2013)

So if that's truly the case, there's a good chance Eminem won't release his album until the Fall... what do fans think about that?

And as for the Olly Murs rumors... the "Dear Darlin'" crooner considers Slim Shady a huge inspiration, so what's so bad about a surprise collaboration? Murs recently revealed to 4Music that Eminem was the inspiration behind his newest hit track - "I always remembered the idea of Marshall Mathers and Eminem when he did 'Stan' - he was writing a letter. That was one of the ideas we had for this song. We said, 'The song should be called Dear Darlin' and it should be the start of writing a letter, that would be so cool.' This song was kind of a way of showing people that you don't have to text or tweet or Facebook. The old-school way of doing things is writing letters and I used to write letters to my girlfriends."

Can fans picture it?
