Relapse Part 2 was due to be released in 2010, but scrapped it due to media and fans and so he decided to release his latest album Recovery.

He released his first album since 2004's Encore, titled Relapse, on May 15, 2009. Eminem then went on hiatus after touring in 2005. "Lose Yourself" would go on to become the longest running #1 hip-hop single. In 2002, he won the Academy Award for Best Original Song for "Lose Yourself" from the film, 8 Mile, in which he also played the lead. He then won the award again in 2010 for his album Relapse, giving him a total of 11 Grammys in his career. The Marshall Mathers LP and his third album, The Eminem Show, also won Grammy Awards, making Eminem the first artist to win Best Rap Album for three consecutive LPs. The following album, The Marshall Mathers LP, became the fastest-selling solo album in the United States history. Eminem learned his trade while growing up in Detroit, United States, and quickly gained popularity in 1999 with his major-label album, The Slim Shady LP, which won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Album. Marshall Bruce Mathers III (born October 17, 1972), better known by his stage name Eminem/Slim Shady is an American rapper and record producer. 'Cause it might just come back on you ten fold Just watch what you wish for 'cause I got the shitSo be careful what you wish for This is like a vibe you get, go ahead and bob to it Man, boy's got to look nutsAnd that's the only word I can think of right now Just watchin' it from an opposite standpoint I appreciate the prayer but I've already got God on my sideĪnd it's been one hell of a ride, hasn't it? Just to get to where I'm atI've already told you at least a thousand times in these rhymes I think of all the shit I had to go through 'Cause it might just come back on you ten foldI got a letter from a fan that said he's been prayin' for meīut somethin' told me to go ahead and open itBut why would someone pray for you 'Cause it might just come back on you ten foldI said, be careful what you wish for Then you just might not know what to do wit' it 'Cause you just might get it and if you get it

My back has been broke, I can still walkSo be careful what you wish for I guess enough time just ain't passed yetĪ couple more years that shit'll be 'Ill-matic'And eight years later I'm still at itĭivorce, re-married, a felon, a father, sleepin' pill addictĪnd this is real talk, I feel like the Incredible Hulk Years later, they'd go back and re-rate itĪnd call the Slim Shady LP the greatest'The Marshall Mathers' was a classicīut 'Encore' just didn't have the caliber to match it There was no where for me, to not go and be seenĪnd just go and be meAnd there was no in between Had the game hemmed up like a sewin' machine I became a hypocrite, concert after concertI was rakin' in the dough, rollin' in green I just wanted a little bit, then it turned me to a monster But somethin' changed the minute that I got a whiff of itI started to inhale it, smell it, started sniffin' itĪnd it became my cocaine, I just couldn't quit
