Eminem New Album 2013 Rumors: July 2 Release Date Wrong But 'Symphony in H' Track Coming July 9

Eminem's 2013 album has been rampant with rumors, but as everyone scrambles for a July 2 release date that is unconfirmed, D12 member and Eminem hypeman, Duane Porter, reveals that it's coming this fall after his tour.  

So here's where we stand: no one has any idea when the new Eminem will drop. 

He did the hat plug last year, and his agent/representative, Paul Rosenberg, said it will come after Memorial Day weekend, which was almost a month ago. 

Consequently, some people believe that Eminem is dropping his 2013 still-untitled album, a couple days before July 4th. 

THIS IS WRONG. 

Guessing on the release date doesn't make it any more or less likely. So let's do the next best thing.

What sorts of themes and tracks can we expect from the now 40-year-old rapper?

The ideas pulsating through the new album still remain to be seen even as websites continue to overload the Internet with rumors that are just false.

But what isn't are all the various reports about collaborations he might be showcasing on his first studio album in more than three years. 

It might be a complete psych-out and it's a Christian record, which would go against basically everything he's rapped about since the Slim Shady LP dropped in 1999, but that's just an example of how much we crave new music from Em.

We do know the Black Hippy crew and possibly Detroit emceee Big Sean, will be on the record, as will labelmate, 50 Cent, and comedian Chris Rock. 

He might go after Facebook on the album after suing them earlier this year for using a song that bore an uncanny resemblence to his hit "Lose Yourself."

There were rumors Eminem will wait until after his friend and sometime collaborator, Skylar Grey, releases her album, which perhaps by accident is the same day new Eminem material will be released. 

We will be getting to hear a new track from Eminem within a month's time. That much we're sure of, since Tony Touch's mix tape will feature an original track by Eminem entitled "Symphony in H."

We mentioned that Tony Touch album earlier, but Touch has since added the track's name to the mix in preparation for the release.

So we do know that Eminem has new tracks, like the one for Tony Touch's mix tape, but what about the album? 

It's really just rumors on top of rumors and there's no way to know what Eminem or the Shady Record imprint he partially owns will do with the new tracks he's probably still working on. 

If we take Kanye West's "Yeezus" album into consideration, he is probabaly tooling with the beats and the the lyrics. Kanye famously waited until just the last moment before settling on what the record will be, so maybe Eminem is doing the same.
