Eminem’s new album for 2013 still has no official release date. Rumors have been circulating that the Eminem’s new album will be released on Labor Day, but there’s been no word from Eminem except Twitter teases and warnings from Eminem’s hype man, Mr. Porter, that his fans shouldn’t rush art. In the meantime, there are reports that Eminem is ready to get back on stage in the U.S. There have been no plans released for any show in Detroit, Eminem’s home town.

Vibe Magazine reported that Eminem is set to perform live in New York City this Wednesday at G-Shock’ "Shock the World" event. Setlist.fm posted that the last time Eminem took the stage for a full concert was Aug. 19, 2012 in Seoul, South Korea at the Jamsil Sports Complex.

Vibe reports that Eminem will “rock the mic for the second year in a row alongside DJ Mick Boogie and Shady Records artist Yelawolf. James Marsden, Jessica Stam and Brooklyn Nets center Brook Lopez will also make appearances as guest speakers.”

Vibe also reported that Eminem has been staying out of the public, but has been feeding Instagram with “studio flicks beside Big Sean and Black Hippy. Em is also rumored to be dropping his own album around Labor Day.”

Eminem is preparing to do a mini-tour of Europe later this month.

Eminem's European mini-tour dates are:

Aug. 15 - Pukkelpop Festival in Hasselt, Belgium

Aug. 17 - Slane Castle in Slane, Ireland

Aug. 20 - Bellahouston Park in Glasgow, United Kingdom

Aug. 22 - State De France in St. Denis, France

Aug. 24 - Reading Festival in Reading, United Kingdom

Aug. 25 - Leeds Festival in Leeds United Kingdom
