Relapse is the sixth studio album by American rapper Eminem, released on May 15, 2009 by Shady Records, Aftermath Entertainment and Interscope Records. It was his first album of or iginal material since Encore (2004), following a four-year hiatus from recording due to his writer's block and an addiction to prescription sleeping medication. Recording sessions for the album took place during 2007 to 2009 at several recording studios, and Dr. Dre, Mark Batson, and Eminem handled production. Conceptually, Relapse concerns the ending of his drug rehabilitation, rapping after a non-fictional relapse, and the return of his Slim Shady alter-ego. Show more
