Rapper Eminem has been very silent about the production and release date of his newest album, but rumor has it that there may be a delay in the project due to other engagements.

According to the Vine Report, the initial release date of Eminem's album was sometime at the end of 2016. However, the release might be pushed to a "much later date." This may be due to several reasons - one of them being the rapper's lack of inspiration. Although Eminem has reportedly finished eight tracks for the album and is rumored to have hired security to ensure no one hears his recording, there are speculations that the artist is waiting for more inspiration to come to produce new chart-topping tracks.

Eminem was recently spotted in Argentina a the Lollapalooza music festival, entertaining the crowd with his famous songs Love the Way You Lie, Without Me and White America. However, Eminem was absent from the recent Coachella music festival, igniting rumors that the 43-year-old rapper is indeed hitting the studios to record his new tracks.

According to the Hall of Fame Magazine, another reason for the release delay may also be attributed to the new Paramount TV series, Narc. Speculations have been going around that Eminem may be joining the TV series as the music supervisor and executive producer.

The series, which is based on Joe Carnahan's 2002 film of the same name, is set in Detroit, where Eminem was born and raised. Ever since his fame, the rapper is known to hold the city close to his heart, which may explain his involvement in the new TV series. Aside from his roles as music supervisor and executive producer, Eminem is also rumored to be composing new music for the TV series, which may explain why he would postpone the release date of his 2016 album.
