Now that the tracklisting for Eminem’s Recovery album has surfaced, the Detroit native can put his lyrical focus on another musical endeavor—creating a third album with the rap collective D12.

Critics may have questioned whether Marshall Mathers would ever rejoin forces with his rhyming brethren, but one plump D12 member has the answer. “Of course Eminem will be on [the album],” Bizarre explains to staging-rapup.kinsta.cloud. “He’s part of the group!”

Besides Slim Shady and Bizarre, D12 members Kuniva, Swifty, and Kon Artis will return to make appearances on the forthcoming effort, which is yet to be titled. Kon Artis, also known by his production handle Mr. Porter, will create a bulk of the album’s beats. “We’re just really getting started on it,” Bizarre states. “It should be due out before the year’s over.”

While the rapper known for his token shower cap would not reveal song titles or the album’s concept, he did disclose that fans should expect more than the comical stylings heard on D12’s previous works, Devil’s Night and D12 World. “We’re just trying to make good music,” Bizarre admits. “[The album is] definitely going to be more serious than any other D12 album that’s come out.”
