Reports: Eminem's Weary Of Fame, 'Encore' Is Last Album

Eminem, born Marshall Mathers, is reportedly hanging up the microphone.

The Detroit Free Press reported that Mather’s latest album Encore will be his last release. Insiders told the paper that the rapper has been planning on retiring to concentrate on production and other ventures.

Eminem’s manager Paul Rosenberg told the paper that Encore was “certainly the cap on this part of his career” and that decision to retire was held off by the retirement of fellow Hip-Hop superstar, Jay-Z.

“He didn't want to seem like one of those guys who's playing a trick on his fans, or playing with their heads," Rosenberg told The Detroit Free Press. "It's part of the same struggle he goes through in his music -- 'How much of my inner thinking should I be putting out there?'”

Rosenberg also stated he was surprised no one caught on to the possibility of Eminem retiring, due to numerous clues on the Encore album. An insider also stated that Eminem has grown weary of the spotlight and was struggling writing as “Eminem.”

“Em has definitely gotten to the level where he feels like he's accomplished everything he can accomplish in rap," D-12 member Proof added. "He wants to kick back and get into the producing thing."

Insiders said Eminem’s inner-circle of friends knew in advance that Encore would be the best-selling rapper of all time’s last album.

Eminem is not doing interviews this summer and representatives for Eminem did not comment as of press-time.

Glad to hear him keep to his word and hang it up before he gets washed up. Just in time for tupac to come back from the grave.

Em was something different all together. He was one of best and never really sold out. The SS lp never gets old, pure comedy. This is my dance song...

Infinite, SSLP, and MMLP are great albums. The Eminem Show and Encore are HORRIBLE albums.

I am glad he retired before he puts out another steaming pile.

So he isn't going to release another album, a few months ago he was saying he was going to release on more album this fall than hang up his mic. Oh well, good news I suppose.

He'll retire then come back a while later. That's how it goes I guess.

He is not "with it," that is, he doesn't know "what's happening." But if he manages to figure it out, he moves up a notch to "hip." And if he can bring himself to approve of what is happening, he becomes "groovy." After that, with much luck and perseverance, he can rise to the rank of "cool." A cool guy... cool guy... cool guy...
