Mr. Porter aka. Kon Artist, a member of rap group D12, solo rapper, and producer recently gives interview with Friday Night Live on Conspiracy Worldwide Hip Hop Radio this 20 November 2009.
Here's the conclusion:
- He's working on Relapse 2
- Finishing a song for his album
- Did 3 songs together, and kept 1 out of the 3, maybe 2
- Taking a break for a couple of days because of the Awards
- Also working with Ludacris
- Relapse 2 coming early 2010, Album is pretty much finished
- They changed directions for the album a couple of times
- Rumor about Interscope changing the direction is not true
- Interscope doesn't do anything with EM's music, he controles everything
- Really pleased by Relapse, every song is incredible, no fillers
- This album is Eminem thinking in the right mindstate
- Original direction was going to be all Dre production
- Now it's Denaun, Just Blaze, Dre production and more
- The songs remind him of the feeling of a Marshall Mathers LP
- If you're an Eminem fan you will love this album
- The Denaun and Eminem track sounds like bullets flying past your head... its so many punchlines and it's the Eminem people have missed over the years.
- Content on the album is variety, serious content, some content that people never heard from him, very well balanced album. Probably most balanced album since the MMLP.
- A lot of punchlines, clear minded Eminem.
- Not a lot of Quaky music, no songs like The Real Slim Shady as of now.
- Slaughterhouse is on the album? No comment.

SUPERSTAR HIP-HOP ARTIST RELEASES HIS CHART-TOPPING ALBUM RELAPSE WITH FIVE UNRELEASED TRACKS TO TIDE FANS OVER TILL RELAPSE 2
Multi-platinum hip-hop artist Eminem will release Relapse: Refill on December 21ST, 2009, on Aftermath/Interscope Records. This re-release of Eminem’s chart-topping fifth studio album includes seven bonus tracks, including the single “Forever”, also featuring Drake, Kanye West, and Lil Wayne (previously found on the More Than A Game soundtrack), “Taking My Ball” (also released only with the DJ Hero video game), and five never-before-heard tracks.??
"I want to deliver more material for the fans this year like I originally planned" Eminem says. "Hopefully these tracks on The Refill will tide the fans over until we put out Relapse 2 next year". Eminem has been busy in the studio creating even more new material since Relapse was released. "I got back in with Dre and then a few more producers, including Just Blaze, and went in a completely different direction which made me start from scratch. The new tracks started to sound very different than the tracks I originally intended to be on Relapse 2, but I still want the other stuff to be heard." ??
One of the most anticipated albums of the year, the platinum-selling Relapse entered the Billboard Top 200 album chart at No. 1 in May 2009 and sold more than 618,000 domestic copies in the U.S. in its first week. Relapse is also the top selling hip-hop album of 2009. The first song to debut from the album, "Crack a Bottle", was released in February and set a first-week record for digital sales at the time, while the first official single and video, "We Made You", debuted in April. The best-selling hip-hop artist of the SoundScan era, Eminem has sold more than 75 million albums worldwide. His previous studio album, Encore, reached No. 1 and dominated the charts in late 2004. The Grammy-nominated disc was certified quadruple-platinum, generated four Top 40 Hot 100 hits, and has sold more than 11 million copies. In October 2008, Eminem published Eminem: The Way I Am, a compilation of thoughts, stories and memorabilia that entered the New York Times bestseller list at No. 11.

Eminem returns to spotlight with Voodoo Fest concert
USA Today
NEW ORLEANS — He's baaack.
Rapper Eminem emerged from a half-decade hiatus Friday night, bounding onstage at the Voodoo Art and Music Experience here to several thousand cheering fans.
VOODOO FEST: Kiss, Jane's Addiction among top acts
With a gigantic screen behind him showing scenes from a horror movie starring himself, Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, kicked off the evening set with 3 A.M., a song from this year's album, Relapse. Eminem, 37, was a headliner at the three-day, five-stage music festival this weekend that also features Jane's Addiction, Flaming Lips, Lenny Kravitz and KISS.
Friday's crowd roared with approval as Eminem rekindled past hits, such as Business and Square Dance, in his signature rapid-fire rap. A full rock band accompanied him on stage, all members dressed in skeleton outfits.
"Hey New Orleans, I'm back y'all. Did you miss me?" he said to an eruption of cheers. "I missed you, too."
Eminem has kept a reclusive, non-touring life the past several years, as he battled an addiction to prescription painkillers. Friday marked his first concert in five years and his only live performance of the year. There's a history here: Eminem played the festival, known locally as Voodoo Fest, in 2000, just as his first album, The Slim Shady LP, was catapulting him to stardom, said Steve Rehage, a New Orleans native who founded Voodoo Fest in 1999.
Voodoo organizers reached out to Eminem again this year and were surprised when he readily agreed to perform. "It was a really fast, quick and easy negotiation," Rehage said.
Concertgoers on Friday endured heavy rains and dropping temperatures as storms passed over the outdoor festival earlier in the evening. But soggy spectators lined up by the thousands to see Eminem's 75-minute show.
"Everything I expected," said Ian Robert, 22, of New Orleans, under a soaked poncho. "It was definitely worth standing in the rain and the cold.
Eminem toggled between recent creations, such as We Made You, and older favorites, such as Kill You, Cleaning Out My Closet, Superman and The Real Slim Shady. Lighters came out when he performed Stan, the ballad-like song that uses a sample from singer Dido and describes a stalking fan. And a sea of arms waved back and forth as he spat out Like Toy Soldiers.
Midway through the show, Eminem brought out D12, the Detroit rappers collective he's associated with, rapping to hits with them such as My Band and Purple Pills.
Eminem hinted at his newfound sobriety while joking with members of D12 onstage, reminiscing about taking drugs in Amsterdam. "Remember when I used to get (high)?" he said. He then led into Under the Influence, a whimsical rap about popping pills and performing while high.
Eminem's reach was evident Friday night, as teen spectators mingled with older fans, many of whom knew the words to each song. Eva SantaCruz, 43, said she began listening to Eminem after borrowing one of his CDs from her teenage daughter. She drove more than six hours Friday morning from Little Rock, to catch the show, she said.
"He's awesome," SantaCruz said. "There's no way I was going to miss this."
Many fans wandered away toward the end of his show but rushed back for the encore: Lose Yourself, the Academy-Award-winning song that was part of the 8 Mile soundtrack.
"Better than I expected," said Cami Munson, 19, of New Iberia, La. "It's good to have him back."
