'As Many Fans may know, rapper Eminem's long-awaited LP, "Recovery", leaked this week and it has been receiving very positive reviews from critics and fans alike, but according to Marshall, "these aren't the only songs to look forward too." A recent interview today with Marshall gave light to the rumor of a possible "Recovery" Double Album. After giving his thoughts on the positive feedback to "Recovery", Em stated: "After I decided to scrap the sequel (to Relapse 2), I obviously didn't completely get rid of the previous tracks I recorded because of the huge effort from a lot of people and, I feel like what's the point of never releasing work that my fans would appreciate?" Mathers then continued by explaining how fans could get their hands on the previously unreleased songs, "Included in every copy of Recovery purchased in (stores), is a ticket to enter a code on 7/6/10 that will allow the customer to go online on my website to download 14 tracks that were originally meant for Relapse 2 and, there is definitely a lot of anticipated guests and great producers on that album so, I felt like its a good idea to get that out there." So, it's now official, "Relapse 2", the album fans thought would never happen, is going to be available with every purchase of the "Recovery" CD. To wrap up the interview, Em gave us his thoughts on the "Recovery" leak: "I definitely am glad that
(the fans) are gonna be able to get their hands on the songs earlier than excited, because they deserve it after all the twists and turns, but at the same time, I feel like thats not everything, because I got the other (album) dropping along with it, so I guess I'm just neutral and I'm glad a lot of people are enjoying it." Well, there it is the final plans for the most anticipated Rap album in years and don't forget to pick up "Recovery" in stores or on iTunes on June 22th.'
