DETROIT – Eminem’s new single “Houdini” arrived Friday, and with it a music video that’s chock-full of celebrity cameos from Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, comedians Shane Gillis and Pete Davidson, and more.
The music video, like the song, is a throwback to Eminem’s 2002 hit “Without Me,” the first single released off of “The Eminem Show.” The song reprises the “guess who’s back” intro to the song, and the video features Eminem and Dr. Dre returning to their superhero characters from the video.
“Houdini” is based on a playful interpolation of Steve Miller Band’s 1982 hit “Abracadabra” and finds Eminem returning to his celeb-skewering Slim Shady roots. (Megan Thee Stallion and R. Kelly both are mentioned.)
“Houdini” is the first single off of Eminem’s new album, “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce),” which is due out this summer. The single was announced in an online video earlier this week, which featured a FaceTime call between Eminem and illusionist David Blaine.
“The Death of Slim Shady,” Eminem’s first album since 2020’s “Music to Be Murdered By,” was announced in April, tied to Eminem’s appearance at the first night of the NFL draft.
