Eminem Presents:The Re-Up [1] or simply,The Re-Up, is a compilation album performed by various artists of American record label,Shady Records. [2] The album features performances by Shady Records artists Eminem,D12,50 Cent,Obie Trice,Stat Quo,Bobby Creekwater and Cashis,while affiliated artists such as Lloyd Banks,Akon and Nate Dogg,made guest appearances. The album debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 chart and has since sold over one million copies in the US alone,being certified platinum by the RIAA.
The album began as a street mixtape project;an underground,unofficial CD with raw production values. "But what happened is that the material was so good and the tracks were getting produced like a regular album",Eminem said:"Instead of putting it out there rough and unfinished,I thought we should add some other new tracks,make it a real album,and put it in the record stores to give these new artists a real boost". [3]
Rampant misinformation about Eminem Presents:The Re-Up included many false internet track listings and the claim that the mixtape would be a tribute to the late Proof of D12. "The D12 album and those unreleased songs with Proof are coming",said Eminem,"but The Re-Up is about these new artists and these new songs. It isn't fair to them or to the memory of Proof to mix them up". [4]
The Re-Up's cover art was drawn by Eminem personally,and depicts the featured artists except for Akon and Nate Dogg,the only two artists that are not signed to Shady,Aftermath or G-Unit. [5]
