Eminem Reveals Jim Carrey Inspired 'The Eminem Show,' Will Drop 15th 'Anniversary Capsule' Tonight

Guess who's back, back again! Eminem is prepping something very special for the 15th anniversary of one of his best works to date: The Eminem Show. He has been teasing the project for a few days now, but now the rapper has announced the anniversary edition of the album will drop tonight (May 30).

Eminem revealed the inspiration behind creating the album, which he has Jim Carrey to thank. “The concept for The Eminem Show was inspired by The Truman Show because my life felt like it was becoming a circus at that time and I felt like I was always being watched,” he wrote on Instagram along with a photo of the LP's credits. “Basically Jim Carey wrote my album.”
