Eminem has got the Internet abuzz after dropping a few Easter eggs regarding his upcoming project. While onstage for his ‘Monster’ tour with Rihanna in Detroit, the rapper wore a t-shirt that reads “Shady XV,” a hashtag he then later employed when thanking his fans for the final show:
Incredible end to #TheMonsterTour with @Rihanna in Detroit. Thank you all. #SHADYXV http://t.co/uj7s2ZXx4A pic.twitter.com/RCtTbEwhTO

Teasing his contribution to the album’s soundtrack, “Guts Over Fear” featuring Sia, a promo video reads that the song is “FROM SHADY XV – BLACK FRIDAY”: //www.youtube.com/embed/ziKYpc6Tmvw?rel=0 Things became clearer during tonight’s MTV Video Music Awards, after Eminem tweeted:
Yes it’s official… #SHADYXV Black Friday.
