Revival is the ninth studio album by American rapper Eminem, released on December 15, 2017, through Aftermath Entertainment, Shady Records and Interscope Records.[5] Like his previous album, The Marshall Mathers LP 2, it is executive produced by Dr. Dre and Rick Rubin, and features many pop artists, such as Beyoncé, Ed Sheeran, Alicia Keys, X Ambassadors, Skylar Grey, Kehlani, and Pink, along with fellow American rapper Phresher. The album's production was handled by several returning producers from his previous two albums, including Rick Rubin, Mr. Porter, Emile, Just Blaze, Alex da Kid, Fredwreck, and DJ Khalil.[6]

Eminem first revealed that he was working on an album following the release of "Campaign Speech" in October 2016. A year later, he performed a viral freestyle at the 2017 BET Hip Hop Awards, criticizing then-president Donald Trump. The album has many lines critiquing Trump's presidential campaign and election. The album's lead single, "Walk on Water", which features Beyoncé, was released on November 10, 2017. "Untouchable" was released as a promotional single a week prior to the album's release. The album issued several more singles, including "River", featuring Ed Sheeran, "Nowhere Fast", featuring Kehlani, and "Remind Me".[4] A music video for "Framed" was also released on April 3, 2018.

Reception to Revival was generally negative, with critics panning its lack of cohesion, overuse of rock-influenced production, the heavy presence of pop guest artists, and poor mixing. The album debuted at number one in Australia, Canada, Finland, the UK, and the US. In addition, it was the UK Christmas number one album of 2017 and has been certified platinum in the UK.[7] It was followed by Kamikaze (2018), Eminem's tenth studio album, in which he reacts to criticism of Revival.
