Stans everywhere will have to wait a little longer for their favorite rapper’s long awaited return. Eminem has confirmed that his sixth studio album Relapse won’t arrive until next year.

It had previously been reported that Relapse would hit stores before the end of the year, but the 36-year-old MC told MTV that his first LP since 2004’s Encore is now scheduled for a January or February 2009 release.

Em is currently in the studio with Dr. Dre in Detroit. He has recorded around 100 songs over the last couple years.

“We’re real close right now,” he told Carson Daly on MTV’s “Total Live Finale” on Sunday.

    I’d rather wait one more month or even more because i know its worth doing that. We know that they wouldn’t delay it if it was perfect but Em and Dre are perfectionists and they dont want any flaws. EM is the King!!!

    So far, 50 Cent, Ciara, Keri Hilson and now Eminem have all pushed their albums back to 2009.

    I had a feeling that Em’s album wasn’t going to come out until 2009 but he should of never even said it was coming out next month in the first place.

    The only album that i’m really looking forward to now for next month is Britney’s “Circus”.
