The critics were, well, rather critical of it too, hence the FU-2 would seem fitting. The promotional images and cover art for that album are based on the American flag. Though not necessarily, seeing as such designs were common on the planes of that era, and in general, the star with the banners next to вЂњFU-2вЂќ and the American flag above it could be subtle references to Revival. вЂњ FU-2вЂќ (short for вЂњfuck you tooвЂќ) is written on the plane as well, though it does not appear on the вЂњoriginalвЂќ cover. On the Beastie BoyвЂ™s Licensed to IllВ cover, вЂњ 3MTA3вЂќ is displayed on the side of the plane when reversed, it reads вЂњ Eat Me.вЂќ Eminem recreates this in the same manner, but with his own little twist by putting вЂњ TIKCU5вЂќ on the side of the plane, which reversed, reads вЂњ Suck It.вЂќ EminemвЂ™s trademark backward ЖЋВ is integrated into the cover in the word вЂњKamikaze,вЂќ in place of where вЂњBeastie BoysвЂќ was on the Licensed to IllВ cover.

IвЂ™m not saying everybody, but a lot of people had already formed their opinion,вЂќ When theВ RevivalВ track list came down the pipe, it was like overwhelmingly, вЂThis shit is going to be trash.вЂ™ Nobody really wanted to be wrong about it. вЂњWhen you go into an album, you can go into anything with the mindset of, вЂThis is gonna suck.вЂ™ I feel like giving them no warning was the best thing to do.

In a four-part video interview series withВ Sway CallowayВ he laid out the reason for releasing the album unannounced: Label: Shady Records/Aftermath/Interscope Dre served as executive producers, while production for individual tracks comes from a variety of musicians.

Kamikaze (stylized as KAMIKAZЖЋ) is the tenth studio album by Eminem, released on August 31, 2018, through Aftermath Entertainment, Shady Records, and Interscope Records.
