Untitled

3NCORE is an album by the hip hop artist Eminem. It was set for release on November 16, 2004, but was moved up to November 12, due to the leakage of the album on the Internet. That date being a Friday, rather than a Monday (the day when chart weeks start), meant that he had only two days to compete for the #1 position that week in the UK. However, with the huge anticipation and pre-order sales for the album, this still allowed him to reach the top spot there, beating albums from top-selling artists like Britney Spears and Westlife.

The lead single, "Just Lose It," premiered on radio stations across the U.S. on September 23, 2004. The "Just Lose It" video was also available around the world since early October 2004. It makes fun of pop singer Michael Jackson.

"Mosh" is an anti-Bush song, and it was the second song to be "leaked" to internet. A music video was also leaked before the 2004 presidential elections.

"Encore" was released as airplay only.

The second single was "Like Toy Soldiers", depicting the rap feud between Shady Records against Murder Inc. Records and Benzino.

"Mockingbird" was the third single released, describing the feelings he has for his daughter Hailie Jade.

"Ass Like That", the fourth single, was released in 2005.

"Crazy in Love" will be the fifth single to be released.

Interesting Info

On Eminems official website track seven of this album is listed as "Chrisopher Reeves" (intentionally spelled wrongly), "Curtains Up" is removed and all the song before track seven are moved down one number. Apperently there was a song ready about Christopher Reeves but probably due to his death it was taken of the album.
