New albums by U2, Eminem, and Black Eyed Peas could bring a year-end bang

Is Universal’s Interscope-Geffen-A&M Records label looking to stack the fourth-quarter deck? Sources say the music industry’s market-share leader is preparing a fall slate that is likely to include new albums from marquee names like U2, Black Eyed Peas, No Doubt, Pussycat Dolls, and Keane. Also on tap: long-awaited efforts by Dr. Dre and Eminem, who is believed to have enough material to compile his fifth studio album. A label rep couldn’t specify or confirm any street dates, but if most (or all) of the albums get pre-holiday releases, Universal could end the year with full domination of both the charts and the ailing U.S. music market.

    I’m happy to hear about the new Eminem album. It’s been almost four years since his last CD, Encore. Even though it wasn’t my favorite album of the bunch, I still think Eminem’s one of the most talented rap artist in this decade. Even a mediocre CD from Slim Shady outshines the efforts from the majority of today’s rap artists.
