From the pictures, the vinyls will come with a pretty cool box set that juxtaposes Eminem's face with a classic hockey mask, or a Jason mask. For those of you who want to hear all of the power, bravado and wordplay in the clarity that vinyl offers, this box set is for you.
According to an Amazon pre-order, the whole thing is available for $259.98 and has Prime shipping. Though the Instagram post says The Vinyl LPs will be released on Thursday, Amazon says the title won't be released until March 23.
Eminem has dominated CD sales as the highest selling hip-hop artist ever with over 45,000,000 sold, but it will be interesting to see if he is able to translate that to vinyls. This may just be a collectors item for die-hard fans, but there are probably enough of them out there who would like to get there hands on this, even with the high price tag.
