After being MIA in the studio scene for the last few years, Eminem has finally entered the field again, as he told Billboard about his new and up coming album “Relapse”, which is due in spring. Slim Shady, who had not been in the production mood since 2004’s “Encore”, says the album will bring back good times with mentor Dr. Dre.

“Me and Dre are back in the lab like the old days, man,” Eminem reportedly said in an e-mail to Billboard. “Just him banging away on tracks and me getting that little spark that makes me write to it. I don’t have chemistry like that with anyone else as far as producers go — not even close. Dre will end up producing the majority of the tracks on Relapse. We are up to our old mischievous ways. … Let’s just leave it at that.”

While there’s still no release date for the LP, Em was disappointed by the recent “Bottle” leaks- of songs being somehow released to the public.

“It wasn’t close to finished, and it even has me doing guide vocals for Dre as a suggestion of how he could lay his verses down,” he told Billboard. “It’s like someone catches you peeping in your window before you got the Spider Man costume all zipped up! Nobody is supposed to see that. We are gonna finish it up, though, and get it out there how it’s supposed to be.”
