[May 20, 2009]  DETROIT (AP) -- Eminem has given hundreds of hometown fans in Detroit extra reason to celebrate his first new album in almost five years -- a free show.

The rapper put on a free concert at MotorCity Casino's 1,500-seat Sound Board theater Tuesday -- the same day his album "Relapse" was released.

Spokesman Dennis Dennehy says Eminem performed eight songs. The set was largely new, except for "Lose Yourself" from the film "8 Mile."

The show comes after Eminem and Jimmy Kimmel flew about 200 laid-off auto workers to Los Angeles for the rapper's Friday appearance on Kimmel's TV show. "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" also plans to feature Eminem on Tuesday and Friday.
