Following a handful of previews and teasers of Yelawolf's next album, the Southern rapper has finally fit his long-on-the-works Love Story with a street date. The record arrives April 21 through Slumerican/Shady Records/Interscope.

A press release confirms that the Alabama spitter's second major label release comes executive produced by Shady Records head Eminem. The follow-up to 2011's Radioactive has been in the works for the last two years, with the bulk of the recording sessions having taken place at Nashville's Blackbird Studios. In addition to Eminem, producers on the project include Malay and WLPWR.

"I'm telling the truth about a lot of things," Yelawolf said in a statement. "I try to be as honest as I can with everything I do."

Love Story's tracklisting has yet to be revealed, but the set is said to feature previously released singles such as "Box Chevy V" and "Til It's Gone," a song that had initially popped up on television drama Sons of Anarchy.

You can see its canine-equipped album art above.

The set's "Whiskey in a Bottle" went on sale as a single last week on iTunes and has just been toasted by Yelawolf in a new lyric video. You'll find the lyrical tutorial down below.
