DETROIT — Eminem's comeback year of 2009 was expected to include the release of two new albums.

That turned out to be only partially true.

``Relapse,'' the Detroit rapper's first original studio album in more than four years, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart in May and eventually went platinum.

The plan then was to release a follow-up disc, entitled ``Relapse 2,'' in the second half of the year.

Instead, Eminem and Interscope Records announced Thursday that ``Relapse 2'' will drop in 2010, and a CD called ``Relapse: Refill'' will come out on Dec. 21.

The ``Refill'' album is a rerelease of ``Relapse'' and includes seven bonus tracks.
