Trunk Muzik III is the fifth studio album by American rapper Yelawolf, released on March 29, 2019.[4] It is his final album under Eminem's imprint Shady Records, and was released in conjunction with Interscope Records and Yelawolf's own label Slumerican.[5] The album marks a return to an emphasis on the southern hip hop sound that was predominant in Yelawolf's music at the start of the decade, a contrast to the country-folk and hip hop fusions of his previous two albums. While the album is titled as the third in the Trunk Muzik series, it is, technically, the fourth, following his 2009 mixtape Trunk Muzik, its subsequent 2010 reissue Trunk Muzik 0-60, and 2013's Trunk Muzik Returns.

Sessions for the album began in January 2018, following the release Yelawolf's fourth album Trial by Fire, with long-time producer and collaborator WLPWR. This marks their first production collaboration on one of Yelawolf's studio albums since the release of 2015's Love Story.[6]

The album also features production from DJ Paul, Jim Jonsin, BandPlay and Ms Madli, and collaborations from Rittz, DJ Paul, Machine Gun Kelly, Caskey, Doobie, Shawty Fatt, Big Henri, MopTop, Cub da CookUpBoss and DJ Klever.
