Maybe I’m biased because growing up Pac was my first favorite rapper. Me and my family listened to his music heavy! I was addicted to this album before I even knew Em produced it.

Now I appreciate it even more because Em’s production was so distinctive and unique around 2002-2006. The Black Cotton beat is so fire I wish Em kept it for himself and did a whole song on it lol. It’s also one of his best hooks. His voice is silky smooth on it.

It’s cool that my favorite rapper when I got older produced my childhood favorite rappers posthumous album. Other than the weird mixing on Pac’s vocals on some of the songs, this album is a solid 8 out of 10 for me.

Old-school rap features? Less gimmicks? More storytelling? For it to be a sequel to a previous album? More Dr. Dre production? Old-school Em production?

Your answer could be featured in a new article coming soon on EMDb (Eminem Music Database). Link on my profile.

What would you want him to change about his music?

I want him to finally tell that choppy, staccato flow to fuck off and remember he's the guy who made The Way I Am, Lose Yourself, Sing for the Moment, and other songs with insane flow and delivery.

His recent stuff leans way more on technique. It's a million multis, wordplay, quadruple entendres, metaphors, similes, and all that. He's so focused on being technically impressive that he forgets how a song SOUNDS matters too. Lose Yourself is technically flawless, but it also just sounds insane. The flow, the delivery, all of it. It's got the best of BOTH worlds, and these days he's putting everything into one side of it.

It's wild that the guy who made The Slim Shady LP, The Marshall Mathers LP, and The Eminem Show is the same guy who made... Revival.

It feels like his whole approach to music changed. If he doesn't care how it sounds anymore, he should just be a poet instead of a rapper. Go be Robert Frost or something.

I can appreciate his lyrics from Revival... on paper. But when I actually hit play, my ears are bleeding.

And if you don't mind posting them and telling the story

Back in 2023 when 50 Cent was performing at Detroit (it was either September or October). Cool concert overall. Would’ve been nice if they performed You Don’t Know before Marshall left. Ideally right when he says “Don’t fuckin act like you didn’t know I was going to be here tonight.” Missed opportunity there, but whatever.

This sub should definitely play Wordle today (Fri 16th)!

People would go crazy for MTBMB, especially “Yah Yah” and “I Will”

That's sad he never put out relapse 2 because of the backlash 😔.

The album title Definitely contains an E thats for sure

The simplicity, the guitar, everything.
