What's exciting about it? What's going to be different about this album compared to the one that's already in stores?
new packaging im expecting and its probably going to be digitally remastered. Also lowkey hoping for a studio version Pinocchio Story as a bonus track or something. Actually hoping a few unreleased tracks from the 808s sessions make it on as bonus tracks

808's doesn't need to be re-mastered though, they did a great job on the original.
Also extra tracks would be dope but the other re-releases are just straight re-releases though, they're just vinyl cash grabs :yeshrug:

Universal Music Group's Respect the Classics campaign is gearing up to re-release some of the defining hip-hop albums of the past two decades. The cross-label campaign—a collaboration between Def Jam, Interscope, Priority, and Virgin Records—will drop several albums in the coming months, including Kanye West's 808s & Heartbreak, Eminem's The Slim Shady LP, 50 Cent's Get Rich or Die Tryin', and N.W.A.'s Straight Outta Compton among others.The Respect the Classics campaign will serve as a salute to the "iconic, genre-defining albums" of the past 25 years in hip-hop.

the only classic album in this quote is NWA's joint.

They might as well had just put every single Eminem album on there and calling it a day. nikkaz4Life should be on there also, this list is garbage fore real though not just because all of these albums are already available not only on the net but IN STORES ALSO, they could have done much better with the selection process.
