OP is on point. The 8mile OST and Eminem Show was his high point. Then this is all the crap he unloaded on us after. He hasn't really recovered either don't even ask me how.
I see what you did there
But yeah .. It makes you wonder how it all started to unravel.
2002 he had a critically acclaimed album / film and soundtrack . He signed 50 around this time , and then he blew up.
Commercially and financially everything was cool.
Then all of a sudden the pills took ahold of him, and he lost any form of quality control , bloated out , lost creativity and went on hiatus.
Came back in 06 looking like he was about to die, stuttering, trying to save face promoting "The Re Up" which was also 90% garbage.
