"So I can sit next to Carson Daly an Fred Durst..." -EMINEM

[zayk35]

Gonna say what I always say about Eminem...heard it once, he can rhyme his ass off, don't need or want to hear it again tho.

 

[I love Latina women]

He was getting it.. I can't hate loool

Yeah

 

[Sccit]

"And hear 'em argue over who she gave head to first!"

Idk breh. I thought that was hilarious even though 11 year old me had no idea who Carson Daley nor Fred Durst was

Plus I had the censored version, so they replaced "gave head" with "made love"

HE WOULD BE INDICTED FOR RAPE IF HE SAID THIS LINE NOWADAYS

It wasn’t for no reason. He got mad cause she aired out he was married to the world but it ain’t like he wasn’t telling a million people about Kim on his records. Lol. That white boy was crazy as fukk. But EVERYONE fukked wit Em back then tho. nikkas need to stop rewriting history on here it’s mad annoying.

Yeah these threads are corny now.. it's only a thread because it's Em. A lot of sh-t aged poorly. Remember this? Aged very poorly given present day..

Always thought that was corny about dude. And even if it's true it's still tattletale kiss and tell shyt.

 

[BulletProof]

He only made those type of initial singles because Iovine made him.

That he noticed he was starting to be lumped him with the TRL crowd. That was his way of distancing himself as a true emcee while doing what his boss told him to do.

Why do you think Hov dumbed down his lyrics to double his dollars?

Lyor told him too.

No matter how far up the ladder you get, there's still someone above you.

 

[fact]

Illmatic flopped, didn't it?
Recovery was a huge success wasn't it?

fukk outta here, leave the fukking site, corny mutha fukka in here putting any fukking Eminem album anywhere close to illfukkingmatic. This trolling shyt is super foul.

 

[xCivicx]

All facts OP

Eminem is literally one of the corniest rappers of all time

 

[ADP]

this thread having this many pages in 2022 proves he got exactly what jimmy wanted

controversy sells

Recovery is good because it’s not all silly as his older albums. The Eminem Show is his best, the last album he dropped might be the closest he’s sounded from his older stuff too. Everything else is hit and miss, I can’t listen to the whole album rather just pick a few songs and that’s pretty much it.

There are good songs on Recovery, but it's not that good of an album and it's definitely not classic. That album is solely responsible for Eminem’s decline and he's still paying the price for it now.

Also, when the very first song on the album has lines like these:
"You can get the dikk, just call me the ball sack, I'm nuts"
"Might as well let my lips pucker like Elton John/'Cause I'm just a mean cocksucker"
"Call me a fakkit 'cause I hate a p*ssy"

I'm going to assume your album isn't as serious as you claim it is.

 

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

He was jealous of Fred. Despite how corny rollin was, em prob don’t got a better song than that.

Rollin is more aligned to the sound of rap today than anything Em did.

Em is great, but he had to try really hard to get things that just came natural to Fred

Nah EM got bangers

Yea Recovery had a bunch of corny ass lines like that, but it’s as mature of a album we’ll get from Em. He had to go full mainstream for his career sake.

The Eminem Show was his most mature album. Encore could have been on the same path if he wasn't abusing pills.

I don't think he had to go full mainstream. To become a huge star again, yeah. But Relapse sold almost as much as Recovery did in its first week, and went #1 and went double platinum. Nothing about that album was made to cater to top 40 radio except for "We Made You" and "Crack a Bottle," and there are way poppier songs on Recovery than those.

If Eminem wanted the respect, and didn't care about what the critics thought, he would have put out Relapse 2. Went down the underground path working with people like Alchemist and Sid Roams regularly. Probably released a few more Bad Meets Evil projects, maybe even a Slaughterhouse album that was more hardcore than mainstream. In this timeline, Skylar Grey probably never gets her big break and ends up starving to death in the woods or wherever it is she came from.

Recovery brought Eminem back to the top and introduced him to a new generation of fans. It was a comeback endorsed by everybody. But I don't know if it was worth the next eleven years of content, honestly.
