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

[BK The Great]

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.

Em had the nerve to put Skylar Grey on a Mozzy feature It shows how much out of reality he really is.

Oh sooo now Christina Aguilera won't hot in 2000?


Broad was a dime back then

Shaped like a typical white teenager, don't see how black men are attracted to this.

He was flowing hard on that one.

Yeah, especially that bar when he said “My bum is on your lips, my bum is on your lips…”. He was in the pocket with that one.

I thought it was ill as a kid

Nah EM got bangers

Crazy to think Daly is still relevant today. Out of every TRL host, he's the only one still eating.

vanessa does some acting and has a successful production company. lala is acting now and a full time celeb

[RennisDeynolds]

he had good radio singles for the era he came out. good catchy cringy songs for teenagers and kids to eat up

he also had a lot of dark shyt that meshed well with some other genres popping at the time

never got into him beyond that. em should have become a full time actor after 8 mile

Like I said numerous times

You can't bump Eminem in the whip with the system loud without everyone looking at you crazy.

Ull be labeled a cornball for life.

I think that sums up Eminem in the best way possible.

 

[R=G]

Toy soldiers and bytch Please 2 is serious, no matter how nyggas downplay it

 

[R=G]

Haven’t listened to it in years and don’t plan to The Eminem Show will always be his best album.

Marshall Mathers album is definitely the best album he did...

You're 100% right about bytch please but thats because of dre on the boards and the features. Thats one of the rare Em joints you can throw on in the whip.
