That was not interscope.

They let Eminem have complete control of the project.

Biggest mistake the group ever made.

Album sounded like it was compiled of beats and hooks that em didn't think was good enough for recovery


Joe Budden talks about it on the Slaughtermouse song from his All Love Lost album.

But Slaughterhouse did the opposite of what Stat Quo did, Budden did not want to say no to some many records sold.

Em is an elite emcee, but his emo style of music and twisted sicko raps don't appeal to ghetto kids.

Budden screwed up the other member's pay day by going his own way, I wonder how Joell Ortiz and Crooked I feels.

The love of the art thing took Budden far, but those other dudes trying to cash in too as well.

Happy i didnt check it out:ehh:
Everytime something comes out regardless of the artist and time away/or spent doing an album. . its never as good as the hype..
Butttt. If blackmoon new album comes out:hhh::hhh::hhh::takedat::takedat::feedme::leostare:

Yeah, these days and for even years now in my opinion, it's been this way.

There's always a lot of hype and then after it's all said and done, it's like "that's it?!" :gucci:

It'd been 16 years since Dre had released an album and after countless delays and talk of a mythical and now defunct album, everybody who's been a fan of his was just anxious to hear some new shyt; and because he arguably the greatest producer in Hip Hop, we look to him for something new and refreshing because in the past he's always been the 1 to come back with something great (aside from a few hiccups like that Aftermath compilation, lol).

I don't know. There's certain cool tricks about Compton but it did feel like something was missing.

The crazy thing is that bunch of beats "co-produced" by Eminem allegedly sounded better before he added his own shyt to them...

and at the end of the day, it's either you do what Em/Paul/Interscope want you to do, or your album doesn't get released :manny:

was the album disappointing? without a doubt

would we have even heard few of the good songs/great verses from that album if they had fought to do it entirely their way? nope. at least they got their shyt out. there's still couple of great Joe & Crook verses on the album which I love to this day. at the same time there's couple of songs and verses I wish I had never heard :manny:


it's basically a lose/lose situation, especially since Royce n Em are so close, they were never gonna go against Eminem. All of them (Em, SH & Paul) just should've realized they would've sold just as many records if they had released an album with best possible songs, and had not filled it up with possible singles (which they didn't even release as singles)

Budden said this, which is pretty accurate

"Eminem is great at being Eminem. He may not be great at being Slaughterhouse. Slaughterhouse is great at being Slaughterhouse."

also on Slaughtermouse:

"Who the fukk was I to be too vocal in my doubt for some songs?
Even I can't be that dumb to step over the threshold
And be the guy who says no to so many records sold

Whole career, I never bit my tongue, I let it go
Too many times bein' the rebel, ain't end in what's best for Joe"


which is basically the same thing Stat said now :manny: the difference being that his album never dropped

I see a lot of people saying Compton is trash but can't explain why it's trash

I like the album

:yeshrug:

The only thing don't like about it is Dr Dre rapping Kendrick Lamar. Too many yes men around Dr Dre refuse to tell him the truth like Stat did Em.

:pachaha:
