I read over on allhiphop.com that to battle bootlegging he's not finishing his album until shortly before its November 16th release. Seems like a smart move I never really heard anyone doing that before. Hopefully this will be a better album than Eminem Show. I enjoyed Eminem Show but it seemed to bland with only 2 real topics, the gov and his mommy. But big up on Em for givin fans an album its been way too long.

I think his last album was his best, to be honest. I doubt this album will be as good.

I didn't like The Eminem Show and really thought the two LPs he released before were far better. Really hoping he blows it up and goes all out on this cd which I really think he is going to do.

I thought it was kind of entertaining. Not because it was good or anything, but it was just entertaining. Won't be buying the cd though.

the first two were good. Eminem Show was a let down so I didn't bother gettin it and I doubt I'll be gettin this one

You can download his first single clean or dirty FULL VERSION off that site.

The first single clearly states that he's lost his damn mind. But he stated long ago that he rarely likes the 'pop' singles they ask him to create anyway. They always expect him to do a "My Name Is". I'll probably snag the CD for collection purposes anyway.

Personally, Em lately has left a lot to be desired. He doesn't really play on words like he use to, no longer real lyricist to me. Seems like he just throws words together because they rhyme. It'll take some good reviews for me to buy it, not like he'll miss my 15 dollars.

Anyway, I'm not going to judge him on his single. His first single always sucks. He uses the catchy and poppy shit to get attention for the album.

Seems like The Source is backing up Michael on this one. Saying that BET, MTV, and all other music channels should pull the video and all other Eminem programming. The Source also said that Eminem is a threat to the black community and should be ousted from the hip-hop genre. But, I expected The Source to say something negative about the situation being it's owned by Benzino and all...

He' just mad because Eminem made him his bitch. Which is sad, because this is the same Eminem who got owned by a fucking puppet at an award show.

I'm sure I'll give it a listen but I dunno if I'll buy it. I'm not a huge fan of his but I'll admit he's a pretty good lyricist compared to a lot of the other stuff on MTV

I believe Eminem did this before with his last album. But instead of waiting to finish it he said that release date was on a certain day and then at the last second moved it up a week. His reason for that was to battle bootlegging.

yea I downloaded this cd like 2-3 weeks ago and its been in my car since then. Listen to it all the time and some of the songs are pretty good. One of the songs had a beat which is horrible when you have the car volume turned all the way up. But other than that its a pretty good cd.

It's a good album.

There's a few filler tracks, but besdes that I can't really complain.

I like how is beginning to sample in his production now.

He does it on 3/4 songs.

I think it's fairly hilarious that there's a Triumph diss song on the new album. And it's freakin' great. That's even more hilarious.

Must he put farts and shits in half of his tracks?

Anybody Thrilla

11-15-2004, 04:30 PM

I think the farts are just a metaphor for how easy it is for him to be better than most rappers anymore. The songs with the farts are just that...lyrical farts. Nothing he even has to work at.

Or maybe I'm looking too far into it.

I think his last album was his best, to be honest. I doubt this album will be as good. I am on Eminem overload at this point, with his last album combined with D12 getting so much damn airtime these days.

How could you think that? His last album was TERRIBLE. His first major release, The Slim Shady LP, is his best album. Second is Marshall Mathers LP, which some might effectivly argue is the best. This new one is complely horrible, and Eminem show was an utter piece of shit. Maybe pop culture idiots might have like Eminem show, but it lacked an real or decent content and strived for nothing more than mediocrity and tried to fall back on reused humor.

I agree that The Eminem Show was not his best work but somehow It went double platinum.

I just wish this site had more informed fans of hip-hop so we could have some really interesting discussions about how the genre is changing...

Like Toy Soliders and Mocking Bird are the only two stand out tracks. I really like Like Toy Soldiers, I cannot stop listening to it.
