    Dread or Alive Kamikaze should've been released 3 years ago

    Jan 17, 2020
    Conceptually the same thing as some of his more recent (subpar imo) projects, but with significantly better production.

    I'm not sure how to feel about this. If i could forget about kamikaze and revival, then this would be a great album to hear, but him beating the same topical dead horse every other song (that people expect him to ) reduces the impact of what are otherwise pretty well crafted song concepts.

    Another gripe i have with this album is that it's far too long. I'm not an expert on music production/release, but I'm sure that fans and critics alike would much more appreciate a much shorter album and a mix tape of throwaways. Especially given Eminem's fast paced delivery style which can be appreciated but can just as easily become tiring.

    There’s a bunch of stuff missing here. S1 supposed to have production on here

    I’m assuming there’s more coming st some point. Maybe not an entire album but something

    I really don't dislike any songs on this album. "Farewell" is the weakest, but I like his flow.

    I know some people don't like Kamikaze, but if he continues to put out albums like Kamikaze and MTBMB I'll be happy. Once again this album clearly feels like he didn't overthink anything. I'm sure there were tweaks or changes he would have made if he sat on this album, but I think he should just put out a project when he feels it's finished and move on to the next one. I'm an overthinker and it can be crippling. I would rather have an 8/10 Eminem album every couple of years rather than a pattern of a 9/10 album followed by a 5/10 album every 4-5 years.

    Seems like Em is in a good space.

    Really don't like the album name or cover art though...

    Eminem's artwork after Recovery has been so bad, like atrocious.

    Not heard this yet, gonna listen in a bit. I will go into it with low expectations. Treat to have Mac and Marshall drop the same day!

    Just noticed the cover says "The finest in hip-hop since 1997" so, that's pretty cool. Where is the back cover though? Didn't even think of that until now.

    Also people complaining about the album length... It's his third shortest album after SSLP and Kamikaze

    I think it’s more about the amount of songs that are fillers or k--- the cohesiveness of the album

    if this was 11 songs it would be an overall better album than what we have.

    Yo, the sample in Stepdad it's from a song of a legendary band in my country. The song is called Peteribi, the band name's Pescado Rabioso. What a nice surprise man!!!
