    Yeah, as I said before I'm in Aus and we generally get drops earlier but I didn't realise the time/region locks applied to YouTube videos too. I thought they were fair game ha

    Also on the topic of the Crack A Bottle video hadn't that already dropped? I know I've seen it before. Or was it like an unofficial leak? I specifically remember it being s--- and not featuring either Em or 50 and just literal crackhead bums instead.

    Yeah man it leaked back in the day, was never officially released. I always remember thinking it was the most dogshit music video I'd ever seen, especially when it comes to Eminem music videos

    Yeah, it's incredibly rare I appreciate a music video that doesn't feature the artist(s) in some form.

    (Off the top of my head I can't even think of any I've liked - it gives me the s----s ha)

    I was never a massive fan of the song but I remember feeling like a good video could help push it to being accepted as somewhat of an "anthem" song (which is what I feel like it was kind of trying to be in some ways).

    EDIT: Regarding Crack A Bottle.

    The first one hasn't left the charts in like ten years, plus this one is going to get streams alone just from the millions of people weekly that play the songs on it already who'll end up streaming the version of the song from this album instead when they search.

    Like if someone searches "Without Me", half the time they probably select the Curtain Call version on their streaming platform. He's guaranteed a head-start on streams just from that. They're pre-existing songs people are already searching/listening to.

    Imagine being so obsessed about where a soon to be 50 year old will debut in the charts

    It's something I've always been so perplexed by here, just the yo-yoing from needing to sell well to "sales don't matter" constantly. It's very odd.

    Adam Blackstone, the guy on one of the Paulcast eps, seems to be a tour manager or director or whatever. Sooooo maybe they will hint at a tour or will it just be them going down memory lane lol? I think a new album this year is still likely

    For the record, I really enjoy Is This Love. Em's parts at least, not huge on 50's - kinda weird. Opening up with the snuff film/eating s---/piss lines followed by the Jenner bar just sounds like him trying really hard to do a f----- up Slim Shady impersonation. It's just weird and doesn't suit him.

    What if Is This Love was supposed to be the 1st single of Relpase 2. There was the talk of the firsdt single of Relapse 2 featuring 50 cent back then.

    its also funny how he says not afraid at the beginning of his first vers which became the first single of Recovery which was the new Relapse 2.

    Sly Piper's vocals sound like back then on Seduction and So Bad. This must have been old.

    I could see that being possible purely based off the fact this sounds way too polished to just be some throwaway or even an album track.
