Jul 7, 2024 Def! He is a different force, hopefully he will get some more appreciation by Detroiters now, i think he would value that
Jul 7, 2024 MFers got less than a week till 20 new eminem tracks and are still engaging in repetetive and braindead tobey discourse smh
Jul 7, 2024 Completely different songs, but Em shouting dad jokes on a track with a pop singer on the hook is NOT better than Tobey People are so mad at the choice for a second single they’re coming out with some wild takes lol
Jul 7, 2024 No. I mean that he lets Tobey have a couple of weeks. Releases the album. There's the initial hype, he does good first week numbers, as usual. Then a week in to it being out, so 3 after Tobey, he picks a strong song from the album to put out that not only keeps people talking about him past the first week, but also catches the ear of anyone that hasn't given his album a listen when they hear it on the radio or see the video on YouTube. It won't be a song like this, but LTWYL wasn't put out as a single until Recovery was officially out. And it clearly helped sales and relevance. If he is hiding another nostalgia song, or a feature with Billie Eilish/Weeknd, etc then it would be the smart time to release it.
Jul 7, 2024 Majority of the hate because they wanted "more Em". Meanwhile, the beat, rhymes, flows, and vocals are fire. A true fan of Hip Hop can't objectively hate on Tobey.
Jul 7, 2024 In terms of how Tobey fits into the album, I’d imagine the previous track would reference people saying Em doesn’t do enough for Detroit & their rappers or whatever and then you get Tobey where he lets them shine Then towards the end of the Em verse where he says he’s the GOAT, I’d imagine that leads into the next song like Greatest The ‘Shady gone’ lyric is probably a double entendre for being crazy & from a track earlier where I assume Shady gets killed. Maybe not as cohesive and thematic as some of you all want, but it could loosely work Not ideal but let’s just wait for the album before making massive judgements
Jul 7, 2024 I didn't say it was mate. I was talking about him saving strong singles for the album already being out. Probably wasn't clear. On another note, Recovery's singles were on a weird schedule outside of LTWYL. Not Afraid came out 2 months before the album, and they promoted nothing but that. Then they did No Love months and months later. Then they did Space Bound a full on year after.
Jul 7, 2024 Yes, i think they will have 2 more singles after album's release one a potential hit one a more catchy song than tobey but still hardcore rap
Jul 7, 2024 https://consequence.net/2010/06/check-out-eminem-feat-pink-wont-back-down/amp/ "Not a single" but was released June 4th, 2010. Recovery came out on June 18th Chief.
Jul 7, 2024 Tobey doesn't need a few more weeks, it will be dead and gone in a week Need 2 more singles/videos at least
Jul 7, 2024 On wikipedia page (yes it has its own page kinda weird) it says song is released on june 18th with the entire album
Jul 7, 2024 Won’t Back Down was released prior to the album being released but wasn’t listed as an official single
