    Why wouldn't he be hyped about another album coming from a legend?

    I finally understand the concept completely. In Guilty Conscience 2, his two characters (Eminem and Slim Shady) are speaking to his conscious. Once he wakes you hear in the background "Shady's rock-a-bye baby" from When I'm Gone the last time he killed Slim Shady. From this point, Shady takes over his conscious and everything from track 12-1 is a dream as if Shady had never died. Completely at the end of 'Renaissance' you hear him waking up again, and its like Eminem is reborn again fully laying Shady to rest for a final time.

    I've completely changed my mind on this album. Just re-listened in full with a friend who used to love Em as a kid, but doesnt care for Eminem today, and alls I can say is it hit us. It hit us hard. This may be a potential masterpiece. Thread coming soon.

    No critic who works for any big publication is gonna praise an album full of offensive stuff in today's society, they want to keep their jobs.
    So i wouldn't look too into this

    I don’t think I’ve ever heard the words haters and critics in any other context of life apart from when we talk about Em

    Tbh, that s--- seems needlessly mean and I don't recall anything that Chris did back to keep Em this engaged with it either.

    It doesn't matter how many times you get knocked down. What matters is how many times you get back up.

    midgets broads give the best head. It’s like they appreciate it more or something. Plus standing at d-ck level helps.
