    Quite a varied fanbase. For those who just assume all Em fans are nerdy white guys.

    Dont sleep on a somebody save me music video. Its still very interesting concept wise. Because it is the end of the album. Should be some clues, and for the reverse-fans, then it’s the start of the album. Will be interesting to check for clues

    A couple of things actually.
    I feel like I can't give it a 9 when there are so many OBVIOUS issues Em should've fixed before releasing it:

    1- Too repetitive
    I'm not talking about the subject matter. I'm talking about the words he chose.

    2- Road Rage
    I strongly dislike it. The concept behind Eminem's verses are good, I like that. But the song itself is bad, the pace, the flow and most importantly: The hook. Should've been a bonus track or he should've used those lyrics on something better.

    3- Head Honcho
    Someone as big as Eminem should have called EZ Mil like bro your verse is fire but you need to replace that part in philipino or this s---'s not going into my album. Such a buzz killer.

    4- Some bits on the album don't have that other voice, the young Slim Shady one, it's just current Em simulating to talk to the old Em, but using the same voice for both, which makes it sort of confusing when you've been listening to them going back and forth with distinctively different voices. Yet, it seems he forgot to run some of the tracks through the AI. The All You Got Skit is the best example that comes to mind.

    5- Bad One
    It doesn't belong here. The track is not BAD itself. But it just feels like something he just wanted to include, no matter what.
    Specially if you consider that this track comes AFTER Guilty Conscience 2. In my opinion, Head Honcho and Bad One don't belong in that second half of the album, because GC2 is supposed to divide the album between Slim Shady and Marshall/Eminem. After GC2 we only get Marshall, so he should have made songs that are more "mature" or more like "this is me without Shady" (I'm talking about the content, not the sound).

    6- My personal opinion is that there should've only been 1 song after GC2, to end the album.
    And in that song Em should have told everyone why he needs to let Shady go. What that character did to his head, to his life, etc.
    I know he sort of did that on Temporary and Somebody Save Me, but those were directed to his family. It would've been better if he addressed everybody, like "I need to y'all to let me let him go".

    Just because SSM is getting a video, doesn't mean there won't be more. At least one more.

    Oh yeah, day 1. Really enjoyed the concept. Some songs out of context will definitely be a little iffy (like Em tweeted beforehand) but besides that, thought it was all great rhymes and a lot of fun. Already put 3-4 songs on my running playlist. How do you like it?
