Jul 19, 2021 This is just a theory but any chance that nowadays someone helps Eminem with his lyrics and rhyme schemes, one man can't do it all and after over twenty years in the game any possibility he's run out of things to say but studios put immense pressure on him to keep making music and albums. I mean it sells right. Any one else wondered this? Not saying I'm right but just a plausible theory in my head.
Jul 19, 2021 Over twenty years in the game = Over twenty years of practice. But if we take into consideration the fact that Eminem started to write lyrics and made his first steps in performing when he was 14, we can see that his experience is more than 30 years, more than my age is, for example. Even if we cut out 4 years of hiatus, it is still 30 years. And the man is addicted to rhyming.
Jul 19, 2021 Yeah I definitely agree with you on that. I’d even go a step further and say that when Em does actually write his own stuff, it’s because Paul’s forcing him to. I heard rumours that the entirety of Revival was recorded in Paul’s house where he was keeping Em hostage & he was running a sweatshop but for lyrics. They had hundreds of little kids writing bars for him because he couldn’t cope with it himself. That’s why Revival wasn’t great. It makes sense
Jul 19, 2021 It's absolutely crazy. I remember back in the MMLP2 days em was literally silent for years. We thought we'd be waiting 4/5 years for his next album after Revival and he'd slow down with age but f---ing h---. He's really treating his fans here. Just get album after album and I love it. I'm hyped!
Jul 19, 2021 That’s the marketing behind this. giving peoples infos that he gonna release a „surprise“ so that people start to talk
Jul 19, 2021 Drop one or two songs before the album and promote them a bit and he may even have two top 10 records before the album drops to let people know he's back
Jul 19, 2021 There's no marketing behind this lol I think they fired his marketing team after Revival. Now someone uploads the album and that's it. The rest is just speculation
Jul 19, 2021 Theres always people close to him hinting at stuff, they wouldnt do that without permission right? I think they want people to speculate, to most people it will still be a surprise, and usually even among us here, dont know the exact date
Jul 19, 2021 Like back then when he had some of the most popular singles of the year rap (Rap God) or pop rap. Everybody knew he had an album out. Now I've seen people surprised by the beard and he's had it since Kamikaze in interviews and music videos.
Jul 19, 2021 Fr tho, it’s fun with a roll out like a single, here, a video there, albumcover, tracklist, productioncredits etc
Jul 19, 2021 Yeah, it only ruins the surprise for us Stans that be checking his team's IGs (I don't follow them btw, just go there) or rap blogs that will post about it.
