Aug 19, 2021 lmao, we don't promote music anymore man, if anything he will win because American rap is not mainstream anymore, it's all trap, so the most famous one wins, and that's Em.
Aug 19, 2021 Yeah, Em's not blowing up again, man. He would need a Rihanna feat for that, or a great single + heavy promo, and I don't see it happening
Aug 19, 2021 You think Kamikaze blew up? if anything the beef with MGK after it dropped. None of the singles were big.
Aug 19, 2021 Kamikaze blew up when it surprised dropped. Best first week sales he's had since MMLP2. The Sway segmented interview had everyone hype too. That was the last Em album that non hardcore Em fans know about.
Aug 19, 2021 Yeah literally forgot that album even existed. It hardly “blew up” lmao it was probably his least popular album *commercially*
Aug 19, 2021 Look at the hype Kanye is building now with Donda. Ironically enough, he's released two commercials promoting it's music.
Aug 19, 2021 I think the wait is gonna be way better than the music. This whole circus. And he knows that.
Aug 19, 2021 You know music and singles has moved on from what is being a hit now? You’re baseing a hit on if it’s played on radio 24/7, showing up on all the music video channels all the time or promoting a album on every radio show or talk show. That is not the case any more. It’s how much a song is getting streamed, buzz on social media, podcasts and YouTube reacts. That’s why Kamikaze was big because it’s was all them things and was a solid album. Just because you don’t hear a mainstream song with a pop Artist on rotation 24/7, doesn’t mean it’s not a hit. Outdated method that now, hence Revival.
Aug 19, 2021 Hits are hits, just say rappers don't have them anymore except Drake. And Em picked the worst possible first single for Revival, that's why it didn't work at all.
Aug 19, 2021 nah moderating has always been a thankless job and being admin even more so. If I was hurt by about people bitching the forum or my character I would have quit a long time ago. The reason I originally deleted that post was because I decided it wasn't worth it to keep arguing with SM in this situation but he responded to it in the few minutes it was up so I undeleted it when I noticed that later. He was talking about how he had been following the rules and only beefing in OT...in the eminem thread...aka the same thread he got banned in for disrupting less than 24 hours after he got back from being banned for the same thing. He was just being, to quote his own words, a "headache." I do find it funny that you and spacemonkey are so convinced I'm out to get you when I'm the one who wanted to give both you a chance to post again in the first place. You might not believe it but when you guys aren't disrupting regular threads I actually think both of you are funny and enjoy your presence here. Neither of you care about your popularity which is refreshing cuz a lot of people here (and on the internet in general) are so deeply concerned with their internet street cred. Forums need antagonists/wild cards, just not at the expense of regular discussion.
