Jun 26, 2024 Relapse was a whole different thing tho. It's not that album took long to make, it took him long to readjust to life again. It's nothing like pre Revival hiatus. Revival took years but it's not like he started working on it right after the release of MMLP2 or anything. I don't think he had the idea of Revival too long before the elections in 2016. He might have had songs done before that, he is constantly in studio and maybe he put some of those in Revival hence all over the place sound of the album but other than that taking a long time to create an album only shows the artist wasn't inspired to make a whole project yet which is perfectly normal specially in Em's case as an artist who is at the end of his career in a way. I don't think it's something more than a coincidence, even if it is, he knows better now. Houdini was pretty promising. The album title seems he had some ideas. I have some high hopes. He only gets better with every drop since 2018...
Jun 26, 2024 Eminem used to record a lot of his big singles on the request of the label, as they wanted a big hit. It was the case with Love the Way You Lie – it was the last song he recorded for Recovery. They migh be working on the second single right now, not believing in other songs on the album (as potential hits).
Jun 26, 2024 Is the album coming out on July 5? Why don't we have a date by now? I'm ready to listen to it while I take a trip somewhere to celebrate. But if I don't know the date.. Is it July 5th? Did the billboards announce that?
Jun 26, 2024 I think Houdini is exactly that song. I mean it feels like he created it just to make another hit like Without Me, RSS etc. Hook being sampled from already huge old song kinda supports that feeling too.
Jun 26, 2024 Isn't there just a gap in promo because of the rumored live appearance Em would do during the now postponed boxing match with Mike Tyson?
Jun 26, 2024 Would have been better in my opinion to drop the single, give it a whole week to breath, then release a freestyle to hype people up even more and make a live Perormance of the song(which he did) soon after, reveal the album cover on Wednesday evening and finally release the album a day after on midnight. Short 2 week promo, the hype after houdini was there but they didn't do anything with it. Missed opportunity... Of course you can also do the long Promo game, but then you have to put some stuff out every week to keep people excited. But I don't really care about this stuff anymore, I just want a great album from him.
Jun 26, 2024 Tyson involvement or not, that fight was/is a farce. Em is a fan of the sport and would never in a million years perform at a Jake Paul fight I can guarantee that. Rumour was nonsense
Jun 26, 2024 This Fortnight Rap Boy looks like a ten-year old. I guess I just don't dig the graphic style of this game.
Jun 26, 2024 That's for sure. But I would expect they want a serious single as well. Em knows how much his fanbase is divided. For many of them Em is this guy from Not Afraid.
Jun 26, 2024 You have no idea what you're talking about. A.) Mike Tyson is one of Em's heroes that he has a high level of respect for. B.) The fight will be viewed by millions since it is streaming live on Netflix. Would have been a HUGE look for Em. Unfortunate that the fight was postponed.
Jun 26, 2024 The emote is weak, and these things aren’t cheap. Fortnite skins are pretty expensive (COD also)
Jun 26, 2024 you must be a terrible person everyone inside your time is whispering that you deserve it
