Apr 1, 2015 @VMO2 I was using them as an example, but how are you going to tell me that songs like Not Afraid and The Monster don't cater to casual listeners?
Apr 1, 2015 NA, love the way you lie and the monster (maybe guts over fear too) are probably the only Eminem songs that were made for casual listeners. The rest of mmlp2 and the whole xv and relapse weren't
Apr 1, 2015 @VMO2 Better example, I doubt the average Eminem fan can name a Currensy album, or has even heard of Madlib, or J Dilla, or can say why they think Eminem is better than, say, Future.
Apr 1, 2015 Yo I've never said that he's better than anyone and I think its dumb to say that when you're not a rap listener. I only said that he is a great rapper/musician and that he's lyrically top notch.
Apr 1, 2015 The average listener of Eminem doesn't even know what flow is and couldn't defend the stop and go flow. The average listener doesn't have a refined ear for beats and therefore will argue that a song like the one with Pink is as good as, say, Runaway. The average Eminem fan is simply incapable of proving why they like Eminem more so than other artists other than the tired old subject matter defense
Apr 1, 2015 Non-americans know Eminem because he's Eminem; they still listen to Eminem and generally don't realise his decline because (with the exception of the people in the UK) they don't speak english Casual listeners are casual listeners, they don't know better anyway, they still listen to what they listened in their teenage years or what's hot in the radio
Apr 1, 2015 Do me a favor. Go to the Kanye sxn or Drake sxn. Find users who post there a lot. Ask them if they know who Madlib is. I gaursntee you they're more likely to than the average Stan on here is
Apr 1, 2015 When someone has sslp as ems worst album then there opinion on any other album becomes void
Apr 1, 2015 Bunch of f---in followers on these boards. Never in my life have I heard someone say SSLP is Em's worst album and now one person says it and 2 others quickly do too lol.
