May 31, 2017 Yes it was somewhat scratched... it wasn't a finished product. He is using his own beats again and is taking his time. The unfinished album I got had a lot of good tracks but something was off and he is self aware. Hes experimenting more than ever. He is trying to make sure his voice is perfect too. From what I heard and know hes working on making sure every word and lyric has perfect delivery. Bass brothers are involved in this. Be patient.
May 31, 2017 Possible, tbh. I think the Relapse response scarred Em. It was like the first time since being an acclaimed genius that he put effort into something, thought something was great and got a ''ehhhh'' response. I think it made him feel out of touch and doubt his judgement - big time. And he does care. A lot. I think he used Shady XV as a tester for new styles on fans, and I think he figured out a new style from the cypher / the battle rap era... the Campaign Speech / No Favours type s---. I doubt it sounds exactly like that but probably similar, just more musical... And he kinda got a Relapse response, from core Em fans, to Campaign Speech and No Favours. He most likely had a classic in the can, but s--- himself @ the response, so has gone and f----- around and tried to 'balance it', so we'll have Recovery-esque and MMLP-esque s--- on there, and then a Rihanna single or two for good measure / money / safety. Can't wait for another muddled album.
May 31, 2017 He's not Hillary Clinton. Only she was stupid enough to think she won before she actually did. Nor would he base an entire album and waste lyrics around a prediction. He may have had to change a few lines or views, but doubtful an album was scrapped
May 31, 2017 Sorry but your gonna be wrong and Relapse was great. "Core" fans would agree Aside from Anne Coulter cluster lines the rest was ok to me. I do agree Shady XV was a litmus test of sorts *Campaign speech was not terrible for what it was. (Just opinions)
May 31, 2017 If this isn't "Em show 2" than it's gonna be a rap/hip hop Throw back "classic" beat album 90s style... all the top artists from that era are active again recently ... I'm hoping this is out of left field and EXACTLY what most og fans would really want and enjoy
May 31, 2017 I really hope Kendrick inspired him to step his game up. And yes I think he's scrapped this album at least twice now but not because of Campaign Speech.
May 31, 2017 new album is probably called One Night Only will be eminem show themed album mixed with a bit of encore and relapse
May 31, 2017 I love Relapse bro. I loved it when it dropped, and I love it now. I'm saying - that wasn't the reaction, initially, from core fans. Initially, the reaction, from many - and more than a minority - was that it was wack. That's why he did such a 180 flip, followed trends and apologised / Recovery. I'm not saying that is what Relapse, Campaign Speech & No Favours are. I'm saying that was the mixed reaction, and Em has his ear to that, and gets worried now and changes his s--- if he doesn't get the right response. You could even see it with 'Richard' feature prior to MMLP2. He hinted at it by referring to himself as Ike again and a more MMLP-ish flow and content. And when that got a positive response - Paul thanked fans for the reception to the verse, on Twitter. Then he did MMLP2 in that lane. So the reactions to Campaign Speech and No Favours could very well be holding things up, as he could have changed s---.
May 31, 2017 I'm pretty sure the few people on here who claim JMG is "right" are taking the piss and are in on the joke. That's what I'm thinking.
May 31, 2017 Nah, that would be very amateurish of Shady Records to announce something that's not certain. But then again, Shady Records is really amateurish.
Jun 1, 2017 They wanted to drop this Eminem Show anniversary s--- first, stop looking into s---. Money first always.
Jun 2, 2017 Campaign Speech seems more like filler to tide the fans over and buy some more time to work on the album. It doesn't seem as though he scrapped anything
