    There's nothing wrong with saying they're better if their music appeals to them more.

    I don't think anyone is arguing about them being better lyrically than Eminem.

    Everyone's taste in music is different. Saying an artist's music is better than the music from your favorite artist is normal.

    Except for Marsh of course who only likes whatever is most popular.

    See, that's what i've been trying to figure out with all these posts and still can't get an answer.

    What the f--- does it matter whether it charts or not? Does the music sound better to your ear the more hits it gets?

    It's just weird.

    Nobody in their right mind gives a single f--- how well it charts besides the label and the artist. As a fan, liking the music is the only thing that should matter to you.

    How many artists who’ve been around since the ‘90s do you see charting high these days? Especially in rap?

    I don't even know what you expect me to say lmao, if you listen to a big a--- artist like Em you want him to be up there and enjoy his peaks man, it's fun, it feels good.

    How did you guys feel during the whole MTBMB Side A and B era? Cause it was boring as f--- for me. And don't blame the pandemic lol artists kept going.

    I think it's different, you don't see artists like Nas or Jay drop hits like that, Jay did have some huge songs last decade though, like Empire State of Mind. Wayne fell off, but at least he stays on the charts by murdering features for other artists that stay aroun like g--- g---

    I like mainstream rappers, always did, but for example I don't give a f--- about Donda XD, he can keep it, just like JIK and JIK Dre remixes. I also don't like trap, which makes up for like 90% of mainstream rap now, you guys can keep the Uzi's, the Cart's and the Travis tbh. So I don't only bump what's popular at all.

    No, as any normal music fan I don't care at what number an album charts at. I listen to an artist for the music, not for how much they sell.

    It's okay to want to see an artist succeed but for you, it's like you can't form an opinion without factoring in popularity.

    Hey! You folks keep forgetting Venom having 520 000 000 views on YT! It's not half as big as Godzilla but still great numbers. A big hit. It's crazy how everybody here is not satisfied. Even most singles from Astroworld can't compete with those songs but you still complain and daresay Em no longer has hits.
    I mention Venom just in case sb pulls out argument that Godzilla is big just because of Juice.

    People care about the charts too, it's constantly used in fans online battles lol remember how hurt Em was when Revival flopped? being big you expect him to do good. But he's 50 anyway, we're lucky he didn't retire yet.

    It just goes to show how much Em hasn’t missed lately. Now some of you are grasping at straws that he isn’t releasing chart toppers lmao.

    f--- the chart positions…. The music has been amazing!

    I dreamed of being that "cool kid" even if it meant acting "stupid".

    He doesn't even have to do much, dude is doing good without even trying. Imagine if he had promoted Side A and B.
