Jul 12, 2024 This was definitely an album for long-time fans. He gave us all aspects of Em we've seen over the years into one conceptual package to make it all work. That christopher reeves song has got to be old though ... like encore era old (perhaps on purpose) but the beat, drugged voice, content, all sounds like a track from the vault.
Jul 12, 2024 I'm about to start my third listen through but there was somewhere where it sounded like a few words didn't sound the same as the rest of the bar, like a different voice. Probably that one, so perhaps he originally had a different name there in 2004 but decided to change it now?
Jul 12, 2024 How do you know man ? At least say, it could be the same. It's very unlikely he'd put a song 20 years old to this but whatever, there is no proof of that lmao.
Jul 12, 2024 Well okay you wanna fat shame b---- Two can play that game You wanna judge people? Matter of fact, ain't you the same one who hated bullies calling you bad names? Then you turn around and did the exact same? This is hard
Jul 12, 2024 I love the choruses, production, and concept but d--- Em just really struggles on these beats
Jul 12, 2024 Encore Em (pre new recording sessions after the leak) had such a swag to him man, so effortless in the way he raps. Dope.
Jul 12, 2024 You created me to say everything you didn’t have the balls to say GC2 top 3 on here easily
Jul 12, 2024 What do you mean? The bar starts with him telling critics why he ain’t Mr. Nice guy. And who else is as evil as him. He says P.Diddy, and the next one who asks him is getting thier a--- beat like Cassie. She suffered years of abuse from Diddy. Thats the bar
Jul 12, 2024 Absolutely fire. Anyone feel like it's not his last album though? Before it came out I thought it would be but on his last album I'd expect a song to the fans and a song with Dre and 50 and stuff. Just didn't have that last album feel to it? Or is it just me?
Jul 12, 2024 Great album, have to listen more though. I'm 2 listens in atm. Did Shady die tho, or was it just a dream? And why did When I'm Gone play in the background, is it cuz that's where he first killed Shady?
Jul 12, 2024 What were the other Encore titles floating around at the time? I remember there were a couple more aside from just Christopher Reeves. One was with Nate Dogg. Maybe one of them is used in the beginning of Renaissance
Jul 12, 2024 It's amazing how nothing changes. Revival had Castle, people here called it old. He had Stepping Stone on Kamikaze, people said it's an old one from prime era. Now it happens with the songs on this one. People want him to sound like him oldself when he does, you think it's old. Then why do you want that ? Obv you don't think he's capable of. Maybe the whole album was old and he dubbed some lines, changed them and released them lmao. It's annoying
