    The youth aren't the only one's who buy his albums. He has a mass following. He's a megastar. There's 6000 pages in the album discussion thread that's full of mostly under 25 year olds which makes your point moot. He was old when he dropped Relapse and MMLP 2 also.

    the youth dictate rap sales in 2017. Times have changed. 30 year olds don't know if Eminem is dropping a project in 2017 anymore. He can't make surprise releases or do low promotion because his core fanbase is a lot older now and don't spend as much time following him around. 6000 filled with mostly under 25 year olds? How many people post on this website? You seriously think sxn80 represents the average rap fan? the average eminem fan? Ur delusional. And relapse dropped in 09. MMLP2 dropped in 2013. Entirely different. U aren't selling well in 2017 unless u have singles that appeal to the youth. It's a fact. Check the numbers. Eminem is not relevant the way yall believe. People dont follow him the same way. Yall are diehard fans and think yall are even close to a representation of the average fan. Trump did not k--- his sales lmfao.

    Yes he is. That doesn't just go away. Michael Jackson was probably the biggest pop star ever and he put out plenty of average to well below average albums after his big hits and was never not considered a mega star

    You're not reading my posts. I didn't say that Trump was the only reason...and I agreed that the singles they pushed were stupid

    If Em wants to sell million a week, he'd need to mumble and dumb down his bars on some s-----y a--- repeated trap beat because that's what youth likes today.

    People dont buy albums in 2017. They are listening them online. He is the best in Spotify, Apple Music and Tidal right now.

    Ok. Let me edit my post: 95% of why Eminem's sales flopped is because the youth don't f--- with him
    ur the worst kind of eminem fan. U dont even listen to rap. Stop talking.

    The promotion was very trash

    Singing is different, Em's fanbase is split between lame white people, foreign people, and rap fans, and MJ had the youth by his side
