    I believe they already had Curtain Call in the plan and decided to save it for CC, not cut from Encore cause it was a bad track, it was just a smarter move to put it on CC. Just my speculation

    @henzINNIT the discussion we had earlier... if he put trash songs above When Im Gone... he's also capable of leaving a great song w Nate Dogg off... hmm

    I bought you this coin, it says number one dad... this song was always so corny to me.

    That said, you make some valid points.

    it's literally proven in the video. He didn't magically return to Encore look and weight and photo s---t location in the middle of recording. Plus some lines start on video a and end in video b so the latter one was definitely a redub and they cut it together

    When I’m gone means he knew he was gonna die and get cloned telling his daughters it’s okay daddy’s in heaven watching over you. So sad to think about.

    So he recorded a music video for it before recording the song and just happened to perfectly lip sync the words. Makes sense..

    Again I agree in theory, but it is not the case with 'When I'm Gone'. He sounds noticeably different in the song and it's clearly from a later time. The evidence presented here is faulty. Em looks like s--- in the entire video. It wasn't recorded for Encore, Curtain Call just recycled a lot of the same imagery. It's not hard to dig up props from an album photo session a year before. .

    Thats crazy, incredible accomplishment for a hip hop artist tbh. Regardless of what you think of his current music, to come out at a time when the majority of white rappers were constantly disregarded and looked down upon, to have that sort of impact, sales and longevity and earning the respect of most of his peers is remarkable in itself. Nobody can take that from him and hes made his mark in the history books.

    I see a lot of people here would love an album with a smilar vibe SSLP had. I do not think, however, such album would be received possively by critics and general public at this point of Em's career. And it would be justified, to my opinion. It would be just another do-what-fans want move from him. However, there is a way to solve the problem.
    His next album could be a 2-part album dealing with serious social issues, where first part would include only goofy, grotesque songs spit by Slim Shady, and the other part would contain songs done by Eminem/Marshall which deal with the same topics in a serious manner. Imagine if, for example, "Insane" was paired with a serious song about child molestation.
    It would be a way for Em to goof around and create some serious content at the same time. Also to stay artistic, as the whole thing would be packed in a nice concept.
    I bet such album would get highly positive reception and would please the fans, too (since it would be "a little bit of something for everybody" but not a mess Revival became.)
    Also, @TheDarkView should be dissed on both parts of the album, meaning he is a joke but will be handled seriously.
