    If we got emotional minimalist Rubin, and not 80's rap rock Rubin...the album would be great.

    Eminem might as well CONFIRM that he reads sectioneighty and reads all the comments people make about him on forums/social media

    One thing for sure, is that the Revival interviews are the least awkward and most natural I've seen Em post hiatus. He truly sounds like his old self again, but more mature and grown.

    Where was this Em on most of Revival?

    OH MY GOD. I take my words back.

    Also why does he think people are so stupid that they're not picking up his compound syllables rhyming technique? Don't you guys feel offended by that?

    The Rhyme Or Reason sample was a safe choice, cuz it's been used before and it's a great sample. Black Hippy used it on a song called "Rolling Stone" and it was great there too.

    Berzerk was cool. If it had been the only Rubin song Em did along with Rhyme Or Reason, it probably would be received with alot more love then it is. The chorus was great.

    Eminem is not the same person anymore guys.....don't know what else to say to "revive hope" in you guys.....Being 26, suddenly making millions, suddenly selling out arenas, suddenly getting all sorts of attention gives you a creative energy that being 45 years of age and just sitting at home with your $150 million does not give you. It is impossible for the fire to still be there.

    Also remember, Eminem blew up when there was no such thing as social media. He could rip on celebrities and literally had the entire platform to himself. Memes weren't even a thing back then. Eminem literally had a captive audience all to himself that is impossible for an artist to have in this day an age to the extent that he did. MMLP1 drops today he is not doing 10 million. s---, if GRODT dropped today, 50 cent is doing 3 million, tops. Most people would actually probably reject 50 cent if he came out today due to changes in the culture.

    Eminem is never going to go to TRL and the shut down Times Square because the crowds are so big. People don't even leave their houses for s--- like that anymore like they used to.

    Also, paying to hear Eminem rap about his problems in year 2000 America when you were 15 might have been really appealing - well today those fans are 32, the country is far different, and they have their own d--- problems to worry about.

    Those days are gone guys, and never coming back. Em's different and so are you.

    Stop embarassing yourself. You wouldn't even know what an actual classic is even if it were shoved up your a---.

    Calling Revival a classic. Oh god please

    Do yourself a favor, find the nearest bridge and jump off of it.
