    Looks like I'm alone in hoping its not like Recovery. I'll take double time off beat flows over yelling and corny punchlines any day.
    If it were up to me, then I'd take

    Relapse flow/beat selection
    MMLP2 lyricism
    Shady XV wit (as well as being current)
    And a handful of songs with Recovery/GoF type subject matter

    Y'all are thinking within the confines of Eminems limitations, just like him.

    I want him to pull something new out of his hat. I know he bases his flow around the drums so get drum-intensive producers that no one expects. FlyLo. Travi$. El-P. h---, f---ing Pharell could even work. Come out the gate's rapping about how he finally has stopped living in the past and is going forward with his music. Get dope lyricists that instead of sounding like Eminem copycats sound original, like Earl Sweatshirt. h---, both Lupe and Joey are poppin right now they'd work great.

    I want Eminem to quit being the old guy who is living off of past accomplishments and start actually accomplishing s--- again.

    Agree with this for most part but Recovery is as safe as safe gets. All the concepts in that album are extremely generic and have been done before. After two failed albums in Encore and Relapse, it's no conincidence that a generic pop/rap album in Recovery followed.

    I think 'he talks about the same thing' is a dumb thing to say. Most rappers talk about the same s--- all the time, even the best. Who cares as long as the songs are good, it's all about execution imo. I don't care what he raps about on his next album, it just has to be good. Having Xzibit and Dre involved makes me kind of excited, rather have them than Slaughterhouse and Yelawolf. But as for the direction, he needs to quit trying to recreate his older music and move on to something new, like he did on Recovery. Mmlp2 was a good album and Fine Line is a great song too but the guy used to be exciting and now he mostly makes safe music, he should be a little more experimental (in a good way ofc)
