    Sooo....
    Eminems best songs on his albums are usually the ones with actual content and not just the guy spitting random s---. The older he has gotten the more and more he has become a recluse and the more he has stayed away from the spotlight. Back in the day deep/dark eminem songs were songs like The Way I Am, Cleaning Out my Closet, No Apologies, When i'm Gone ect.. these are loaded with actual content.

    Fast forward to Recovery/Relapse..
    He had actual subject matter(where he wasn't fabricating stories) for songs like Talking 2 Myself, GTC, Deja Vu, Beautiful, You're Never Over, 25 To Life & Not Afraid (To an extent)

    Then MMLP2 where his "I really dont have that much s--- to talk about stage" kicked in.
    Bad Guys second part was great and talked about fame ect.
    Headlights was closure to his mother
    a------ was kinda a reflection on his career
    Legacy was a reflection on his childhood and growing up...

    Now what
    We dont really know enough about Ems personal life for him to make us connect to something he creates. Since MMLP2 hes made songs like GoF and Fine Line which kinda talk about something (Fame). Em has admitted hes kinda recycling the same format now with the motivational s---. Can we really expect an LP with songs that are just recycled motivational s--- and him bitching about fame with the occasionally punchline fun song?

    just imagine if KnD was a lead single.. :lmaooo::nahgirl:keep that...


    Hes touched on..
    His kids
    Love for kim still
    Drug addiction
    Proof
    Depression
    Mom
    Childhood
    Impact On Rap on a godawful beat/hook
    Not having s--- to talk about
    Fame
    Dad
    The Way I Am (Entire song is self explanatory)
    Relapse & Encore sucking
    Overcoming Drugs...


    i cant think of anything else he can do to sound fresh

    No Apologies is so overrated considering half that song were old freestyle verses. He should make a song about having nothing to talk about. I think he already did that though lol

    Most of the song was recorded before the freestyle

    Was supposed to close The Eminem Show

    It's about execution tho. Most rappers talk about the same s---, doesn't have to matter

    On topic - personally, I think he'll use this project as one last winning lap to clear his mind

    Makes sense, wasn't Stimulate supposed to be on there too. One of his best songs ever in my opinion, and blends perfectly with the atmosphere of the album.

    Stimulate got replaced with say goodbye to hollywood

    Personally, I don't have too many complaints about that

    We got another classic song :)

    It's certainly a million times better than drips

    But when listening to the album straight through, is the transition good?

    I think that's one of his most underrated tracks.

    On topic, I think he still has what it takes to make great concept tracks, cause Recovery was filled with them. I'd like to see him make more attempts at story telling, which he was low key fantastic at earlier in his career. I say he makes a collaboration album since he's pretty good at killing it when there's competition on the track lol

    Another thing to note about recovery was the execution

    I think everybody can safely agree that disregarding the yelling - this is the best we've gotten since The Eminem Show

    Wouldn't be surprised if he realizes this and transitions to a similar style for the new album

    yeah i think so like Say Goodbye to hollywood which is where he talks about leaving hollywood. "Please dont cry for me when im gone for good..." fades into pshht hey listen... "I love my job" makes him seem like a hypocrite and then in Stimulate he goes on how he loves rap and hes here to be the entertainer then it goes into Without Me and sets the album back on track..

    if this makes any sense
