    This is f---ing bs.What the f--- are you all on about?
    Are you saying that joining a record label is selling out? should Eminem have f---ing stayed poor in his trailer park home? Or should he take an opportunity and try to sell his music to people
    Is MMLP selling out, because you might not notice, but the Title isn't SSLP2 it specifically dropped the shady name to show less shady and more em, without being too radically different. If you think he started getting emotional because he was selling out, then you are also a f---ing r-----, as the image you have in your head of slim shady was just an alter ego created to make the 6 detroit rappers form D12.

    HOW THE f--- DO YOU EXPECT LOSE YOURSELF TO SOUND WHEN IT WAS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO BE PART OF THE 8 MILE OST??

    As for Recovery, maybe, the f--s told him that relapse s----d and he realized that his personal, and emotional s--- sold more. Doing songs with pink and nicki minaj (well, that nicki song did have authentic eminem verses) was the only point one could ever argue he sold out. Songs like Not Afraid, were in his nature from long before, Rapping about window pane's and bitching in a video with rihanna was'nt, ill admit that. in fact, contrary to what you f--s think Relapse>Encore and Recovery. Yeah, he screamed, and sometimes without any flow, and with a s-----y jamaican accent at times, but the lyrical creativity was there, saying "hey, im not fully back, but im here somewhere, and im coming to r--- the game again" so recovery, where he was reteaching himself to rap had a few good points. And recovery was commercialized, to get him back in the game.

    That is me saying recovery was his worst album, as relapse might have been s--- overall, but his verses were authentic eminem, and were without flow, but d---, those bars. MMLP2 is his strongest point since TES. and in my opinion its actually a better album, but thats for another day.


    So yeah, he might have sold out at taht point, but 2001 em?? just f--- off

    He sold out when he prematurely ejaculated on Mariah. He used to prematurely ejaculate on white trash girls, but lost himself along the way.

    I don't think he's a sellout, I think Paul has a lot to do with it

    I just don't think he's got any drive anymore. I think he's just Paul's puppet and surrounded by yes men that tell him everything's great and a good idea. He's got nothing to rap about anymore as much as he claims hip hop is his life and is all he knows I think he's been pretty clearly on autopilot for a long time now.

    actually, the thing is, eminem's story, his daughter, his dad, his mom, his wife, his childhood, proof, Dr.dre, Royce. He already rapped about it all. As far as im concerned, his story as been told, and his modern s--- seems to mostly contain some from of reflection of his career.
    His ryhmes are still fresh though,

    Hence me saying he's got nothing to rap about anymore. A reflection is only fresh for so long. After a while it's like watching reruns and listening to it is as boring as it is for him creating it, hence him sounding pretty clearly on autopilot imo. MMLP2 is autopilot. Fans want old him, he just pushes out a sequel to try and make them happy. I'm pretty sure he even admitted he wasn't that into it and didn't care.

    I feel like you're trying to convince yourself more than you are me.
