New Eminem CD Encore - is amazing

[GonzoStyle]

You get an Eminem CD to hear something new, not the same old generic shit. He's goin the way of Rakim right now.

does it occur to you that you expect new shit because he was "new" compared to what was out there at the time, but maybe what he's putting out now is on a par with what he put out then, you've just raised your expectations and is it really one person's responsibility to have to keep doing something different?

I'll assume you haven't heard the album, I understand your whole argument and I am not saying I expect groundbreaking work but I know what to expect from eminem and I know what to expect from others.

This album was not on par with anything current nor anything he ever put out, this is the equivalent of reversing newtons theories and reverting back to a monkey. You take eminem from where he started with his first album and he's gone backwards with this album, if this album was his 1st album then I could understand.

Many people have only heard Just lose it and The bush song. Well "Just Lose It" is his pop track that he has had on every album, "my name is", "real slim shady", "without me". It's not bad and is a good club song and a funny video but its nothing new, it sounds beatwise atleast like the previous 3.

The Bush song is good and about 2 other songs out of the 20 are good.

4 out of 20 tracks.

But there are atleast 5 songs that are so fuckin awful, you just gotta hear how awful they sound. They will ruin anything he could have put out.

So until you have listened to the whole album, don't make blanket assumptions. Like I expect something new of him everytime and poor eminem can't concentrate and make new shit cause he's so stressed, he's a fuckin artist that gets paid millions, come up with a new idea or two. This album like I said is not on par with anything he's done even 10 years ago on his underground shit.

Not really, because Eminem has evolved from album to album, and each has it's own distinct sound, this album is still better than most of the shit that's being put out right now, but it's still not anywhere near to what we expect from Eminem.

I'm too lazy to look exactly what came out when Slim Shady LP was released, but at the time you had Outkast's Aquemini, Jay Z with Reasonable Doubt even Dr. Dre with Chronic 2001 all in the same year, and his cd still stuck out with My Name is and Guilty Conscience.

He really needs to just disappear for a few years and just write songs like he used to, and he really needs to stop producing his own beats.

[GonzoStyle]

You can NOT in any way compare his other 3 albums to this. His 2nd album was his best in my opinion, it was just classic, song after song. Some were funny, some were silly, some were club tunes, some were very deep and serious and some were psychotic, it was an awesome balance. His first major release the slim shady lp was also great, the lyrics were what we would grow to love him for, the wordplay the speed he raps at, the content, etc. His last album was great too, it had a nice mix of songs.

This album the first 5 tracks or so I would say are a regular eminem album, the songs are good, a couple are great. Once you get past that it becomes a very sloppy mix of songs, the delivery with which he raps is just fuckin sloppy and lazy, the beats are simple and repetitive. Then there are several songs which you'd basically expect some suburban white kid who got drunk one night and as a joke laid down a track who has not one shred of talent.

If you don't have anything good to put down on an album then wait, if it takes 5 years then wait 5 years, don't just put out something to put it out. Ofcourse there's gonna be tone deaf, tasteless kids who are gonna find someway to find genius in this album, they'll argue that his sloppy delivery and bullshit lyrics were his way of expressing his... bullshit!!! The album sucks, i'm not turning around and saying Eminem is a talentless flash in the pan, he's proven himself in both solo and group projects that he's among the best of all time, his legacy is secure.

But as a fan I also will say when he puts out shit, you can't just say dig shit when its shit.

da doing doing doiiiiiiiiiiing!

[IrishAlkey]

LA LA LA I'M NOT LISTENING!

[HollywoodJewMoses]

that's probably the best choice

[PatCooper]

I still think only 3 crappy songs.
And Dre produced both Meenie And Rainman.

[HollywoodJewMoses]

the problem isnt with the beats, the problem is with the lyrics.

i wasn't making any assumptions. i haven't heard the album, or any of them all the way through for that matter. just throwing a thought out there, it seemed to work...

[GonzoStyle]

I replied you won, you go k1dbritish

[crx girl]

well that was uncalled for. i was merely trying to stimulate the discussion.

I haven't heard the album...but this made me laugh. Calculus caused evolution!!!!

[GonzoStyle]

Yeah theres really no way for me to dance around that moronic mistake. Ok darwins theory skipped me as well, fuck I am such a complete moron, I apologize, I am actually more embarassed now than eminem should be for this album...

I think it was cause of those fuckin fig newtons I had...

[GonzoStyle]

I seriously feel like a complete fuckin moron now, it's really bothering me.

Like the time in 7th grade when we were reading Hamlet, then the teacher said she wanted to bring in the film. So the fuckin ass kiss that I was I said I could get the tape for her, she said "oh really? which version do you have?"... So with a smug fuckin voice I say "The one with Sir Stanley Laurel".... When I had realized I had no turned Laurence Olivier into the second half of Laurel and Hardy, I felt like a complete fuckin nimrod and she never fuckin let it go the rest of the school year, fuckin cunt!

[HollywoodJewMoses]

at least you didnt put out a new cd with a song titled "big weenie"

[GonzoStyle]

big weenie is fuckin gold compared to rain man.

[HollywoodJewMoses]

i find you offensive for finding me offensive, ok?

[GonzoStyle]

Sadly I guess it wasn't a joke...

[HollywoodJewMoses]

so depressing.

[Keyser Soze]

where can i find this piece of dogshit?
