As much as I disliked the accent at first, Relapse grew on me and has some gems on it I can still play to this day.
Stay wide awake

I know I'm in the minority, but I loved "Beautiful"

I never understood them signing to Shady. Industry was getting away from lyrical rap and Eminem wasn’t as big as he was and albums weren’t selling so i never expected them to sign and blow up and go platinum.
“Sorry EM but sometimes somethin greater comes later, and old heads don’t get it you Lebron effin haters” I don’t agree with any of that but it would be cool if mgk worded something like that
Lol I tried.. but there’s gotta be somethin better then complementing him on being the goat
I think all of the stuff he mentions is true and seriously calls into question Em's credibility and it would make for arguably the strongest diss track against Em ever. But with Joe, I also see a dude who's salty about a bad deal that I think most people knew was a bad deal going in. A lot of people didn't think Slaughterhouse should have signed to Shady. Joe mentions that Em uses artists as muses, he's right. But Em and Dre had already established that they're bad label people unless you're Dre, Em or 50. Just on Shady alone the graveyard includes Cashis, Bobby Creekwater and Stat Quo. Obie at least had some success early on but a lot of it was riding off of 50's 2003 wave. D12 rode early Em's success. Joe still signed the deal knowing that and from the jump had issues. I put a lot of that blame on him. Maybe he was pressured because of the other members of Slaughterhouse but he has to take some blame for signing with a label that didn't have the greatest rep.
Yes and no... There's substance of what they want..........I honestly believe that D12 was only successful because of Em features and slaughterhouse never had a chance in this day and age of rap ...
Let's face it, there is a diminishing market for content and technical rappers ... The mainstream love given to Em because he was white and technically better than any rapper ever, does not translate today ... You have to have "club songs" in today's world and also watered down content ...
Remember when you could listen to a CD and know off jump what songs were thrown on the record to push sales through radio exposure? I would be mad as **** with My Name Is types even though it was catchy as hell because Em would SLAUGHTER the rest of his album ... Same with old Jay H to the Izzo type songs ...
I dont want to sound old but I'm seeing this generation as completely uninterested in substance ... Whther it's rap or video games or social media ... Kids want catchy songs, preferably with an accompanying dance routine, that they dont have to think too much about ...
very well said.
Budden blames his failure on Em when its just the ebs and flows of the industry. Remember when "street cred" mattered. When if you didn't write your raps you were a poser and your career was done. That was the era that was the time. We slowly have transitioned into a new era. And there were casualties along the way like Slaughterhouse and Budden. The kids these days aren't checking an Em album anyway. Maybe some but 14-20 year olds im sure are more pressed for some new Lil Uzi Vert then anything Em or slaughterhouse would ever have to offer.
Again budden seems butt hurt per usual that Em is wild successful and he never was even though he thinks technically he is a better rapper (which really mean's nothing because there are a ton of gifted rappers that never get as big as em...or even budden) i haven't listened to the budden podcast in full yet...might not...he annoys me when he gets on his high horse even though he does make valid points at times
Shut up with 1. Weak as bars 2. Suggesting Lebron is better. LoL“Sorry EM but sometimes somethin greater comes later, and old heads don’t get it you Lebron effin haters” I don’t agree with any of that but it would be cool if mgk worded something like that
I hope so, cause this **** taking long. I would of have thought he had joint for everyone he dissed. As soon as the came back, within minutes release the rebuttal. Marketing ....Em working on an mgk diss on some thanos ****
No one is really saying Joe Budden is going to lyrically wash EM. The thing Joe does in his battles is use content and facts to get under people skins. So he would come at Em on some therapeutic stuff and examine EM like a therapist.I’m 33 years old from The Bronx (NY) and this is a serious question, what are all these lyrical Joe Buddens songs I keep hearing about?
I keep hearing that Joe is gonna wash Em, but what is that based on? When I think of lyrical rappers from the NYC area around Joe’s age I think: Jada, Fab, Papoose, Juelz, Lloyd Banks, Cam’ron, and even 50 to a certain extent. IJS
Em spits 30 bars directed at MGK and it isn’t a diss?yall act like Em was really trying to kill MGK in that verse. he mainly said dont comment on my daughter, and i saw you tried to sneak diss, you dont want it...
It Wasn't even a diss. And with what he said he said it in a lyrical flow way...
Come on yall have heard Em disses before... this was not one of them.
