I'm sure there are Eminem fans around here somewhere. What do you guys think of his new release, Berzerk? IMO, it's a pretty nice throwback. I think going back to his Slim Shady alter ego for this was neato.

Anyone who hasn't seen/heard -

Saw him live a few weeks ago, he put on a good show but he was clearly miming. I still like him but his new stuff is definitely worse than his old stuff

Hate to say it but the dude cared less and did just overall better songs when he did drugs.

Berzerk is a definitely different from his other stuff, but I still like it. The Rick Rubin/ Beastie Boys style is good. People needa wait to hear the other stuff from the new album before they talk shit tho. But yeah like Dunder said he will never be as good as he was when he was on drugs.

Just gotta wait till Nov. 4th till the album release.

His Recovery album, which is also the first album since he quit taking drugs, was pretty good though. At least IMO it was.

his singles have always been made for casuals that just wanna hear a catchy beat with shallow lyrics. wait for his album to drop for the hidden gems like almost famous, despicable, and underground.

Eminem is meh, his music is too shallow and not very enjoyable in general IMO.

Try Jurassic 5, Gang Starr, Jedi Mind Tricks or Large Professor if you want to hear some proper hip hop with head-bobbing beats and witty/smooth lyrics.

EDIT: I should probably explain myself better. Eminem's general jist in many of his tracks seems to be either "look at me I'm white, blonde I rap and I don't give a fuck about anything. I'm so randum and qvurki lel" or "my life is shit I hate my life fuck everything" so once you've heard 2/3 of his songs, you've basically heard them all. His lyrics in general are rather simple and the beats are very pop-sounding. His tracks are what I refer to as "chewing gum rap" because it's like a piece of chewing gum. You just chew it for a little while and spit it out because it loses its flavour/you get bored.

I used to be a fan of Eminem myself and I'll be the first to concede that he's made some good music in the past, but he's way past his prime and should start his long overdue retirement instead of grasping at straws for another 30 seconds in the limelight.

TL;DR - Go home dude, you're old.

Ah, I can see why people get their panties in a bunch about that. Well to each their own I guess.

Edited my first post a little explaining why I dislike Eminem for anyone that cares.

You really don't realize how much of a hipster you are, do you.
