    Wow, never noticed that but yeah you're right. There were some last decisions made in the end for sure. It also plays a little differently during the verses.
    Somewhere I wrote/heard that this song was made shortly after MMLP when all the trouble was going on, so maybe the first song for TES.
    It's also been said there was a different version first.

    Nah because Kamikaze did perfectly fine without the promo. Context matters. And marketing is very important, but the album also needs to be impactful for the marketing to mean anything. Example, The Nicki album is going to fall off the charts week 2 or 3 even though it was marketed well, because it sucks

    True. Side B also had songs that should have been singles and deserved their own videos. Stuff like Zeus or Book Of Rhymes.

    Not to mention that the only time he left the house to promote the album was a Fortnite event lol We haven’t even seen him perform songs from that era 3 years after :scaryem:

    Em used other rappers for promo. Just like Game did with him :useyourhead: plus one of his few serious interviews released in parts. Back in the days he wouldn’t say much, just act goofy until Paul said it was time to leave and the interview was over lmao

    Gnat was a terrible single choice.
    Killer was a dope one though. But no video for that
    Higher also was a great choice.

    Gnat was a good single and video
    Killer should have been a single. He ruined the remix rapping fast for no reason (again) killing the song’s momentum.

    It’s over for rap this year. Hope Em, Kanye and Wayne can do some CPR next year and revive it.

    God awful videos too. Higher was probably the worst video of his career. Very boring eras

    The wild thing is. Eminem could have the highest selling album of the last decade in any genre. But chose to not even release anything at all.

    if he would of used the superbowl hype then like a side b with fornite. Sheesh all mighty.

    At least they had that sports deal, so it wasn’t a 100% useless lol Darkness, Gnat and Godzilla are perfect videos though.
