    They didn't take the bait. No problem.
    You win some, you lose some.
    Album's still fire though.

    I wasn't old enough to feel them in 2005. I look back at 'em as beautiful and sad songs that I understood too late and by too late I mean after growing up with them and listening to them 100 times. it's like a sad movie you start to find relatable after a while but you already saw it so many times.
    Temporary is new and came out at the right time for me. Castle wasn't nearly as sad as this although it was a better song

    there was never a bait. A bait is saying it and not immediately aftwr saying ”tihi i might get cancelled now good luck”

    its just regular psychology if you try to provoke someone and tell them ”btw i am just trying to provoke you and knowing your character you will cry!!” People will just roll their eye.


    Now if he Said the things he did without putting the safety net, gen z and all would go nuts. However, he shouldnt just diss people relevant ages ago, slim used to provoke the biggest, Britney in her prime.

    Imagine him dropping a line like when he compares himself to Elvis for making black music white, Imagine he Said that about Taylor Swift for stealing country; and dissing Taylor.

    There would be 2M TikToks about how he is s--- and needs to be cancelled but also, everyone who hates Taylor is his target audience so would be win win

    Doing a car test. This will be my first time I listen to the album in full since Friday. I voted 1 after 1st listen. Definitely not a 1. I’m on Lucifer, and I already know how I feel about Antichrist, and fuel. Brand new dance is the only song I’m unsure about.

    Thas factuals.

    Plus it's always mainly when whatever is said is at contrast to the person's usual character, or position, i.e. a news anchor says the n word behind the scenes or something like that... somebody who's supposed to be prim n proper... and it's like, THIS PERSON SHOULDN'T SAY THAT ESPECIALLY, LOOK! etc.

    Or a comedian, because comedian's are making people laugh (not that Em ain't, but not to the same degree - like crowds of people in tears of laughter) in hoards and crowds - in their eyes - 'at the expense of' @ xGroup, lol;

    But, Em is just begging for it. And he's been around so long saying even worse s--- that it's like... they know he ain't going nowhere, plus they're used to him, he's almost... taken the shock away by his existence for so long.

    Gervais tries the same s--- mostly to no avail. He does get more of a reaction, lately, but it's kind of similar to Em... he basically comes out going 'ooh, look, midgets... women... trans? gays? can't talk about all them can I? Look, I am, don't cancel me :emoji_wink:, I think the daring, confrontational aspect of it stops people wanting to it's like a reverse psychology lol, but if somebody DOESN'T want to be cancelled...

    All of a sudden they're pounced on. Bc, those PC f---s are weak opportunist, virtue signaling s--- heads. That's why - you ever notice, if somebody is up on the cancellation ring for saying something... and they apologise - people don't go 'okay fair enough, cool', they go 'SEE!! HE IS A s--- HEAD! CANCEL! CANCEL!', like a f---ing r-----ed mob.

    ALSO, finally - Em ain't saying much, lol. Like, what did he say about trans? He said basically that's their business, and can't we show solidarity with a wristband? Lmao...

    He didn't go hard enough in my opinion. I'm not saying he should be hateful to those groups for the sake of it. But, Shady should! If that's his whole concept, that 'mr pure evil is coming to just stir any pot for the sake of it', well then... as Shady, he shouldn't be like mildly explaining himself and apologetic after just saying 'hey but like, i don't wanna have sex with you but like I'm still cool with it!', yeah wow, line up the protests!

    Kamikaze was a monster. Look at those pure sales with no bonus tracks version and being on par with a 19 track album with less tracks on it.

    this is it. This is brilliant and why it will win a Grammy. Makes so much sense with the ”infinite” loop in regular or reverse order. This theory also approves it as a tribute album since it covers every stage his albums went through, Infinite (the concept is infinite) sslp, mmlp, tes, encore, relapsing, refilling, recovery, mmlp2, revival, kamikaze, making music to be murdered be, and the death of slim shady, and then repeat.

    wow wow, eminem needs to confirm this!!
