    The f--- is going on with Marshall, he knew he couldn’t make any more songs so decided to poach songs that are old af just to “please the fans”

    Does he even had passion anymore? Even so the two songs are so irrelevant to 2017 eminem and don’t really make sense


    There is a CLEAR cut in arose when he revisits castle. Why is he talking about his overdose after gtc and dejavu

    Castle and Arose are great songs but not enough to save this travesty.

    8/10 songs.

    They are 100 percent old. He says the dates in the songs. No one can convince me otherwise.

    I think he probably liked the idea of the two songs for a while. I read this somewhere else:
    Castle and Arose are connected concept songs. Castle is him reading letters to Hailie at different times of his life, 1995, 1996, and 2007 and ends with him overdosing then Arose is him being in the hospital describing what he’s seeing and feeling during that, then at the end it goes back to the last verse of Castle as if he’s rewinding time and instead of taking the pills he flushes them

    I don't think they're old songs. I really believe he can sound like that with the proper vocals and layering

    they're not old songs, the dates are letters to hayley. god you people are braindead sometimes

    he needs to quit experimenting with new flows/rockrap/rick rubin and do what he knows he's good at for a final album

    I wish he could. If he did it would be best album by far. Depressed eminem is insane.

    This

    He's done it before. h---, he sounded like his recovery self on the last verse of remind me. And if tragic endings is new, he pulled if off there too

    Arose is 100% new, you can tell by how he's rapping. But the layers make it sound like old em. It's crazy how some extra vocals can make it that much better

    He can sound great again but he floods the album with too much rock rubin...literally

    I don't know how, or why, anyone would care if they were old. They're great. f---, give us an album full of old songs and it'll probably be a classic.
