    The rest Em is s---. Kamikaze you can feel he’s in late 40s and just trying hard to be savage.

    I don't care what their relationship is like, I still don't see why Em can't send these people a verse for their projects. That Kuniva album 'Bando Theory' was pretty cool, and I wouldn't be one of only 7 people who think that if Em was featured. It's really not a lot to give in my view.

    Is D12 world the worst drop of quality in the history of mankind?

    Legit, it baffles me. Even if he doenst want to do d12 specifically, werent these guys your friends for like years?

    He found time to send pink verses and s--- like that, not even for his own pop gain between mmlp2 and revival, I genuinely dont get why he wouldnt want to jump on a track with swifty/ kuniva or even bizarre, here or there or send a verse their way. So weird.

    D12 World is not only terrible, but almost entirely forgettable. Revival-tier album tbh. But at least Revival is sort of interesting because of the context surrounding its release and the transition to kamikaze. I'd rather listen to all the fart and puke songs on Encore than almost everything on D12 World.

    When Em scrapped Relapse 2 he could have literally asked the others to plug in verses and release it as a D12 project. No-one would have complained. But I get why he'd want to be more involved and invested in a project than that. Sending verses though? He must have 100's each year. It's crazy to me that old friends put out music and he doesn't want in.

    The timing is just too convinent. Came outta left field with songs that feel unfinished and beats they downloaded off the net around the time the tape leaked

    I know im in the vast minority here but I like a lot of D12 World. Its pales in comparison to Devil's Night (plus, nostalgia probably playing a big part) but cut out the really bad songs and there's a bunch of fun, reckless, over-the-top dumb s---. Em took a step back from being front and center, and the others couldn't really carry the rest of it, but i find it almost as fascinating a listen as Encore. You can hear Em starting to come off the rails but he's still got that natural gifted flow and sound

    Also god d--- Em's flow on Git Up >>>>

    Pretty much.. it’s like u said, they had exactly one album of gold material and then they were done.. and they had the opportunity to be on MMLP, biggest album of the year, biggest rapper, biggest artist, the buzz were huge, Devils Night were great, and then it was Poof, and they were gone.. features and album from 2002 and later just wasnt the same..
    i mean, they had 13 year old girls in europe buying their album and concert tickets..
    they fell off bad

    Em has 13 year old girls everywhere buying his albums and concert tickets. The same could also be said About Em verses 2002 onward aswell, it’s like after the gun chargers everything changed tbh.

    To be fair to the rest of D12, the group had no chance when the most prominent member of the group pretty much ditched them after album one. Making Em a member had massive short-term benefits but f----- them in the long run.

    I know, nothing strange when it comes to Em, my point was, D12 was so huge in 2001 that 13 year old girls were buying their album, not Ems, D12s..

    Bizarre has talked about how the group was more confident with D12 World in that they were vocal about beats they didn't like etc so it makes you wonder if Devil's Night was more of an Eminem project and is that the reason why it was a success, if D12 World sounded more like an Eminem project would it have been received better? I think Devil's Night was a great album and they were very popular in 2001. I know Jeff Bass talked about when they finished up the Marshall Mathers LP he moved straight on to the D12 project. I think it would be interesting for fans to really look at the release dates of all the Shady Records projects as well as Eminem's projects and look at the release dates and remember Eminem used to always talk about how they pushed the deadlines. I don't think a lot of fans realise just how much recording was done in such a short space of time from the Slim Shady LP to The Marshall Mathers LP to Devil's Night to The Eminem Show to Obie Trice's Cheers to 50's Get Rich or Die Tryin' to Encore. You're talking about constant recording sessions with less than a year between many of these projects. I'd love to know just how many songs were recorded but never used and we know that there are many songs on Devil's Night were other members recorded verses but Eminem decided which verses would be used so they must have plenty of unheard material to release. It's just a shame that it seems like as one project is finished, that particular artist waits in line for the next one to release theirs and why couldn't they all just keep recording together? Or maybe they did maybe through the Obie and 50 sessions there was tons of D12 songs recorded and tons more solo Eminem songs recorded, who knows. I think D12 definitely could have had an album out in 2003 and rode that Eminem Show and Cheers and Get Rich or Die Tryin' wave and had the same standard of production and writing. I think by the time 2004 rolled around a lot had changed and I would say the same thing about Obie and 50.


    And who knows maybe too much time has passed now to release old music. These anniversaries would be the perfect time to release unheard music from everyone but someone somewhere clearly has said no.And when you think about it, hip hop and rap aren't really genres were those kinds of releases happen. We see it with bands and pop groups and rock artists and a lot of big legacy artists from 40 and 50 and 60 years ago. We rarely ever see rappers releasing B-Sides or demos or alternate takes, different verses, different beats etc.There's no reason why any of these albums couldn't get the lavish box set treatment where it's 3 or 4 CDs and a DVD with a live concert and just really fill them up with rarities and unreleased music.

    Would have been great with all those demos and alternate recordings etc.
