    Revival, the lack of promotion for the album, the roll-out, the horrible singles, this Chloraseptic remix... This whole g.d. thing was a mess.

    Never have I been less hyped for an Eminem album coming into this.

    From the weak material he's been putting out since his last album, ShadyXV, Southpaw etc.. I really had low expectations for this one. But still, there was some hope.... Will he somehow regain a normal flow or make a decent song again? There ought to be a few good tracks on the whole album I told myself.

    But no. This whole Revival thing was an epic failure.

    I also feel bad for the stans who can't accept the reality of it, and still force anything Eminem puts out down their throats rather then just taking a step back and admitting this is garbage music.

    Something is up. I can't figure it out but, this whole rollout either got derailed by the reception of "Walk on Water", or, Em's team is playing chess with us

    I just.... There is just something odd about Em perfectly leaving Chains off till later to ALSO THEN perfectly setting himself up to deliver a classic verse. A classic, verse.

    h---, you can make a argument that this verse was recorded before the album dropped. Crazy reach but everything he said could still pertain to 2017.

    Idk. It's either a perfect storm or a well crafted "Walt from season 4 of Breaking Bad" kind of plan.

    Too many things are off but some are right.

    Em is playing chess like B Rabbit. He needed a reason to get mad again. Next album will be called Redemption.

    I starting to believe in the theory of revival being a promo album for the next

    All these theories fall apart with the fact that Revival is a solid album. Some great to classic songs and a couple of misses.. but every album has them.

    Im fully convinced now that Revival was for his female fans...theres been a lot of forced gender equality goin on and I think Em catered to women this time...why? I dont know...My guess Skylar

    I dont know if all was planned or not but Calling Revival A failure its because youre braindead... Believe, Castle, Arose, River for me are f---ing crazy songs i even say Castle its the best eminem song since The Eminem Show... You hear that s--- and you think youre back to 2003 classic... Framed its another
    Crazy song... Revival had bad songs but classic songs also its like Encore for me i cant call ANY EMINEM ALBUM A FAILURE YOU CLOWN
