Wtf do the people at shady records even do? They have one artist who puts out music every 3-5 years.

Revival was so bad it drove shady records out of business

#RIPSHADY #15YEARS

Confirmed, the Shady Records office in New York will be closed this week, all activities will be moved to the Def Jam offices, also in NY, that does not mean that Eminem has ended the label, but it will soon be merged with the giant, for now, Eminem becomes the president of Shady, making the biggest decisions, and Paul Rosenberg will follow up, but being president of Def Jam. #SHADYVSEVERYBODY #TRUSTUS #BITTERSWEET #DEFJAM

Oh, is that so? Hmmmm, let's start with Relapse shall we. We made you!?!? Someone ELSE found that song from an artist in Connecticut and gave it to Eminem to record verses over for his single. Hook was already attached.(The beginning of the Eminem collab system.)

Recovery, love the way you lie. Written by Skylar grey and Alex da kid. Song was handed to Eminems label. His label then sent the song to Rihanna to record the hook.

Mmlp2, Monster. Same thing. Some chick wrote the track, got into label execs hands. They send it Rihanna, goes back to Eminem.

Revival, Pop stars are asked and encouraged by the label, NOT Eminem to write and submit pop songs for his upcoming album.

Not a single one of these stories mentions Eminem personally reaching out and asking for this s---. People on his label scout and find these songs, hand them to Eminem and say, record. I'm not saying Eminem is against this. I dont think he is. Its not his doing though. They tell him what to do. This is how it WORKS. During MMLP, you really think that was all Eminems idea? Or was Dre there telling him, go the f--- off, go hard, you will be huge. Eminem even said dre told him to change his vocal style for mmlp and lose the nasaly voice. Now he has wrong people telling him to make pop songs. Major labels decide everything. Read your history. In the late 90s early 2000 dozens of bands, on top of the world at the time, broke up and were banished from their labels because of this, walking away from music when at their highest popularity just because of standards they had for themselves. Interscope was the hardest label to get albums released on, unless the album had a huge poppy single to go with it.(Limp Bizkit was exploited and used in every way here) Several of those bands came forward 10 to 15 years later and said the labels were forcing them to make poppy music, the bands had pride and said no, labels released them.(Reveille, Spineshank, HedPe) It's all business. ALL artists, yes even Eminem, have a deadline they have to make for their album to be completed and with that package their needs to be a hit record. If the artist is having a hard time making a hit on their own, or finding a direction for the album, the label will step in and do it for you. But I'm the r-----ed one huh? Or maybe you are just uneducated in what you are speaking about. Would love to hear your counter argument with points and examples as well. I'll wait.

Yup. Em’s spirit haunts the studios when he’s gone. His picture jumps off a poster and just floats through the halls and f---ing goes through the walls like the ghost of Lou Rawls.

Means Eminem has free control over his music now. No more pop music. We all know the label forced him to make revival. Says Eminem makes all decisions now, meaning someone else made them before. When he's back he will be at their throats. He told us that.

Where's Bobby Creekwater Greatest Hits on vinyl?

I hadn't thought of it like that yet...but it's true. Interscope won't be breathing down his neck any longer, demanding a poppy single, or steering his music to have more of this, or less of that. This really is reason to be extremely optimistic for Em's future work.

This....Some artists get dropped by their label mid tour and told to go home if their record doesn't perform well. They don't want to have to do that, if the label feels like Eminem isn't capable of making a good sounding album on his own(think relapse) they will intervene. Even arch nemesis Joe Budden admits it's not Eminem, it's the people behind him pushing the agenda. Eminem barely makes any new music. So, when he does, it's a pretty big deal for the label to maximize his profits as much as possible. How do you do that? Ed sheeran, Pink, Kelahni, Beyonce. You take those features out, remove the additions by Skylar and Alex and Rick, you are left with an entire album of Framed and eat my worms. You think interscope wants that? I honestly don't know what songs are worse. In Eminems case it might be better to have the label make the album for him. We will see when next album comes out produced by Dre.

Eminem will not be back with more of the same .

I don’t think people understand just how greedy labels are and how much they don’t give a single f--- about the artist. They care about money and nothing more. And when you can no longer make them money they drop you.

Now def jam is the next to close its doors .
I just can't see Paul Rosenberg taking good care of it

 

Mar 29, 2018

As long Em keeps releasing classics like Revival. All will be fine in this world.
