    I remember listening when it first came out and typing up the lyrics to White America in Windows Media Player, took me like an hour :mjcry:

    Then the next time I opened WMP they were gone.

    ma n----- Em still killing charts... sad to see his newer music selling less.. but also glad so Em knows they don't appeal as much and he should change his formula

    If you replace Drips with Emulate and take D12 off of When The Music Stops it's a flawless album

    Back circa 2008, I was using windows movie maker to make a video using Eminem music videos and a separate song, and something messed up and it got deleted. I still frown about it to this day.

    Disorderly Progress What's cookin?

    Feb 11, 2017
    So good.

    It's the album which makes me realize - too - that it's not that he needs to just stick to one musical backdrop (which I used to think) in order for the album to sound consistent and not all over the place like MMLP2...

    It's just that he or whoever produces it needs to produce the whole thing - so there's a consistent spirit and touch you can hear in every beat.

    TES feels like maybe his most consistent album, yet it has straight piano s--- (Cleanin' out my closet), like a rappy disco s--- (Without Me), straight rap rock (Sing for the moment)... it's got so much s--- going on, even like a f---ing barn dance rap @ Square Dance, yet it all feels like one family of music. It feels as one.

    Where as MMLP2 feels more like a mixtape. Just like individual songs put on one CD, not an album.

    Hopefully he does produce it himself this time. I would guess so, because you can always tell when he's about to do something - when he starts practicing on side s----s. I think that was pretty much a big reason for Shady XV - for him to test out production / song styles on the public / his fans. Because all the song styles are so different and he produced them all.

    Also his work on the Southpaw s---. I think he's gearing up to produce big s--- for himself and I think he's been figuring out a sound or base direction for his production for this album. And I hope so. Because all these cooks in the kitchen have ruined his last two albums in a row.
