    I'm sure he can't make a full album of good quality but like all his others it at least will have a few gems.

    That's what mmlp2 is for sure. I just want him to be consistent. I'd rather an album with 15 good songs than an album with 3 great songs and the rest meh

    I get that. But an album with a lot of good songs (but lack of replay value) is only good for a little while. I raher have a handful of songs that I can enjoy for a long time. Obviously a combination is the best but I don't see eminem pulling that off. He has been average/below average for too long

    I really think Eminem will release his next album This year And I really think it will be his best album since TES,He don't need to prove nothing to anyone,And releasing a hit with Adele is #1 on billboard And promote the album,after This I would like to see an album with great lyrics And a diferent flow.

    I agree, more like 6 years tho, and 2010-2011 could be seen as a comeback too.

    Also stop assuming Eminem is all we/I listen to, just cause he's my favorite doesn't mean I only listen to him

    But, I do. Is it really that bad that he's my favorite rapper ? It's not like I'm the only one

    I'm curious. Is my post really that unreasonable? I mean I'm staying reasons for optimism, it's not set in stone.

    And for the record, I listn to numerous rappers other than Eminem

    Don't understand why being an Eminem fan means you only listen to Eminem.

    To be fair, a lot of Eminem fans are like that. But we are on a hip hop forum, I'd be willing to bet the majority of Eminem fans on here listen to other rappers too

    At the end of the day it's opinions, I never understood why people say "why do you listen to him?" Idk man maybe because I do enjoy his music, and that just because you don't, doesn't mean the whole world has to agree. I can give two s----s what anyone thinks he is my favorite rapper, but by any means he isn't the only person I listen too. Some days I can f--- with Futures music some days I prefer Em's music. For me it is all about what mood I am in.

    I'm still optimistic. I didnt even mind if em's next album got the speedom flow in some parts of it but yeah. medicine man, best friend, KND and All I think about were dope imo.i'd really like a new album this year but he takes two years in average to make an album and he probably just started working on that by now

    Number 5 is crucial for the little faith I have left. At least he is self aware. He needs to slow down, use a laid back delivery and quit trying to be so technical. I blame Slaughterhouse and sobriety (boredom/over thinking) for getting extremely lyrical, spastic/choppy flows and trying to fit a million rhymes in every line. He used to flow so naturally.

    Medicine Man and Fine Line give me hope though.
