Why do you want Eminem to revert back to his old self?

I agree with everything you just said.

I honestly just enjoy Eminem's old music more. It's my opinion, I miss Slim Shady. I think his rhymes were more complex, the beats were better. He was funnier, it felt like his songs had more meaning.

Now, I know he is still good, I just feel like he is forcing things more often, he is losing his edge.

However, this is MY opinion. I miss the albums of slashing shit, popping vicodin with a little bit of anger and hate splashed in with some resentment of his past.

I agree that the old Eminem was a better artist but at the same time, I think it's unnecesarry and pointless to criticize the music for what it isn't rather than for what it is.

Again, if he was a new artist I reckon people wouldn't say W.T.P. was crap. They would probably appreciate an artist with a sense of humour and wouldn't be so picky. That's my guess.

I don't like do most that Recovery is almost pop album.

He should stop wanting so pop beats.

Then it isn't hip-hop already.

And he should stop singing so much, then it's fake.

Because da deliveryz is not as good as before when he wuz before da drugz, ya get me?

He's 38 now and has been through so much over the years so what do people expect? The same type of guy and artist to come out of the slum? The so-called old Eminem is dead and buried. It's a natural part of growing up.

Personally I'd like artists to try new things and give their albums different touches which is what Eminem did on Recovery (actually I think he did that on Relapse too with those impersonal horror songs). I swear, if Eminem was a new rapper and Recovery was his debut album, it wouldn't get half the hate it gets.

Biting Mike's style now? lol. But for real, he used to clearly enunciate his words, now it all sounds unmastered

Hearing the old eminem as slim shady introduced me to a whole new style of rap that I never knew existed before. I listened to insane and underground when relapse first came out and was blown away by hearing him rap about all that nasty psycho shit since at that time I only listened to mainstream rap, then after listening to his older shit i was even more impressed by the slim shady style (i always thought those background voices he used to do were fuckin hilarious) while recovery was pretty good it wont do the same things that his older shit did. I started listening to him for his older style not his new one.
just dont give a fuck > love the way you lie
my name is > not afraid
criminal > space bound

To take a step back is an artistic failure

He needs to move forward, and he took his first step with Recovery

50 said something clever on his twitter (best twitter ever btw ). "Man, people keep telling me 'go back to the old 50!' and shit like that. It's like asking an artist to paint the same painting over and over again".

no one wants eminem to make the same songs he already made we want his old shady style back
like if a painter switches his style of painting up and his new paintings, while good arent anywere near his old ones. people want his old style not his old songs

Eminem has become a sell out. That is a fact, and the last 3 albums he has released have been feeding the mainstream media that he has been trying to starve at the beginning of his career. Although a lot of his old fans have become angry at him for going mainstream, they shouldn't. Even though I don't agree with him becoming mainstream, he shouldn't completely go back to Slim Shady. Instead of completely dropping the fans he has now, like the fans he had before, he should just make and album or two that resembles himself a long time ago.
