Worst fears about MMLP2???

[Hopsinshadie]

If Eminem created hype and bombs, then the next album will have far less hype. I hope this isn't Slim just throwing in the towel and making the most for sales on what could be his last album. He has to pleasantly please the majority of his fans if he is to keep people believing in him.

Do it for Slim yo, do it for Jesse. Do it just to do it.

If I hear marketing strategy one more time, I'm going to have to punch a bitch.
Recovery is on the verge of going 5x platinum in the U.S, and is his most sucessful album saleswise. Ever.
Marketing strategy would be making a Recovery II.

MMLP and TES went Diamond (10x plat).

He is doing what he feels like doing....

At this point of his career, he is kinda going back to the sound of the 90's..because that's what he wants. I think he has more respect for the music of that period than the music these days.
But that's not marketing. People can go more crazy over a song like LTWYL over a Berkerk...

^ Record sales slump.
Factor in single sales, YouTube views, impact on social media (mostly Facebook) and Recovery might just be Em's most sucessful album.

Basically things were very different in the perior of MMLP and now with Youtube, facebook, etc.....

I see what you're saying, I agree, a shit ton of underage girls now love Eminem, hell even faggots (Em's words) love Eminem now. I always wonder if they listen to his older work.

You can basically double whatever someone sells the past 5-6 years and that's what they would have sold in the early 00's. Recovery would have been about 9-10x Platinum in 2002 probably.

I would be disappointed if there are no skits (Recovery). Even if I think 5 are too much:
there HAS TO BE a Ken Kaniff, official like on SSLP and MMLP or hidden like on TES and Relapse. I would be very disappointed if theres no Ken I don't really need a Paul skit, but it's also a classic on - so why not, but I would prefer a Steve Berman. The skit on Relapse can not be the End of that story and even if it would be a bit boring or uncreative I would love a Public Service Announcement 2013 It it's his last planned record there could be a great outro (for example I fucking loooooooove 'It's Been Real' from 2007 or 2008)

Why make a sequel to the MMLP2? Whats the point?

You can't make a sequel to this fuckin classic album!

Controversy from the SSLP, pop artist/boys band disses, controversy with te Real slim shady video, "Fuck Interscope" with "the way i am", controversy with the gay community, and of course "Kim".

Classic Slim shady tracks like "Kill you" or "Criminal" and even "Marshall Mathers".

6min+ storytelling song with "Stan".
What else?

The Bass Brothers.

Duet With Elton.

1.7 millions just in USA 1st week, record for a solo artist. Will never be beat, except if MJ or 2pac resurect.

So now MMLP2?

Im not saying that its not gonna be a good album, but calling it MMLP 2, then it's MUST be a masterpice.

That's why i'm afraid about a marketing strategy.

And by the way, here's an alternative cover :

I'm not really worried about production. I trust Rick, Dre, and NO I.D. As stated before, my biggest fear would be flow/delivery/execution. And to a lesser extent, subject matter.
