at the moment D12 are their own artist and I have 2 albums under their name (obvious albums) but other songs like "These Drugs", "Whether or Not" & "My Ballz" have been shoved into D 12 World for neatness, so I'm ok with my D 12/Em songs.
under eminem is where the problem is, way to many albums to scroll thorugh, finding relapse walking along the street with a sweaty hand is a nightmare lol
Collaborations (28)
Curtain Call (4)
Eminem Show (20)
Encore (20)
Fucking Crazy (10)
Get The Guns (18) (I've put "The Warning" and "Girls" in here for neatness)
Infinite (10)
MMLP (18)
Off The Wall (12)
The Re-Up (5)
Relapse (20)
Relapse: Refill (9)
SSLP (20)
Unreleased (15) (songs like I love you more, Chemical Warfare, Conspiracy etc)
I thought about maybe having a "Mixtapes" Album and just shove everything from "Fucking Crazy" and "Off The Wall" in there, but then Get The Guns should probably be in there cause that's a mixtape, but I like that to be seperate cause it's all to do with beef. I'm not asking for help really, just how do YOU do it on your iPod? (assuming you make an effort to organise it)
Here man let me help you out, what I do Is I have all the official albums of course perfectly how they are suppose to be
As far as the mixtapes,freestyles, and unreleased stuff
I either put them as a single if I really like the song and I don't have any other songs to go with it or it doesn't have an official album
or I put them In the mixtape,etc they belong in for example I have chemical warfare on the cd Chemical warfare from alchemist with the album art and everything.
so i put the album name as(for example stimulate)
I would put it "Stimulate - Single" under album and then I found or made my own artwork.. i know this is not official but it helps me organize it and I like having the artwork.
I also make sure that on EVERY Eminem song the Artist is "Eminem" nothing else no features listed in the artists section that way on my iPod there is only one Eminem listed and not 118 with things like
"eminem ft 50 cent"
"eminem"
"eminem ft. dr. dre"
That makes it much easier to find and you can just select Eminem and all your albums are organized right there in front of you.
Then when there is a featuring artist I put it in the title so it would read
"Hell Breaks Loose (ft. Dr. Dre)"
for reasons mentioned above (not having hundreds of Eminem artists under the artist category)
as for collaborations I personally have them under whose CD they are
On drop the world I have it under Lil Wayne Rebirth and like i stated above I have in the title
"Drop The World (ft. Eminem)"
so while these songs may not be listed under Eminem when you use the iTunes search and type Eminem they will all be listed and me having an iPhone and all I have that similar search option on it that brings every song with the word Eminem in it together.
Hope I helped??
PS. putting an album with collaborations and your own artwork for it would work just as well if you want it under Eminem, I just like to have the information correct on the official songs and try not to make them singles like i said above or make up an album with a cover unless either the songs don't have an album or I only have that one song on the album i.e. stimulate not being on the bonus disc which it really is because I don't have any other songs from the bonus disc so I just made stimulate a single..
I am really OCD about my iTunes library
I make sure everything is capitalized and all that.. anyways good luck
