Dear Slim... (Suggestions Thread)

[RainMan44]

Get some people that are SERIOUSLY committed to spend some time twitter spamming the thread, and I'll help creating quality images for the thread. This could be interesting.

What do you mean by images for the thread?

[Hadez]

perhaps trying to get on Em's good side is not a good idea when you send him a thread that either mentions listening to his EP before it's released and/or leads to threads about everybody here downloading it free and (once again) before it's released.

Well he knows it has been leaked. So what? You think he expects us to just sit and here and not listen to it? Also, you bring up "getting on his good side" like if he is an asshole to us it will benefit him. It won't, lol.

ok, sure.

Just try to make the thread a little more appealing to the eye. Trust me, that has a lot of influence in capturing someone's attention.

Sounds good

Another thing I want to add.

This kind of belongs with "taking on different characters" like I mentoined earlier, but..

He should do some lines in the same voice he said these lines in

"Oh, it's his lyrical content/The song 'Guilty Conscience' has gotten such rotten responses"

or when he says

"Oh, he just did some shit with Missy//So now he thinks he's too big to do some shit with MC Get-Bizzy"


You know, that "sarcastic/disgusted" voice.

Here is a perfect bar he could have used that voice on.

"He's allergic to divas, he'd take meat cleavers to 'em
He don't give a damn about Bieber, do him?
'What a demon, a behemoth, evil just seems to be seepin' through him'"

as if it's a critic saying that last line, reacting to the previous lines before it.

To the people saying "no more Lil wayne"....First, he does pretty good when he's on a track with him. And second, that has nothing to do with Em's rapping.

Well Em's always going to destroy him, so there really is no point of putting him on. Em needs competition!

Yeah Em needs a challenge, Wayne is not creative enough to inspire Em, and plus I just don't wanna see Wayne on an Em album again. They can work together for fun all day long. Just keep it off the official album. And if he collaborates with someone who actually brings something to the table, it will affect his rapping on that particular song.

Dear Slim,

Honestly Hell:The Sequal was pretty good. I just think all the punchlines that reference shit and in which you use "in other words" have got to go. I appreciate what you did for the industry and inspiring millions to expand their mind and open up their creativity. I know your older now, but there is still plenty of things to rap about. You've rapped about politics before, why not experiment with that in some songs. You should stop listening to people who don't like what your putting out. Do it out of love. I felt like Recovery was a little forced. Just let the music flow and maybe get into more storytelling. Almost all your storytelling songs make me laugh or at least smile. Thats all i have to say. Thanks for reading.

Sincerely, A huge Eminem fan.

Nah I don't think we should link them to this forum, they could be upset with guys who hate on him just to hate.

We should just make a big post, saying what he does good and what he should do better and screen it. It's a better idea, and writing the nicknames of those who said ideas.

If we only say "you should you should" he'd be like, who are you to tell me what i should do?

Do you understand my point? Saying the EP is great, and shit like that. Really, it's important for him to know that we're supporting him since day one.

[Devil'sAdvocate]

This is a great idea,we have a real chance here,royce is ongoing and he will show this to Em,show it to Em Royce.

Dear Marshall.

WUSS GOOD CUZ!!

- Yo,a little low on the punchlines,i dont mind them but they get pretty annoying at times and plus you excel far more at other aspects of rapping,punchlines aint you.
- Rhyming,you do it really well now,really well but you are structuring you're bars in a weird way,back in the days everything was perfect
- Dr.Dre,Bass Brothers,Mr.Porter,You ONLY on production,nobody other than these guys.
-We want D12,Dr.Dre,50 Cent on the album,the usual suspects,no wayne nor pink
- You're name has more than enough power in it to sell a single,dont compromise for jimmy
- Fire you're sound engineer,or atleast tell him to quit adding that hoarse undertone to you're voice,and let Dr.Dre always do the mixing and mastering.
- I know you are with D12,but we want that album ASAP Em.
- Yelawolf,put a lot of energy on yelawolf,dude has amazing talent
- Look into more concepts,i would love Relapse concepts to be back minus the accent eventhough i like the accent.

Oh and WE LOVE RELAPSE ALOT MORE THAN RECOVERY,Relapse is more of an Eminem album than recovery,better flows,better beats,better rhyming,classic Em.

The Track Music Box,why cant you rhyme like that again.

we love you Em,hell:the sequel was awesome,Welcome 2 hell is a classic track.

I wish he would not listen to anyone, that he does exactly as he feels, he can't please everybody ...
I appreciate his work and there is no perfection in creativity and emotion is just what I feel when I listen, he got me to go into another world and I completely disconnected of reality....

He goes exactly where I waited him ....

I will buy his albums and even if they are bad just so he continues to pay his bills, I don't want him to sleep rough...


PS: Space Bound does not come out because you had a diss with Sacha?
Tracy and you have you had sex?

-We want D12,Dr.Dre,50 Cent on the album,the usual suspects,no wayne nor pink

Do we really want 50?

The most important thing is to start using your normal voice and calm down your delivery. The way you flow nowadays, I feel like you're rapping to a wall most of the time.

Most of the beats you use tend to be overproduced so start working with more high caliber producers ala Kanye, Premier and of course Dre. It's not like you can't afford it and all of them would love to work with you.

Use your strong sides and work on them. Humor, rhyming and speak-alike flowing is what you do best so easy on the complexity part a little. "I'm dumb enough to walk in a store and steal, So I'm dumb enough to ask for a date with Lauryn Hill" is a very clear and direct line but it's still better than any of your (recent) punch-lines.

You have already set the highest bar in MCing and nobody can take away from you what you did in the past. So all of this is just a big bonus, a bonus to your legacy and to us the fans, so you might as well experiment a bit more and get out of your "safe zone" as far as subject matter is concerned. See what you can do with some storytelling concepts.

I appreciate that you always want to sound different and evolve but why do it if it makes everything worse? So again, use your normal voice and work on a different subject matter. That way, you will evolve properly.

Truly yours, your biggest fan, this is Stan.

Don't make songs for anyone but yourself...compromise NOTHING for anyone, not Jimmy, not even us, your fans. I honestly, as a fan, wouldn't want you to listen to ANYONE but yourself.

If he did listen to the fans, he'd be compromising his music in the same way he would compromise it by listening to Jimmy. I'd rather him keep staying true to himself, making the music he wants to make, than make the music I want him to make and for him to be unhappy with it. I LIKE him not listening to people, that's one reason why I love Hell: The Sequel, he sounds like he doesn't give a fuck again.

Fucking LOL. I think someone took Amadeo's thread seriously.

Isn't it funny how this voice only ever appeared in his prime? That kind of nasally, sarcastic mocking voice. It's also in Don't Approach Me: "Oh, now he's pulling guns on his fans just for standing on his porch!"

Nowadays, he pinches his nose so he can sound like that. He can't do it naturally anymore.

Bagpipes from Baghdad chorus - pinches his nose
Deja Vu - "all systems ready for take-off!" - pinches his nose

"They call him Briefcase Joe, they call him, they call him, they call him Briefcase Joe"
