Stop And Think For A Moment! (Important)

[Slim Fiasco]

Today marks the start of the hype for Em's new album. This is a shit that happens rarely, it's a shit that gains in importance for Em is hiding in a hole for most of the time, and this time most members have experienced it already in the past, but right now have the advantage of being veterans and actually realize how big this is. Or at least I hope so, and yeah it's not really that big in the real world, but fuck a life.

This may or may not be Em's last album, it may or may not be Em's last GREAT album so the last thing you want to do is bitch about it. The new threads, the FIRST TIMES of listening to the next song, to the shit that leaks, to the interviews, to Em being all over your uglyfacebook home pages and walls, the enormous amount of (potential) joy is about to go down.

Again, this shit happens rarely, and in retrospect you'll fucking love it regardless of how you feel about it as it happens. It's like trips or high-school, no matter how bitchy you may get, when it's all said and done you'll focus on the good and you'll wish you had appreciated it more and that there were more good memories of it. With that in mind, you have two choices. You can either jerk off to your Lose Yourself Pt. 16 slash (that stands for "/") I want Em to spit on Jay Z's face and renegade Kendrick on his own song which will be on Em's album fantasies, and end up disappointed; OR, and this is just a thought, you can remain open to surprises and leave space for you to actually love what he has in store for you.

Because remember, if you expect less, chances are you'll get a bigger reward and you liking the new ish will be more likely to occur. And that's something you definitely want for yourself.

Soon enough you'll be living with an ugly wife and eventually die, so be mindful to what's around you now and let go of negative emotions. There's too much bullshit in your little head, clear that space up motherfucker.

I agree. Great read Slim.

[LMShady]

Well put indeed.

[Never_Enough]

That's my first time actually experiencing the album hype but I absolutely agree with you. I've already realized what you're saying months ago, so I try to appreciate the fact that he's putting out something, and not what he's putting out.
We will never get EXACTLY what we want. But we can like what he does, and right now I love Berzerk.

[Slim Fiasco]

Good looking out guys! And Never_Enough, that's a great attitude, you're going to love this period. Enjoy it to the fullest!

[Jason M.]

Thank you!

My thoughts exactly.

[Despicable]

Totally agree.

I love it when the Eminem PR train is coming,that means more news about the album,new songs,new interviews,new performances,new music videos all leading up to the album release.Its a fantastic couple of months we have in front of us now and it may be the last time so people really should appreciate it and just fucking enjoy it.

I know i will

[cityfan31]

5 years ago there were fleeting rumours about him gaining weight, doing drugs and being, as Em put it, 'a fucking mess'.

Could never have predicted what's happened since then. We gotta be grateful for all the music we've had and that Shady turned it around.

This album will not disappoint.

[RFC1872]

The build up is the best part IMO. I really hope it doesn't leak at all so to keep up the suspense and mystique of the album.

[metsfan1121]

As a fairly new fan compared to most of you (started seriously listening around Recovery's release), I'm excited for my first real shady hype. The past couple years, eminem and this site have brought me to appreciate music in a way I never had before, and in a way most people never do. And while I wish I could've been here to witness shady in his prime, I'm thankful to be able to witness an album. It may be shit but it'll be the album I stalked for months, and the first album I loved before it released.

The only thing that pisses me off is that I literally have no private life anymore .. I'm reading all those messages so I'm up to date lol

I live by this!

[Sofi1993]

Exactly my thoungs I hate it how we are always bitching about him not droping any new songs and shit like that and whenever he does all we do is continue bitching. Just be open to what Em did with this album becuase, just like he said, we don't know if this is or not Em's last album. Lets just enjoy our idol's music and lets be ready for surprises

[Never_Enough]

Good looking out guys! And Never_Enough, that's a great attitude, you're going to love this period. Enjoy it to the fullest!

And I want to add one thing.

This thread is from today:
viewtopic.php?f=57&t=163191
and this thread is from 2009, read the title:
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=59176&p=754784
It always happens the same way. People bitch about the single, others love it etc.

Read this:

Was just lose it the best from Encore?
Was Without me the best from TES?
Was the real slim shady the best from MMLP?
My point is, Wait till the albums released before giving up

It's a post from the same thread I quoted, from 2009. I swear I read practically the same post earlier today in a thread about Berzerk.
Don't get caught up in what people say, first impressions are almost always fallacious when it comes to music. Wait a few days, and even more, before judging a song, and a few weeks before judging an album.
As I said earlier, appreciate Em for the fact that he's putting out something, and not for what he's putting out.


Peace.

First listen to Em last November. Went total stan fast. I don't dislike none of his albums. Cant wait for this one.
