I think Eminem didnt wanted to put very much into his songs . cuz I think he wanted to let Cashis, Bobby and the other get more attention than himself..

Thats my little opinion :P:):):):)

I don't agree with that. He wouldn't have deliberately put less into these songs just to give his other artists more attention. If he didn't want to overshadow the other artists he would have made less appearances.

It wasn't great. It was the worst release in Eminem's name. By that I mean including all his, D12's and the 8 Mile OST. But I think that showed in the album sales. I know it was more successful than a lot of other good rap albums but for an album with Eminem's name on I think it would've sold well no matter how bad it was. So even though it did sell pretty well and made them money it wouldn't have sold as well as it would have if the quality of the album had been better imo.

this shit really bugs me - the re up is a classic album with some awesome tracks. but you all seem to keep saying it was an eminem album it wasnt and it wasnt marketted as one it was a compilation album marketted as a various artists album. also there is a lot of people out there that dont even know the re up excists cuz they didnt promote it at all there was no promotion so how you expect an album to sell by the millions without any form of promotion and advertising?

thats why it didnt sell much not because it wasnt a good album i mean look around and how may times did you see it on flyers or posters around town? how many times did you see it in shop windows like all the other big album releases?

theres one answer to both of those : NEVER

it was released as a back shelf album with no push to make people aware of its release it relied on forums ect... and theres a hell of a lot of fans out there that dont know anything about it. and also it was released at the wrong time and was overshadowed by other releases from heavily advertised albums.
