We're openly admitting it. Lol.. that's exactly what this all is.
MMLP1 : Fuck pop, fuck my label, fuck what the fans think they want me to be
MMLP2: I am pop, I wanna sell platinum so badly, I care so much what the fans think I will shit on my previous work that I obviously wanted to release
This is the difference in vibes from the singles..
This is like Welcome to Our House all over again.. He said WTOH was "the return of hip-hop"
"hip hop NEEDS this album" .. Eminem has lost his fucking mind
Yup.
Well it's like he thinks he can have really great rapping but mixed with semi-pop-rap beats and poppy hooks JUUUST edgy enough to not be total pop... and because it contains rapping... like, we won't notice or something?
I think when he says hip-hop needs this he's referring to the lyricism within the verses etc. but he thinks he can just fuck with the backbone of the hip-hop music and as long as the rapping is there we'll still go 'oh, it has rapping, this is rap!'
I don't know who he's really pleasing too.
Because true pop fans will prefer true pop.
And true rap fans will prefer true rap.
So you're really just shitting on two types of genres at once for no good reason.
Why not just give us pure rap like we know you can Em :/ and pure rap doesn't need to be small, think of "The Way I Am" - 13 years later and it still sounds like an epic, monumental, moody mini masterpiece which towers above every song on Recovery combined.
I wish he'd realize when the shit is back to front pure, the power of it cannot be overstated.
