Did Eminem mature too quickly?

[Alaine]

ive always thought Em could have came out with another album similar to the MMLP style. if you listen to Devils Night, all his lyrics are versus that imo fit into the MMLP style. it really just comes down to him going back to detriot and getting his friends. if he didnt do that im sure he would of had another album out before TES.

and yes, MMLP is 10000X better then TES. SSLP and MMLP will forever be his best work. that style is so unique and that is what hooked me as an Eminem fan. not TES or 8 Mile. TES to me was too mainstream.

how the hell was it mainstream ??

it has more poppy beats & more toned down lyric while SSLP, MMLP are more darky/sinister sound with heavy punchlines & edgy lyric , it's actually quite clear if you listened to all those albums at once. SSLP, MMLP, Devil's night that was Slim Shady, from TES it was Eminem.

tonned down? he said "fuck" and "motherfucker" more than any other word

^ he didn't push the buttons in TES as much, no 'faggot' & shit like that. I think there was an interview where Eminem himself said that he toned down the lyric in TES because everyone has to grow up or something along those line

MMLP+SSLP Win over any of his other albums they are miles better !

Inside of a hall, with my framed autographed,
Sunglasses with Elton John's name, on my fag wall

He said that during a live performance of My Dad's Gone Crazy.

Once, during a live performance, about a fellow musician who he is known to be close friends with.

As Opposed to:

My words are like a dagger with a jagged edge
That'll stab you in the head
whether you're a fag or les
Or the homosex, hermaph or a trans-a-vest
Pants or dress - hate fags? The answer's "yes"
Homophobic? Nah, you're just heterophobic
Staring at my jeans, watching my genitals bulging (Ooh!)
That's my motherfucking balls, you'd better let go of em
They belong in my scrotum, you'll never get hold of em
Hey, it's me, Versace
Whoops, somebody shot me!
And I was just checking the mail
Get it? Checking the 'male'?
How many records you expecting to sell
after your second LP sends you directly to jail?
C'mon!-- Relax guy, I like gay men
Right, Ken? Give me an amen (AAA-men!)
Please Lord, this boy needs Jesus
Heal this child, help us destroy these demons
Oh, and please send me a brand new car
And a prostitute while my wife's sick in the hospital
Preacher preacher, fifth grade teacher
You can't reach me, my mom can't neither
You can't teach me a goddamn thing cause
I watch TV, and Comcast cable
and you ain't able to stop these thoughts
You can't stop me from topping these charts
And you can't stop me from dropping each March
with a brand new CD for these fucking retards

i rather see him mature, than being dead today ... scary thought

[shadegirl]

i think he wrote such mean lyrics like that to gays because people was calling him homophobic. which he isnt. nor is he raciest which i couldnt believe people called him that lol that was funny. but i dont think he meant it that he hates gays.

He did say fairly recently that he'll continue wearing wifebeaters as long as bitches keep running off at the mouth.

That wasn't really using it insultingly though.

The only other refernces I can think of are

"My faggot father must have had his panties up in a bunch"
and
"you 36 year old bald headed fag"

He has yet to mature.
