[One Mic]

Couldn't put the actual proper title as it was too long and it wouldn't let me.

5 Reasons Eminem Signing Slaughter House, Yelawolf Is Good For Rap

http://rapfix.mtv.com/2011/01/12/eminem ... d-for-rap/

[Satire]

5 reasons:

-Royce Da 5'9"
-Joe Budden
-Crooked I
-Joell Ortiz
-Yelawolf

Ha, I get it. Because the title of the topic is there are five reasons these signings are good, and you just listed five good emcees, who also happen to be the five emcees that Eminem is signing at the same time!

They aren't gonna go against each other, they're friends. Why you think they're featuring on each other's albums? You all need to get over the YM hate, if you don't like them don't listen. They're getting their money, providing for their families, and putting out music lots of people enjoy. Just chill with the beef nonsense.

I thought this list was kinda dumb for the most part:
1. A renewed interest in all things Shady
Would have happened regardless, what with Recovery and Detox, but this definitely doesn't hurt to get some fresh faces. Good point.
2. The official squashing of Eminem and Royce Da 5’9’s longstanding beef
It's been squashed for a while...
3. Shrewd lyricism returning to the mainstream
Just being on Shady doesn't make them any more mainstream.
4. Yelawolf connects Shady Records back with the South
Why is this a good thing? People in the South already bump Em anyways, he's not limited by region.
5. Friendly — or not — competition amongst rap's crews
OK point, but it WILL be friendly competition I gaurantee. Everyone's matured past the stupid beef drama.

I can tell you good things in the interest of those rappers:
1. Eminem signed them.
2. Eminem signed them.
3. Eminem signed them.
4. Eminem signed them.
5. Eminem signed them.
Did I mention anything Eminem touches turns to gold?

We don't have the FreeSpeech to compare these two crews? One wack and one dope?

Good one, very original. Nah you can say whatever, I can say whatever. It's just beating a dead horse to critique YM/CM in general. Critiquing individual songs/albums is always welcome, but just writing off the whole label as shit gets old. Same with trying to get Shady camp to beef with them. Why ruin a relationship between friends? Say what you want about his music, but it seems like everyone who knows Wayne personally likes and respects him as a man, from Em to Tech N9ne.

[mdemaz]

I always wondered...Would Em ever sign a rock band to Shady?
That would be interesting.

What the hell are you talking about dumbass, I was talking about sales and who's going to receive more hype; it was obvious YM dominated 2010. I'm a fan of YM regardless (well SOME of them)

...chill. My apologies, I'm so used to everyone pitting them against each other I assumed that's what you were doing. And YM will obviously win solely because of release scheduling: Wayne and Drake are both supposed to drop albums. CIV alone will probably outsell all of Shady combined unless Eminem drops an album in 2011, which I doubt he will.

Isn't Detox being released under Shady Records as well?

No, it's on Interscope/Aftermath.

Well there's most likely going to be 3 albums dropping under Shady Records this year then?

Yelawolfs album
Slaughterhouse album (maybe?)
D12 album

And YM has like 20 albums dropping but only a few actually do numbers

WELL YM will probably win the sales but it's still interesting since these 2 groups will be/are the hip hop icons

Yep, hopefully it makes them all step their game up (higher than it already is).
