Bad Meets Evil or Em Meets 50 ?

[Francesco]

You can't even compare both acts... BME is kinda second to none lyrically but I'd take EM/50 album anytime 'cuz of what they mean together to hip hop... their legacy is bananas & to be honest an EM/50 album is long overdue... it was about to come if they were not that busy back in the day IMO. EM joked about it at the time saying the duo album would be presented as an 'Ebony and Ivory' album.
At the end of the day Interscope missed the chance to make an EM/50 album happen when it would easily be ground braking & recently missed the chance to make the BME album a classic, just by releasing it as an EP as it needed 3 more songs, esp. cuz it was the perfect album for experiments & for using all Shady 2.0 artists on the last few tracks.
If EM/50 album came esp. at the time, it'd be one of the best duo hip-hop albums of all time, and if BME came with full LP it'd be EPMD on steroids all over.

An Eminem - 50 Cent Album back in 2003-2005 would have been a classic IMO.

You're right but it'd even go beyond that... You know what kinda machine Aftermath/Shady/G-Unit was back then so it'd be THE album at the time. The funny thing is they had too much material for it anyway but like I said both were too busy, plus the other drama too.

They could have settled for an EP at least.

Thinking about that in the current scene seems a bad idea .I'm not saying that their chemistry is not there but the Impact that this Collaboration would have will be limited to the Pre - Album period only (If they ever make an Album together that is). The 1st single would develop some Hype that would last a few days ,then it would fade away gradually until the LP comes out.It would sell though because ...

BME is said to have more cohesiveness but the EP is loosing it's visibility (Maybe because it's just an EP lol).Even though people are accepting this duo but....some how I feel that this EP [H:TS] is not getting that much attention that it deserves. Lyrically this EP is top notch but somehow that craze is missing. It's not being discussed that much in Forums (Take this Forum for instance) ,Blogs etc etc.

Exactly, that's what I said actually. Eventhough it's hard to critisize Interscope considering the success overall, the timing have been poor from day one & the missed chances have been too many. Basically Em's charisma have beed the clean up factor to all those bad decisions.

Still if Em and 50 planned and had the enough time to put everything else aside, they could do a really dope & memorable album considering all the history & the empires they got, but unfortunatelly they don't have that time for it.
It's like a Shady/G-Unit Re-Up 2 album would do too, but if EM & 50 featured on all songs, as label heads and the rest of the artists just contribute & rep the labels. That would be the perfect subject matter for an EM/50 album as it'd be all about the history, legacy and the status of what Em and 50 represent together as artists and label owners. That would be the ultimate way to expose all their artists as a whole too and it doesn't even matter Eminem's or Crooked I's verses would be put against Bizarre's or Yayo's. Aftermath/Shady/G-Unit suppose to be the evolved, modern day Juice Crew IMO.

look people,we have a smart one.

A classic in the time period Eminem was unable to rap in any sort of way?

[WakeUpShow]

holy shit, i forgot how much 50 killed psycho.

[One Mic]

Em/Dre >>>>>> Em/50 >>>>> Em/Obie Trice >>>> Em/Weezy >>>>>>> Em/Royce >>>>> Em/T.I.

[the real slim shady]

Em/Dre>>>>Em/Lil Wayne (because em always does a badass verse)> BME = Em/50
i actually like BME quite a lot but to be honest it isnt that good...lyrically its good but its not really as amazing as some other EPs, not sure why i probably just like it because it is relatively new...

Mothafuckin word there man ,I remember that thread were it was posted that there is chances of a "Re-Up" ,I ridiculed it at first but come to think of it that would be great idea tbh.
