I hate it when I say people say this about 'new Em' lmao.
I don't care whether you like or dislike his new stuff, that's personal taste...
But when I see people say he's 'toned it down'...are you serious?
Regardless of whether the anger is illegitimate or more in character or less justified, or about less important things... how the hell as he toned it down. He's screaming his lungs out on every track and trying (whether he's failing or not is not relevant) to be more offensive than ever.
In fact he's more aimlessly angry than he has ever been.

How so?

With The Slim Shady LP he was embodying a character and a mindset that was somewhat jokey and light-hearted (despite being sinister and dark), much more like a work of fiction...
Then with The Marshall Mathers LP he exploits misunderstanding for provocation and created a very angry, political, reactionary masterpiece. But, the misunderstanding of his character and the use of provocation to prove a point and push free speech... made it justifiable / mean something.
The Eminem Show was a more inward look at the man behind the mask, he more-so analyzed the potential (or so-called) damage he'd done / was doing to himself, his personal life and the public at large, as a result of his art, fame and controversial presence.
Lately, he's almost entirely focused on technical skill alone (flows, rhyming, delivery) and his content is aimlessly angry and he's playing into his old character of hateful mysoginist (and I find it pretty funny, as it's WAY beyond the joke - the point at which I think it becomes very interesting)...
Um, but have you not been listening? lmao.
I can't believe I even have to explain how he's angrier and more offensive than ever. If you listen to "Cold Wind Blows" or "Almost Famous"... how anybody could say he's toned 'it' (what's 'it'? - his anger? his hate? his ruthlessness?) down is ridiculous.
Again: the content of his lyrics or the things his anger are aimed at being less meaningful or intelligent, or his artistry as a whole not being as valid or noteworthy have nothing to do with him 'toning it down'. Speaking in basic terms, he's angrier and more in your face than ever.
(and I didn't even go into Relapse! which is a totally unapologetic exploration of deplorable thinking for the sake of vivid and descriptive rhymes. TONED IT DOWN? how the fuck... just, no.)
