Most Eminem fans DON'T care about D-12 or Slaughterhouse #Truth

[PAINKILLƎR]

No, Eminem fans are the ones buying the new Slaughterhouse Record. Eminem fans are not your standard hip-hop fans. They dont mind people Like Rihanna, Skylar Grey, Bruno Mars. The rest of the hip-hop community not so much.

2 chainz is making awful music but at least the people he WANTS to please are pleased. Check out his new video- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y34jC4I1 ... e=youtu.be

half a million views, 6000 likes. His audience embraces him. Slaughterhouse's fans dont.

Oh I see, that makes a lot of sense... thanks

I'm pretty sure they do care about D12 when em drops their name like : yo i'm back in the studio with d12 making an album/mixtape

Only because Eminem is involved. If D12 never had Eminem in it they'd not have sold one record. That's the sad truth.

Well, 2 Chainz actually CATERS to his target audience. Do you know who is buying this album? Eminem fans. Slaughterhouse fans are dissapointed and that is why the numbers keep getting revised downwards.

Exactly.

[JUMPDMC]

These are only projected sales for the states, they'll probably do 100k worldwide.

[TRShitty]

I gotta agree with everyone who said Slaughterhouse did NOT cater to their audience.

This is the ONLY forum that mostly like their album. Every other forum has hated on the album something major...The Coli...Joe Budden Forums...KanyeToThe...Boxden...you can do your own snooping. At best, Slaughterhouse's "base" is mixed about the album.

And if you've ever been to a SH concert...you know their fans are the type of dudes who post on message boards, lol.

I'm not saying their new album is bad. I'm just saying, they could've split the difference much better between poppy songs and hard songs for the base. I'm not surprised the sales are low. A lot of SH fans don't like the album, but loved the mixtape.

Shady Records / Aftermath just don't put out hard shit anymore. IMAGINE if SH was spitting over something like G-Unit's G'd Up, D12's American Psycho 2, Obie Trice's Cry Now...instead they're spitting over beats approved by a panel of 14-year-old Twilight fans.

A song called Coffin, shouldn't sound like a gay techno club during the hook.

I cant believe Toby Keith might be the reason Slaughterhouse doesnt go number 1.

Toby Mac.

[Shady-Yo]

50-60k would be a good score! I couldn't even imagine they will be able to debut at number 1. There's not too many rappers able to do that.

[RayRay33]

When do we get the numbers?

[Man1x]

Fun.'s album that's been out forever just passed WTOH on iTunes.

[Shady-Yo]

When do we get the numbers?

Billboard presents the numbers on Wednesday, HitsDailyDouble a day before if i'm not wrong.

Who the fuck said they had to cater to anyone? What if they made music for themselves? Shocker, I know.

Seriously last time an artist listened to his fans he scraped a possible masterpiece. Looking at you, Slim.

[Man1x]

But every underground rap group was saying controversial shit back then. D12 may have had the same content, but without Eminem they would've never gone down the funny single lane that made them a success. Without D12 they'd have stayed in their basements rapping about raping their grandma's. Like I said in the other thread, Slim Shady became a personality that eclipsed D12 and took on a form of its own. Eminem made Slim Shady a persona that had many shades of emotion and really focused in on the content that Slim Shady was created to convey.

[SlipperyMooseCakes]

Keep in mind that Slaughterhouse's first album has sold 77k to date. That release was 3 years ago almost to the date. Selling 60+ in week one is a massive improvement. Some albums have legs and sell over time, others are very front loaded and fizzle out.
