But it's pointless if nothing's coming

Well, that means something is coming. They're building it up. Vibe interviews, vibe lists, then covers and announcements, a little talk here and there about his new album, a freestyle.. Ya know, shit like that.

"He doesn't condone domestic violence; he makes tracks like "Love the Way You Lie" that bring attention to it."

Chris Yuscavage from Vibe is in no position to be implying people don't know the real Eminem when he's making statements like that.

All these writers seem to have a really simplistic, outside view of Eminem yet talk like they're intelligent fans. Anyway, any list like this has to have "Kim" at no.1, no arguing there.

[Slim Fiasco]

Yeah, I think the list was decent. I enjoy this Em promotion that we've been getting lately, can't wait for something more extreme.

[SG.]

Not a bad list but:

"If you're under the age of, say, 21, then you probably know a much different Eminem than we do."

Fuck you.

Exactly. Even the people I know who started listening to Em with Recovery went back to his old stuff and prefer it. Good journalism's supposed to avoid using clichés like this but this usually happens with media aimed at "teen" audiences (i.e. they think we're dumb shits).

[UofLCard]

I smell an album coming soon.

Can you feel it?

[Never_Enough]

This song was so crazy that it was left off the clean version of the album because, had it been edited, it basically would have been an instrumental. Now, that is crazy.

I like the list, but as you guys said you don't have to be over 21 to know all of Em's work. They should've avoided saying that.

Anyway I have a feeling that a single will come out the latest in December. And we'll have the classical pre-album freestyle soon .

[Blu]

I think the editor was saying you'd have to be over 21 to experience Em's albums when they first came out.

[Eedee]

Of course Kim is #1. It wouldn't be a correct list without it haha

[Jimmy Conway]

I get what they are saying about age mattering. For one, the first few years of Eminem's career, there was nothing to complain about, he was only getting better. An artist looks better when everything they make is so new. Now people just whine, OH LOOK EM IS STILL MiSOGYNIST Also, things were actually shocking back then. Most people didn't just get on the internet and see basically anything you can imagine. Crazy shit was around, but everyone wasn't so desensitized, so hearing Eminem say something crazy in 1999 was crazier then than now. I mean how do you shock someone that seen a body with it's head blown off being fucked by some guy smiling, or whatever crazy stuff you might see on like 4chan or whatever. It was a different time BACK IN MY DAY.

[BeautifulEscape]

When the fuck is this guy coming out with a new album?

[EminemBase]

I think it's easier to shock adults.

Yep, because the older most people get; the more stringent and stiffened they become in their thinking, their views and their opinions. So anything which differs from any of that is like a shock to the system; where as kids are free, open, uninhibited, aka; artists.
