Lol at someone calling CLMR a flop...okay, if it's such a flop why do I hear it all the time? The rare occasion that I do switch to the radio I hear this song at least 3 times.

Menzo is right, Slaughterhouse flopped on their own accord. You can only do so much for the group, its their responsibility to make the music and album work. Not Eminem's. And lol at that comment about Yelawolf, Eminem didn't produce a single beat on the album or mixed a single song. He gave him a verse and advice and that was it. You know why? Because Yelawolf DIDN'T WANT the help. You cannot force help on someone if they don't want it. Yela didn't want it and look what happened, his album flopped. Eminem was much more involved in SH and their album did much better but it was still lacking that spark.

Fuck SH.


... No. The songs with Em on it are actually the worst ones. Throw That is pretty bad, except the bridge. Our House is an average song, with a great bridge too and the song gets gradually better but is still forgettable overall.
Asylum was weird and didn't fit SH, the only great thing was Joell. And the beat and the hook.

On the other hand, you have Rescue Me, Goodbye (I know you don't like it though, I can understand.), Get Up, Hammer Dance, Die, and Flip A Bird and they're all better sounding and have more replay value than any of the "Eminem" songs.

I feel like "Throw That" is the Slaughterhouse equivalent of D12's "Nasty Mind". Except with a much shittier beat.

I didn't know you thought Get Up is awful lol, it's actually one of my favorite song on the album. Can't blame you for not liking the two emotional songs, because well they were kinda cliché if you ask me.

But I still liked them. Rescue Me could have been a looot better. I only loved Royce and Budden on it.

I think Juggernauts and Gone, All On Me or Monsters in My Head should have been on the album.

Because Interscope bought it some airtime to try and boost sales? It was in the Top 40 airplay for a while but it looks like it's about to fall out of the Top 50. Despite the airplay and the single being reduced to 69 cents it never got back into the Top 100 on digital sales. It never made the Billboard Hot 100 and with airplay falling it's not likely too. But even if all those things worked out the song is awful = flop.

I forget what interview but Skylar said Alex Da Kid and some other guy handled most of the production. Sounds like Eminem's "Executive Producer" role was more on the advice and direction side.

Slaughterhouse and Yelawolf flopped because they went more commercial alienating their existing fans without picking up many new ones. From what Yelawolf said it sounds like Interscope pushed for a more commercial sound. Does Em really have any final say or just follows Interscope's orders? If so, Shady Records (and his Exe Prod credit) sounds like nothing more than a vanity deal they gave him to make him happy since he is their biggest selling artist. I don't see that they take his artists seriously at all.

I think there is gonna be one more feat. especially 'cuz EM's the exec. producer & have had time to help with whatsoever. I don't think they expected the first single not to work to that point so they better have another more serious one or else the sales might suffer 'cuz of the first single.
By the way... How much has it sold so far in total? Any numbers anyone?

A youtube comment: That song with Eminem is a flop. Him Executive Producing isn't going to help just ask Slaughterhouse and Yelawolf.
I wanted an album so rugged nobody could touch it.
Spent a million a track and went over my budget.
Now how in the fuck am I supposed to get out of debt?
I can't rap anymore, I just murdered the alphabet.

I'm fairly sure that was my youtube comment, actually.
