But Em’s whole brand was based on hating mainstream acts (*NSYNC, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, etc). To come back yrs later and do a feature with basically Gen z’s version of them is kinda weak. I love Em too, but just being honest. I’m moderate politically too, but 1 against Trump was so forced and corny as well. Like I said, you throw in all that with god awful production and it makes it by far his worst album.

I fully understand this album is terrible, but as a lifelong Eminem fan I kinda forced myself to like it lol. Most of it I straight up dont like but I still run back Believe, Walk On Water, Offended, and Nowhere Fast on occasion. Sometimes I spin Castle and Arose back to back if I'm feeling particularly emotional lol

Besides Tragic Endings (although it sounds like a Recovery throwaway) Castle and Arose I also couldn't stand this album. First time I've felt that way about any Em project (Encore had some great moments).

If the album was better produced it would honestly be a solid album. Great bars/flow on tracks like Believe & in your head. The production is what throws it off.

People are such drama queens with this album Jesus Christ. They act like any joke Eminem makes is cringe now and ask why he does it like he wasn’t making corny jokes his whole career. They’ll crap on one song for having jokey lyrics then sing the real slim shady like come on man lol.

Honestly though, his bars on this album are incredibly cringe. Not to mention the awkward flows, awful production and mixing, boring/bad hooks, repetitive topics, tone deaf & hypocritical messaging... it's clear why this album is hated, the reaction is not overblown.

To me this entire album is caught in such two apposing minds. The Rick Rubin side and a softer pop side with some attempts of the trap sounds sprinkled on top. It keeps switching on you so it never allows you to get into it and feel the vibe. Like, do yourselfs a favour, look up every song with Rick Rubin in the credits and just listen to those. It's still questionable at times but you can get into it and it really makes you wonder why he didn't just stick with that for a full album's concept, and just have it be focused. But to me it's such a clash with the likes of the Pink song and it doesn't complement each other. Whether you're into a beastie boy kinda style or not, it's a night and day difference in objective quality in the productions and guitar riff samples done by Rick and the ones he didn't touch. To this day I really feel like there could've been a cool concept album if he really just went all in on Rick Rubin instead of this unfocused mess. Now it's a weird mix of rock rap with trap but there's no rapper features, only pop features which pulls the whole thing towards a weird mainstream middle-ground that no one really cares for while his whole thing is that he's a rapper rapper..

I agree. The album has no flow or cohesion whatsoever except for the last 3 tracks. It jumps from this super muddy, skeletal trap to cheesy Rubin produced rap rock to super glossy pop rap and back again. It can’t decide if it wants to be an anti-Trump album, a super personal record about his anxieties and place in modern hip-hop or a Licensed to Ill/80s Rubin rap throwback. I think even if the songs were great and had no issues whatsoever, the album would still have a totally disjointed and incoherent flow. The only run of songs that makes sense is In Your Head > Castle > Arose and that’s because they all more or less deal with the same topic and sonically sound quite alike. MMLP2 had a similar feel where it was jumping from topic to topic and sound to sound but that album at least had an overarching tone and feel to it that made the songs feel connected whereas here they’re all over the place
@lowkeyloki8832 Жыл бұрын
I don’t why ever Em adopted this flow where it sounds like someone’s in the booth stabbing him with a fireplace poker while he’s rapping. At some point it doesn’t matter if the lyrics are good if the delivery is totally trash.

I love ‘Em, but I really don’t know how he ever thought this was a releasable album. It’s not only the worst Em album, but one of the worst albums I’ve ever heard. I can’t believe this is from the same guy who wrote The Way I Am, Stan, Lose Yourself, and Mockingbird.

Yeah, I feel like many of this songs had dope messages but Jesus Christ, What was that production? Still, Walk on water is a great song, and both Castle and Arose are amazing songs and the best ones of the album by far. At least Kamikaze is shorter, has way better songs and just like 3 meh songs.

Idk what he was going through at this time and where his internal compass was. This album is so bad. Almost everything about it was not good. I just remember hearing it and being genuinely upset at the time and Im not a strong critic when it comes to music. I usually always find some value or a positive aspect of an album.
@darkcraftertheking4377 Жыл бұрын
I’m an em fan but I’d say revival was bad. There are a couple of good songs. But em and a lot of his Stans needed to know that a couple of good songs do not make a good album And as a black man myself I do appreciate what em was trying to do with revival.(I think someone else said this in the comments already). 24:49 And I really love this joke😂

SO SO GLAD Em came back with Kamikaze and especially MTBMB A side and B side which are absolute fire and shows why he is still the GOAT of rap even past 50 YO.
