Interscope starting that viral marketing for Eminem’s next album, “REVIVAL.” It’s pretty cool.

No offense but reading some of these posts you guys need to dig deeper for hip hop.

So I randomly heard Jocelyn Flores by xxxtencion or whatever his name is and was very surprised by how much I liked it.

Ended up checking out his album and it is NOTHING like that shit he dropped when he first started making "waves".

I wouldn't call this a hip hop album in the traditional sense, but it's damn good. Dark, but good

Liked the Eminem single and him looking back and hating on his recent work. I’ve been okay with it. I hope this is the opener of the new album and the rest just goes hard.

It's okay to me. Big K.R.I.T. is really, really talented at picking beats, and really, really terrible at writing hooks. I'm not as big a fan of this album as some people here are.

It's an interesting track in the sense that it's Eminem opening up again about himself and the way that he perceives his own status. Aesthetically, it's pretty terrible. I've never been a fan of rapping without drums, and it allows all of Em's worst tendencies to shine through. Beyonce has a nice performance, but I wish it was a little less slow. This is one of those tracks that you're glad you heard simply because of the personalities behind it, but you're also plenty fine with never hearing again.

Oh yeah it’s definitely a one time only listen unless it’s the lead in to a hard af album.

I guess we’ll see soon — maybe Friday? I don’t know. It was a needed track from Em tho imo.

Re-listened to Atrocity Exhibition today, it's perhaps even better than when I first listened. One of my favourite hip hop albums ever, legitimately

Going to make the suggestion that Atrocity Exhibition is going to be remembered as one of the defining hip hop albums of this decade. It may take a while for everyone to see it, but it's going to be one of these albums that people are going to revisit in five to ten years and be blown away by.

Re-listening to ScHoolboy’s Blank Face LP because of a random urge to do so. God it’s so great.

The new CyHi The Prynce album is really good. Probably a top 5 AOTY for me so far.

The Jaden Smith album was also surprisingly very good. Absolutely impeccable production.

 

[Muston Atthews]

That new Eminem song f***ing blows as has most of his music recently. Especially his songs with pop stars.

Super Slimey mixtape by Young Thug and Future is an absolute banger though

Jaden Smiths album is fantastic, really liking it.

Any hype I had for Revival just died with that whack track listing.

Any hype I had for Revival just died with that whack track listing.

Those features don't inspire a ton of confidence in me

 

[Yung Rotini]

This is the least hyped i’ve ever been for an Eminem album after seeing that tracklist. This could be Encore-level bad.

Glad you guys feel the same way. I'll always listen to a new Eminem album, but holy shit when he gets so many pop stars it makes it difficult.
