Eminem ain't what he used to be. I especially dislike how political he has become, it seems like a front to sell records. His brain got fried from his battle with pills.
Eminem political now?? Yuck.
His younger self would probably have had a field day with Trump being president.
Ya that is a questionable comment. The Eminem Show was very political and Encore had a few of its own as well.
It’s not like being political is something new. This is the same guy who was being watched/investigated after Mosh. TES was also along those political lines.Eminem ain't what he used to be.

Same with MMLP2, which I actually liked.
If he limited that album to Bad Guy, Rhyme or Reason, Berzerk (lead single, I guess?), Rap God, Brainless, So Far, Love Game, Headlights and Evil Twin and limited Revival to 6-8 of the best tracks (and didn't cut supposed features with 2 Chainz, Big Sean, Kendrick, etc.) people probably wouldn't be hesitant to still call him one of the tops of the 2010s even, imo.
@The Nuge Believe is one big meh for me, Chloraseptic is okay but would have been better with the rumoured 2 Chainz feature with this being the song he was supposed to be on, but Framed, Castle and Arose are much better than just "ok," IMO. Framed actually brought me back to flashbacks of some older Em and showed me he's still perfectly capable of putting some good stuff out there, he just doesn't do it on his own albums for some reason.
Lil Pump as avatar, calls projects trash without listening to them. Thanks for letting me know what quality your opinion on music is.More like Dead On Arrival, am I right?!
Trash, and I didn't even listen to it.
Politics is probably the only thing left in Eminem's life that he has anger for, yet there's people complaining about it being too political yet not angry enough? Surprise, almost all rappers become softer than they were in their 20s. If you can get over that, ya might enjoy this album.

lol at Em's response about how he feels about Revival
"I don't know. I feel good enough to put it out. I guess we'll have to see what the reaction is."
it's honestly kinda sad to see how low his confidence is in his own work. I mean... it's not good work, but it's sad to see.
I don't think so. I'd hope not. He's still perfectly capable of putting out good songs and verses. He puts out good features for the most part, his last EP with Royce was good where he could just rap and not have to worry about radio hits. He can still rap. He won't rap like he used to before the near overdose, but I don't buy for a second that he can't ride a beat anymore and flow properly when he does it on this album (Framed, Castle, Arose).Maybe he knows his time has passed??

I don't think he can still hang with the likes of Kendrick these days -- no one can, though -- but he's perfectly capable of putting out good stuff.
Not according to his latest album he's not.
Accents aside his bars on Relapse are sick. It’s still underrated imo. I’d rather listen to Relapse than a majority of Recovery.
Relapse. Some of the bars are insane but yet no one pays attention because they became so focused on the accents.Are we talking Relapse or Relapse: Refill? Aside from Beautiful, Relapse is seriously lacking. It’s kind of sad that the 9 extra songs (Deluxe edition and Refill) are better than the album itself. IMO, Refill is underrated. Relapse isn’t.
