Yeah, people are very narrow minded. This definitely did not hurt the buzz...
If you look at what blogs and news sites are saying, its for sure ADDING to the buzz. In Europe Eminem is doing all these performances and interviews, but nothing is going on here until the Not Afraid video. So BAM, they release this Pink song. People are talking, maybe saying 'hey yeah and the Not Afraid video is due out Saturday... album in a few weeks'.
It not only shows that angry Em, lyrically crazy Em and tons of metaphors, it actually reaches out to a wider audience than Not Afraid. Rock fans, angry people, whatnot. Maybe perk their ears up for what is next, too..
If this new Tim Westwood freestyle comes out today, then the Not Afraid video tomorrow, then maybe a fire track with Rihanna on Tuesday... I think the Recovery ship will be on full steam.
The only think missing right now is a real hip hop song. Something super bump-able with heavy bass in your car. Just blaze? Havoc? Calling you two...
