Now Em fans care about reviews....

How about every album since Eminem Show aside from the EP Hell the Sequel got pretty average or mediocre reviews???

I'm a huge Em fan but Em fans only care about reviews from critics when it suits their arguments.

Critics supposedly think Watch the Throne and Yeezus are better than Eminem Show, and that 808 Heartbreak shit is better than any Em album since TES????

Yeah, critics are full of shit a lot of times.

We as fans love eminem and are interesting in hearing other people's perspectives and opinions on one of our favorite artists to see how they compare/contrast to our own in a life long journey of both self indulgence and discovery.


Calm the fuck down dude lol
Predominantly, predominantly, everything's always predominantly
Predominantly white, predominantly black
Well what about me? where does that leave me
Well I guess that Im between predominantly both of em
I think if I hear that fuckin word again Imma scream
While I'm projectile vomiting, what do I look like, a comedian to you?
Do you think that I'm kidding?

I guarantee The Monster will get decent reviews, and people on here will use that as a reason they think the song is good.

Oh and 808 is fucking garbage man, even the most die hard Kanye fans admit that.

Well obviously we'd like to see what the masses think of the song and if they share the same views as we do. That's a fucking given. It's called human curiosity.

808's was raw. Just unexpected at the time.
Robocop >
Amazing >
Love Lockdown >
Coldest Winter >
Heartless>

I guess you have to be able to relate to relationships with complications to appreciate 808's or even LTWYL. dunno why the southpark goth kid esque people on this site say it's so awful.

1) No.
2) No.

3) Hell no.

808's was a divisive album when it came out, but most fans have come to consider it one of is greatest accomplishments.

Personally, that shit is my favorite album and I blast that shit everyday.

808's wasn't Kanye-level excellence but I don't agree that it's garbage..
That aside.. yes Stans will use any positive review, award won, or voting poll on BET/MTV as part of their argument. Popularity = Skill/Good music :laughing:

Poppy and catchy, great for album sales from teeny boppers, good marketing from that side of it. Me, I don't love it or hate it, still enjoying it though for what it is, catchy as fook. I prefer songs like 'love you more, Stan, Music Box, Kim, Criminal', but for a single it's a good move! Doubt the alb will have anymore tracks like that on it, even 'My name is', was thought of as poppy song with good lyrics from the mass of ppl!!!
