Why were there no skits on recovery...

+1 to the above.


The skits really add something to the album: they show creative thought and highlight that the artist is doing more than filling a CD with music: they're sacrificing one or more tracks to try and tell a story which is really commendable.

Cut 'Talking to Myself' or WBD off Recovery and put in some skits. Even if he just slipped in one, I think one before 'You're Never Over' would work wonders. It could be like the skit before 'My Fault' where there's a group of them singing the hook, or genuinely just fucking around with the song's concept. It would take a lot of the cheesy-ness of that track away IMO.

Album length was 76:55 according to my mp3 playlist. he had roughly 3:45 left assuming it was manufactured on a 80 minute cd. When I burned CD's a long long long time ago there was a 2 second pause mode between tracks option that supposedly takes more disc space but that's just an option usually. Maybe that was the guidelines he was given. If I remember it still only cuts out about minute worth of data. I don't care about the skits either way. I would rather he put some comedy back into the albums though.

he would of had 3:05

time goes by 60's you silly goose

I don't really care about skits. If he does them it's cool, if he doesn't it's cool too. I just don't give a fuck.

[Kill You]

^ Agree with that. Didn't Em add all that stuff in the song?

I really hope we get more songs sounding like The Reunion...as in the beat and whole vibe.

@Geno, there were a lot of adlibs on "Richard", I actually liked that!

[tjvatikaki21]

No skits = more songs. So I really had no problem with them being absent. I also don't have a problem with them at the same time though. Can go either way with me.

same here

Yeah! He's starting to do it more often. I missed it. Also, on HMWYBS he layered his vocals. I've been waiting for that too. I'd rather him do that then explain his punchlines in the following lines lol.

HMWYBS?

He should do more skits IN songs.

Criminal was epic. Or the skits in Guilty Conscience. Or the sick intro of Bad Meets Evil. Or even if it's just like a little 5-second interlude like Stan or As The World Turns where he rapes the girl with his Go-Go Gadget dick.

Fuck, he had some ideas in those first two albums. Where are the creative ideas now?

I agree completely. You know what else I'd like? More of his sound effects in the background. I got all excited in the intro for The Reunion because he said "C'mere bitch!" and she screamed. Sounded just like As The World Turns. Might even be a sample, I can't tell.

I want more stuff like that. It adds that humourous effect without technically being funny.

His adlibs are hilarious! They help paint the entire picture in your head, like his verse in What's The Difference.

[Emadyville]

he had a ton of album worthy material, so they put it all on the album.

lol. I'm definitely not standing on top my monopoly board.

[the real slim shady]

He can still do Ken Kaniff. That's all I care about.

Im thinking that he will put the final ken skit in this next album. Killing him off, but in a good way.




We can all dream.

[slimfan94]

All I want is Steve Berman and Paul. And also some opening skit but something new. He's not gonna do ken kannif nor do I want him to.

Ken can't die. Ken is awesome.

Nah man he's a faggot.

He can still do Ken. It's pretty easy TBH. Although the Ken skit on SSLP was Aristotle, and not Eminem.
