How the hell did Eminem change so much?!

[Kill You]

Let's make this simple...Em probably started around 27...now he is 39. Thats 12 years. I doubt anyone who be in the same mind frame 12 years from now.

nas.. started in '91 and he isn't the same..but he changed less then em

Has he ever become a pill zombie and almost died? Em had to relearn how to write, that's why he's so different.

There's a fine line between holding your breath and drowning.

You should be fine with your "perfect" covers of Tech N9ne tbh

Slim Shady was the Alter Ego even Em admitted himself it was a gimmick and just basically him Rapping a lotta nonsense no aim but to cause controvrsy with gimmicks it is only a matter of time till they sound weak and corny, how many more times can he Rap about serial killing, rape, taking drugs etc? After Infinite kinda didn't sell to well he admitted himself he needed a gimmick and that gimmick was shock value via the Slim Shady Alter Ego.



Now Eminem that is Deep and makes real Music that actually moves listeners and has really Deep and Personal Lyrics about life, connects with people through the Content of Lyrics and Emotion that basically has Lyrics about what people go through daily as far as struggles and harship's will always pretty much make great/classic Music hence why The Eminem Show is a classic and his best Album and why Recovery is also a classic.

Drugs can't be an excuse for everything. He started fucking with them, so all of this had to happen.
Props to Nas and everyone who didn't go through that shit, Eminem just sucked doing that, that's it.

[Aftermathers]

He should release some unreleased SSLP, and MMLP shit. Would make me love him like 10% more than I already do.

This is my entire point you are a Slim Shady Alter Ego fan that loves the Shock Value/Cartoonish Music about crazy shit just random Rapping about anything that is Shock Value basically Albums like The Slim Shady LP, Relapse Bad Meets Evil. These fans are in the minority cos quite simply most people don't like Shock Value Rapping about nonsense with no Substance, no Emotion and no Lyrical Content with meaning.



Where as most Em fans like the Deep/Emotional/Personal Eminem that Rap's about the struggles people go through, the pain's and hardship's of life with a lota Emotion the Eminem that has Substance in his Lyrics and Meaningful Lyrics and a lotta Melody/Singing as far as Hooks basically Albums like The Eminem Show, 8 Mile Soundtrack, Recovery. This is why Em is loved cos only 2pac comes close to making Music like that as good as Eminem.

Eminem was white hot during those tracks. I think his lyrical content expanded from cartoony/comedic to serious and lyrical. You can only rap like that for so long before people get bored, slash you run out of flows. It's important to always keep moving in different directions, let's face it no one wanted a relapse 2 . we wanted recovery.

Face it, relapse was one of his greatest albums lyrically. And I have yet to get bored of any of his freestyles, or any songs before Relapse and after Infinite (besides Foolish Pride)

Dude I never said I didn't like relapse. TBH i love the album, shit's dope as hell, still am bumpin it yo! I'm just saying Eminem didn't want to have any two albums to similar, and I think it's fair to say that each album he's released has been unique in it's own special way.

I can't quite understand what you're trying to say...? But the Slim Shady alter ego has some of the greatest lyrics of RAP; EVER. And not all of it is senseless, you're making it seem like Slim Shady was just some bullsh*t that he thought was funny and played around with it. He loved the alter ego and enjoyed rapping as it. It was the peak of his career in the alter ego, and when you say the majority of his fans like his deep sh*t... like Love The Way You Lie - They aren't stans .. unlike almost all of the people on here.

What The Beat > Recovery

Case closed.

[Emadyville]

I actually agree with the OP, minus the BME comment.

But you change throughout life, ask yourself in a decade why you cared and you might not know the answer lol

[legendstatus]

We could all come up with excuses as to how or why he has changed but either way someone will disagree. Bottom line he is different now for reasons that we may not know and that he only knows.

I doubt the drugs affected him that much. It's like he had a change of style.

His neck DEFINITELY got longer

[trinell05]

Maybe he doesn't want to seriously outshine everyone in the game so he's sabotaging himself to give shittier rappers a chance. It's what you expect from a humble genius. Or it could just be the hepatitis C slowly killing him inside.

Your point..?
He still flips the bird today.

[Amaranthine]

Drugs + death of his best friend + being locked from fame = a fucked up human being.

This.
