Embedded it for you:


I agree with them about the production, and how it sounds like it would be an Eminem album featuring Slaughterhouse. The lines that the dude in the black shirt pointed out just makes me dislike the album even more, knowing that there's bad lines left and right on this album.

And to the guy in the middle, pointing out how the production sort of "trapped" the group, I agree on that also. I've listened to a few other Slaughterhouse songs before this album and I just gotta say, the production does not really fit them that well. Slaughterhouse needs beats that are more open, beats that they could just rip on. The beats they rapped over on most songs sounded like they were meant for Em.

And just a side note, I don't think they worked well with the "Asylum" beat, at all. When I imagine Slaughterhouse, I imagine this group of just excellent lyricists with these big, booming voices stepping to the mic and rapping to their hearts content. Eminem would fit the "Asylum" production, but not Slaughterhouse.

All I have to say for now.

I agree with a majority of what they said, and if you don't think that the production is Recovery 2.0 you're out of your mind.

It sounded desperate for commercial success and kinda isolated their core audience, they really needed to find the right balance.

I didn't check out the mix tape because I thought it would be throwaway album tracks, will definitely check it out after listening to this review.

Theses Guys are pretty accurate with their reviews.

But it's not what a typical Eminem album would sound like so it's irrelevant.

Yeah, but it's what the last Eminem album album sounded like so it is. He obviously gave Slaughterhouse his 2010 formula for success in 2012.

Yep. The guys in the video even pointed that out. It was something along the lines of, "Em just made them do what worked for him," or something like that. :-k

Yeah, but Eminem dropped 3 classics that were majorly successful, not 1 above average album that did 18k first week and a dud commercial debut.

When did you become a Hip-Hop Head :-k

When did you? I never claimed I was. I'm just saying the first album was head over heals (no pun intended) above what they just shit out. I mean, the new album has some tracks that may get replayed for a while, but more than half of it was a let down. I mean their first album was AMAZING for 6 days and a small budget. You'd think if they went mainstream, which I expected, they'd put more effort into it. Why should I trust an album anyway when one of it's members is trying to distance himself from it. The first album is what they should have built on, that was the foundation, and this should have been a classic regardless of them going mainstream or not. The only way is up, but they went down. Does this mean I won't listen to their music an give them fair chances, no. I'll probably listen to every fucking track til I die, but I feel they just wrapped their shit in a doggy bag and let Eminem mix it. I bought the tracks I liked, and let the other fuck themselves.

Man, Deadendhiphop never dissapoints!!

But, why the fuck is No-one defending Eminem outside this forum? It gets to me, it really genuinly fucking does!! Eminem told Slaughterhouse to do what they did on their first album. Thats what HE wanted. They made this, and now they trying to paint him as a villain?! FUCK THAT!! I'm really getting more riled up about it.

At the end of the day, fuck buying this album. I wanted to, but i agree with Mike. If we continue to buy the bad crap they feed us (Lasers, This, Radioactive) they will continue to use that as a formula to success. I'm glad no-one who is not receiving a paycheck from Shady records likes it. Its a critical fail. If it becomes a commercial fail too they will go back to what they are good at.

I enjoyed the album. #jussayin

It's not Eminem's fault, he told them do what you want and I'll back it. They said give us Recovery 2.0.

Eminem told them to do the same thing they did in their first album, they didn't. They clearly want commercial success which isn't a bad thing, but they're grown men.

Not true at all.

It's pretty obvious that both Lupe and Yelawolf aren't happy with their previous albums.

And how many times did Slaughterhouse say, "Em just told us to do what we do, he didn't want to stunt our creative integrity and said to just do us". My God...


But, for Yelawolf, when the album did not SELL well that is when he changed his creative direction. If it had done a My Name is we would have gotten a TRSS, Without Me, We Made You versions of Good girl and that would have been just bad.

That said, it seems only Eminem fans like Skylar Grey? :unsure: I'm not the biggest fan of her voice but her writting is very solid.
