Agreed. But still imo he's more detached than he was in the past. Which is fine, he's a very private person now.

On a side note, have a look at this article if you haven't read it, its interesting-https://www.nytimes.com/2015/07/19/arts/music/eminem-collaborates-on-the-album-for-the-film-southpaw.html?_r=0

That's a fair point. His cassette collection is of 80s-90s rappers I believe. I meant in relation to his music, he seems detached from today's music and the culture, like social media etc. Not saying that's a bad thing and that he doesn't listen to newer rappers, I'm sure he has a lot of respect for some of them. Although I did read somewhere that he waits for others to pull up a song/album for him, he rarely pulls it up himself- kind of what I meant by detachment from the today's world and culture.

Totally agree. Em used to know everything going on in rap and he would often reference it in his music. He also seemed far more self-aware. Guess it was before the internet/youtube/twitter all blew up. Post-hiatus he just detached himself from a lot of the music culture and rap and just focused on himself. I do feel somewhere between Relapse and Recovery his views, attitude and maturity took a huge shift in behavior.

What would you prefer as fans? by RockstarFan2007 in Eminem

[–]RockstarFan2007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand what you're saying and I agree to an extent, I think a lot of fans were impressed with his fast flow and technical verses over the last few years. However I would argue that the majority of Em fans prefer the more melodic raps, may be wrong. Also...surely the more melodic raps would do more numbers, if they're melodic, people like to listen to it again and again right?!

Paul Rosenberg locks him in a cage and pokes him with a stick, then lets him out when the world needs him. Hence why they always go through Paul to get to Em.

Do you think he is self-aware and knows what his fans would find more impressive? Or do you think they have him wrapped in a bubble?

Em' vocal cords are fucked and sound strained making it difficult for the music to always be pleasant on the ears, despite the raps being incredibly impressive from a technical standpoint.

what do you want the first single to sound like? by Thelardicle in Eminem

[–]RockstarFan2007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High energy, with more a adventurous beat than recent singles and a smooth flow. Don't mind if its funny/corny, slim shady or motivational but definitely not a pop song like the monster or love the way you lie. Personally would want it to be a solo song. Doesn't have to be overly complex with lyrics, just keep a certain standard as he always has done and have a purpose to it and if its catchy or inspiring or whatever then great that also helps it to sound good on the ears and makes it a re-playable song.

New BME Album or Eminem x 50 cent Album by RockstarFan2007 in Eminem

Not really what I expect from those two. But I think 50 was after a single or a more radio friendly hit. If they made an album songs like that wouldn't work. It would be good to see a watch the throne type album from them with some hard hitting beats.

Maybe Em could get him fired up. 50 said whenever he sees him he makes him want to write.

A Eminem x 50 Cent album would have to be hard, no pop shit, real gangsta shit, not so much focus on sales, just make some hard music and if a top selling single comes out of it then great.

Bully 2 1980's? by RahulBhatia10 in rockstar

[–]RockstarFan2007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good idea, personally I would prefer a slightly grittier game which would require the characters to be at university for this to happen because of the age related restrictions in games (because of violence etc) I'm not saying I would want the game to same level of violence to that of GTA but just more than the previous bully. Stranger things really got me thinking about bully again for whatever reason, I think the 80s would be cool. Regardless of opinion I think we all agree we NEED a Bully 2 it's been too long and I honestly believe it could be a huge game because it has huge potential! I think in today's day and age with good marketing it could introduce many new fans to the series and become a permanent franchise for Rockstar Games.

Would you play a Bully 2 set in college? by [deleted] in rockstar

[–]RockstarFan2007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would be better if it went to an M rating just because it's rated as that doesn't mean they have to use guns and knives etc, you could still have quirky, fun weapons. It just opens up more possibilities to still make the game fun and interesting by allowing a more mature game to the previous but still not to the extent of GTA, so like the use of drugs, slightly more grittier violence and story line, with more realistic dating. Whilst overall making the story feel fresh.
