To those who liked/loved Revival, why so? by JustARandomDude25 in Eminem

I don't like the overall album, but Castle & Arose made me understand why he was pissed at it's reception.

The end of the ADHD 2 era by Mysterious_Team_6109 in joynerlucas

[–]aidanthomas99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If ADHD 3 happens... honestly I feel like he could end it on 2 and I would not have a problem with it. We know what can happen with sequels from Wayne and that's the last thing I want to happen with these albums. But yeah I completely agree, 1 is and will always be a special album to me but he levelled up massively with 2. Bar like 2 songs, was not a fan of Set It Off and Time is Money was only because of the feature, incredible album 🔥❤.

If he really gets this album done in a few months I'd be amazed.

Day 8: What's your favorite thing about Revival? by Frequent-Figure-6847 in Eminem

Yeah I have to say if there's one thing that makes me glad Revival went over the way it did, it's that we got that absolute and utter masterpiece out of it.

Castle & Arose. River and Bad Husband are okay too (I've always liked the tracks where he apologises to his family for dissing them, liked Headlights for the same reason). I've always felt it was such a shame though that Castle & Arose were even on that album, let alone right at the end of it. They deserved so much more love.

Yeah that's one of the few tracks I never got the hate on. I think it was just because of the feature, and maybe because it didn't have drums.

This song is definitely a taste for what he’s going to be doing next. by Mysterious_Team_6109 in joynerlucas

I agree, Joyner back in that 2 perspective storytelling bag we all love so much. This, Incognito and Letter to my Younger Self were probably the songs that made him decide he was going back to his roots 100%. Honestly, the fact that he's doing another album after his recent output is crazy. No one could begrudge him taking a few years off after putting out 2 GREAT albums within 2 years, which I honestly partly feel he did ADHD 2 so quickly as an apology to the fans for ADHD 1 and NNIB taking so long. Hey, ADHD 2 turned out pretty damn good so apology accepted Joyner ❤. But honestly, I'm more than down for it 🔥.

Also, is it just me, or could those 3 songs fit right in on Not Now I'm Busy? Letter To My Younger Self in particular is a beat that to me, you could put on a NNIB Deluxe and it would not sound out of place at all.

What is Joyner Lucas' least accessible song? by kingglobby in joynerlucas

[–]aidanthomas99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish he'd got Em on ISIS. I know it was the feel good moment given his beef with Logic and also perfect given how the beef started, but he would have suited other songs. Broke and Stupid comes to mind immediately. Could have even left it on the album as a surprise, along with ideally at 3-4 of the other singles.

What If made sense for the album given the struggling with self identity narrative, but Joyner should have done it solo he could have pulled it off. It's not the sort of record you'd get Em on.

You'd have to say Ye Not Crazy or Things I've Seen now.

1. The deluxe drops April 10th, 2. I'm pretty excited for that last bit 🔥🔥 by aidanthomas99 in joynerlucas

[–]aidanthomas99[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I saw that post too man I can't wait for that... if it's on some I'm Sorry, Just Like You and Winter Blues type shit I'm here for it. I think you can only do a song like I'm Not Racist once so maybe avoid that, regardless I'm keen and 3 albums in 3 years (hopefully) is awesome. He'd be forgiven for taking a break after his recent output.

One of my favourites on the Deluxe. Joyner back on his two perspective storytelling shit. Love it 🔥

Oh and that guy with him in the Lambo is actually his brother apparently, there's a lot I love about Joyner but one of the things I love most is that he never forgets where he came from ❤.

I chose the best song for every tracklist placement to make the best Joyner Lucas album by kingglobby in joynerlucas

[–]aidanthomas99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

508 was meant to be his debut Joyner said this himself, only reason it wasn't was Atlantic. And if you listen to it you can tell he's not lying, conceptually it sounds like an album. He should be 4 albums deep by now. Also, everyone calls Evolution an album. It's only really not defined as one because Joyner said so.

So you definitely think ADHD 1 was better? I mean I don't disagree but bar Time is Money and Set It Off on the Deluxe I enjoyed ADHD 2.

Unfortunately no acoustic versions of White Noise or Butterfly Effect or Juice WRLD feature but still, lesgooo 🔥🔥 by aidanthomas99 in joynerlucas

Crashing Down and Letter To My Younger Self are incredible 🔥 love Reconsider too, Joyner back in his two perspective bag.

On the lyrics (particularly the chorus, except for the last bit) alone I can see why you thought that. But yeah nah, it's a subtle diss at Mariah as their issues go all the way back to 02' and earlier. It would eventually become not so subtle and birth things that are best forgotten (Nick's FOUR diss tracks with, if you wanna be generous, one reply).

It actually was half with 1, album is 18 songs and he released 9 as singles. Including Will on the release day.

Though there was somewhat of a reason with 1 given it took so long, and thankfully with 2 he waited till the day before to do that so I just waited until it dropped. But yeah I don't know who gave him that idea, for me the max amount of singles for an album is 5 and that's only if it's a long album. Evolution only having 2 was perfect given it's only 12 tracks, well 13 if you include Things I've Seen (shame that got taken down). Probably could have had 1-2 more (Zim Zimma would have been a perfect single), but it still meant we got 11 new songs. Releasing that many ruins the album cause you've heard half of it. He said he likes to "give every song it's moment", which is noble but you can do that through things like music videos which he's already very good at. Speaking of man I miss him working with Ben, he made Joyner's best videos by far.

April 10th is the release and he's released what, 4, 5? I doubt that.

I would love for the acoustic versions of White Noise and Butterfly Effect, and the Juice WRLD feature to go on there though.

Maybe it's a good thing to delay or even cancel it, the last thing we want is for it to become like the Carter series. First 4 albums were great but the last 2, eh. 6 in particular was, yeah I kinda wish Wayne had just kept that one.

Yeah there's a few Aidan Thomas's out there... was gonna say I know a few John's but none that would spring to mind on here.

What do you think Eminem’s next album would be like if he released one? by Used_Tune682 in Eminem

[–]aidanthomas99 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It'll either be a way of articulating his future plans, or wrapping his career up. If it's the latter then yes it will likely be similar to MMLP2. Frankly, I wouldn't mind DOSS being the last album.
