    i been thinking about this

    logically, with what Eminem gave us in the last 10 years, there is no reason for people to salivate that much over him....so is the fact he never put out news or music the reason his fanbase still drooling over him?

    Because he's a controversial white pop star that used to s--- on all the other female pop stars.

    From a marketing perspective, I think that Eminem's popularity can be attributed to the fact that as an artist he's willing to polarize people.

    It doesn't matter if what he put out the last 10 years isn't as good. The fact that he has so many hits from his prime to always maintain his massive popularity. I know casual Eminem fans that are even wanting a new Em album. I'm really drooling over new Em because I want something great from him. MMLP2 is my least favorite release of his. It's been 6 years since he released a great album in my mind.

    I want his music simply because he's my favourite artist. I know he's not as good as he once was but I still enjoy his music output for the most part. In fact, my only PROBLEM with him is how little he puts out music and how quiet he gets. That's the most irritating part.

    i think big reason to that is how unique he is, if your not a fan of rap and you become a fan of Eminem...you may not like anything else in that genre because his style doesnt rly reflect the general rap community...he is very unique in that regard....so people will often just listen to the people in close circle of him

    You would have to like double his sales for him to have sold 300 million.

    exactly this. the fact that Eminem is still extremely popular is more of a statement of how great his prime material was than anything else.

    Eminem has been bad longer than he has been good now but people still hope he will somehow rebounce with his new album to come.
