Jul 19, 2022 A bonus disc as a solo album would be such a smart move . You get the ultimate surprise drop with boosting streams to old songs as well. Plus people will want to go back and revisit CC1. So all his music would be In current rotation
Jul 19, 2022 I just listened to Farewell again, to try and figure out why it was the final track (if the tracklist is real) as it didn't do massive numbers streaming wise and it's a mid song. I get why other "random" tracks are on there but Farewell only makes sense because of the literal words of the hook and it's not even a song about retiring lol
Jul 19, 2022 I guess it would be a nice surprise for fans but a lot of criticism would come from Em/label using the success of old songs to pump up sales of a new album
Jul 19, 2022 I don’t see how it’s a sell out move . People don’t buy physical copy’s much anymore . It’s mainly streaming. So it’s not like a bunch of people are paying for one thing and gettting another. They are still getting the hits album and a full new album. I think a hits album alone is a more sell out move than it not being packaged with a album
Jul 19, 2022 Funny thing is, when Eminem doesn't drop an album when people here want him to then they blame Paul for everything but the second Em drops an album, Paul was all of a sudden never involved in the process lol
Jul 19, 2022 I get what you're saying but it's misleading, you'd be using successful songs to bring people towards the new album, it's very nice for Em fans like us but as a business move it's entirely wrong
Jul 19, 2022 He was still Eminem's manager and his name was still brought up by people on this forum during that time. I'm just saying the narrative that Paul is in full control is ridiculous
Jul 19, 2022 The problem is Paul's attached to Em's a--- like a polyp, he's in every single Em appareance, interview, he controls everything Em says or does, it's annoying af. I can't remember one of the last interviews where Paul doesn't say at least one word, cause he's near to Em like a mother to a newborn. Paul is the worst thing an artist could ask for, fr
Jul 19, 2022 Exactly, and if he tied that down with a solo album to double up sales or what ever, that would be a sell out move. He wouldn’t do that anyways but he would get a lot of s--- for that and rightfully so, I would look at him in a different light anyways.
Jul 19, 2022 This is the exact narrative I'm talking about. You have no foundation for that claim. Eminem is Paul's boss, not the other way around
Jul 19, 2022 False. But when you sell as many records as Eminem . You let him do his own thing at some point
Jul 19, 2022 Yes, you're saying Revival isn't completely wanted by Paul after Em said Not Afraid bridges and many things are supervised by Paul? Em only records stuff, the rest is not up to him
Jul 19, 2022 Not really false. He is Em's manager and lawyer. Although I suppose now they've been friends for so long they'd probably refer to each other as business partners in a professional setting now I guess
Jul 19, 2022 If Em was told to make an album sound a certain way, it would be the label who tells him that. It would have nothing to do with Paul. If Paul made the decisions regarding the final cut of the album then he would be credited as executive producer. That's what Dre is. When Em finishes his album, he goes to Dre and they work out what songs fit best for the album etc then Em turns the album into the label. We all know this by now. Paul is not involved in that process unless Em plays him something and Paul maybe thinks it will get Em bad press or whatever, but that's Paul's job as Em's manager to try and prevent things like that
Jul 19, 2022 CC2 still not on dsps, will keep yall updated and when it is on dsps i should be able to rip the song from there
