Apr 26, 2024 The Death of Slim Shady is the same fan draw as Infinite 2 on April 1st. This is all preparation for the real album coming out in October.
Apr 26, 2024 What I'd like: Stick to the concept, please Old gen and new gen features (50, Royce, Denzel, J. Cole, Kendrick) Autistic lyricism (not the same as fast rapping) Better hooks Skits that are either related to the concept or help tell the story of the album What I wouldn't mind: Nostalgia bait referencing classic tracks from the ssep/sslp era Lighthearted s--- to counter the darker tones the album might have A pop single if done right One last Slim Shady track (more like "we made you" rather than something from mmlp2) If he retires the Slim Shady persona after this If this is the beginning of a new trilogy/era/whatever What I wouldn't like: a pop single if they f--- it up formulaic s--- we've seen for the past 3 albums or so the concept being surface level with only 2 or 3 tracks actually sticking to it triple timing for no reason at all yet another attempt at a victory anthem Toxic relationship = Music/Hip-Hop/Drugs/Fame
Apr 26, 2024 This Spotify Marketing is dope. I’m still in a shock he is doing a traditional rollout finally.
Apr 26, 2024 With the promo on the right track thus far, what first week numbers do you think the album will pull? let’s say he drops a single, goes on a wild promo run, drops a few interviews, potential tv ad slots, posters around cities (like MMLP2)
Apr 26, 2024 Yeah I would like features that are good at staying on topic like the ones you listed, if it's a concept album you gotta make sure everyone on it understands their assignment.
Apr 26, 2024 The album trailer on IG is nearing 500,000 likes, youtube video has nearly 500,000 views itself, Twitter video has 39,000 likes, I’d say that’s all pretty good for an album TRAILER. Now when the cover and release date are revealed, I feel like that’s when the attention will s---t through the roof. People who follow Em himself/rap news accounts know this album is coming, but I think it will continue to get more press and more hype in the coming weeks. Great album with promo done right, 350K. Physicals first week? Maybe 500K tbh.
Apr 26, 2024 0 faith he will stick to the concept of the title. You could do trailers for Kamikaze and especially MTBMB to make it look like what he is doing here on the trailer, but it soon quickly just turned into what ever after a song or two with a skit.
Apr 26, 2024 I can already see posters all around the world saying that Slim Shady has gone missing or an Eminem wanted poster. Hyped AF.
