May 22, 2024 No they don't lol. You're living in a bubble bro. You think because you're so obsessed with Eminem, the world is. The average music listener long checked out of Eminem. People are not following him and do not know he's about making music. I've grown up listening to him and shoving him down my family's throats, but even they don't know, how would they, unless I mention it to them or show them a new song. He's not affecting the broader culture like that. Wheras people just 'know' Taylor Swift is about and releasing s---.
May 22, 2024 Eminem has roughly the same # of monthly listeners as Kanye on Spotify and he'll be on the front page when he drops and inserted into playlists, he's obviously not as big as he was but he's a legacy act and people will know when he drops bro lol. He just doesn't have a constant online presence like Drake and isn't doing wild s--- in the news like Kanye
May 22, 2024 You can quote Spotify numbers all you want lol. Numbers DO lie. Although first week sales of MTBMB are much closer to the reality. An online hit doesn't mean the broader world is up on him. Anyone who knows more than 1 person or doesn't live in their mother's basement knows this. In every day life - working with people, talking with people, of all generations... they do not. He is not followed, thought about or on people's radar like a current popular figure. He's just not. And anyone who can't admit that is either deluded or in denial.
May 22, 2024 Because he does all that cryptic stuff with clues and hints, that only his hardcore fans are aware of, instead of promoting his work seriously. He's gonna sell 100k at most with this approach.

May 22, 2024 You’re starting at a false hypothesis in the first place. Why are random anecdotes of people you speak to a reference point for music consumption gauging & not the data from streaming/sales? Not everyone pays attention to music at all. Even those that do don’t necessarily keep up with the latest news, trends & releases. The Kendrick x Drake beef set the music world on fire but the average joe won’t have even heard the songs.
May 22, 2024 Em has never been an artist that people like to admit they listen to. But they do, that's the thing. Just look at the amount of people that attend his shows. How many rappers have you seen pack a stadium?
May 22, 2024 Lmao you just said godzilla isnt a ww hit so...Are you really thinking everybody following drake when he is doing a rollout? No,if they arent interested in music they wont know they will know when album drops and they will just listen the 'mainstream' songs on it then leave lmao I aint waiting a stan insterest in public to eminem but everybody knows he is still making music,both mtbmb and kamikaze was big
May 22, 2024 Your second paragraph is spot on. He’s assuming that everyone pays attention to the music or hip hop landscape when many literally don’t. The fact is though that MANY people listen to Eminem and are aware when he drops an album. His streaming numbers and the sales of his recent albums show that.
May 22, 2024 I'm so obsessed with music and hip hop specifically that I sometimes forget there are people who just put on their earbuds and pick a random playlist on spotify without giving a f---, nothing wrong with that, I just forget that that happens lol
May 22, 2024 Got sick of being attacked for info so I won't share anymore here. I told them about the magic tricks months ago and they spit in my face. Was expecting an apology by now but whatever, their loss. Check DMs.

May 22, 2024 bro's saying "the broader world" isn't "up on him" like he's some underground artist lol yeah of course most of the world isn't on fan forums posting threads about what color they think his pubes are, this is true for literally every artist ever. he's a legacy act like jay z or bob dylan or whoever who mostly keeps to themselves but it's always front page music news when they drop and becomes a big part of the discourse for a minute. like bro he was just all over the news for his daughter's wedding. he's still one of the most famous people in the world no one is saying he has the same cultural cache he had in 2002 but like you don't just stop being that famous man lol
