just the fact that you guys keep throwing buzzwords at me instead of posting timecodes and lyrics in accordance with your grievances makes me feel fine cherrypicking which of your "points" to respond to

Is a 7.5/10 album. Got some really good songs, but this not cohesive and, well, could be corny some times.

btw GTC, Almost Famous, No Love >>>>>

Recovery Hate thread :p nah this album does get way to much hate haha

 

Dec 22, 2014

Nah is all good. I had a moment where i thinked Recovery was a 8.5/10 album and i was bumping it a lot.

Besides the sales i think is a underrated album.

despicable f---ing buried everyone who thought em lost it with relapse

there will always be people who have gone and will go out of their way to enjoy every new album since mmlp a little bit less

The way Recovery was created I still say that leaked information about the label pushing Em to drop Relapse 2 and make an abum like Recovery was legit

Not Afraid is so overplayed that become corny. Same thing with "Love The Way You Lie".

But this objectively a good track, besides the puns lol

I have no problem with you liking Not Afraid as long as you can back it up
i posted a mike strange interview with countless legit points. lrn2read

but all you've done so far is complain about people "trolling" because they don't like it
"it's bad art" != "i dont like it"

I'm not even that vocal of a Not Afraid hater (I initially liked it when it came out, but it quickly became really corny to me)
Maybe you should have said that four pages ago

I'm just tired of you strawmanning people's arguments and then using that as a reason not to respond. I (and others) would love to have a legitimate debate with you on the subject, but you have to actually engage us.
me: i feel this way
person x: you're wrong because i feel that way and eminem sux
me: these are just our opinions
person x: no, my opinions are facts, your realworld figures and numbers backing up your statements are cringeworthy
me: out

persecution complex much?

can i ask you a serious question? why don't you post in any other sections?

Don't know if this is directed at me but I post in most sections on S80.
it was directed at IT

Fair enough, I legitimately missed that post. I'll read it and get back to you.
sweet

"it's bad art" != "i dont like it"
Who said or implied this?
anyone who keeps saying this or that is "a bad song" when all of their reasons are in their own head

Maybe you should have said that four pages ago
All I said was that it wasn't flawless. That doesn't necessarily mean that I hate it.
sorry if i mix replies up with others'

me: i feel this way
person x: you're wrong because i feel that way and eminem sux

person x: no, my opinions are facts, your realworld figures and numbers backing up your statements are cringeworthy

There are certainly people who do this, but it's not only in the Eminem section. It happens in the Drake section all the time, and it happened in the Kanye threads back on SL as well.
nothing happens in any drake or kanye section all the time because there's nobody there (all the love in the world to has doe)

However, you also keep posting about how dumb we are for "not getting" the genius behind certain Eminem songs, which also makes you sound like you're presenting your own opinions as fact. It's a two-way street.
It's dumb to say a song is bad based on personal taste which happens too much imho in this section. i'm presenting what i gather from music and literature are eminem's opinions and intentions. the fact that i agree with most of them, just like most normal people agree with most things their favorite artist says, whether the artist is a rap singer or a rap god, is totally inconsequential tbh

additionally, this section is filled with (not even exaggerating) children and people who while they might deny it up and down would love eminem if he was black

if all of my arguments are so flawed, i'll get bored and leave eventually
either that or you will for some other reason because it couldn't possible be cause of lil old me, making me the only one left, and patting myself on the back isn't too difficult

 

Dec 22, 2014

woah dude em himself has said he'd have done better if he was black
i'm not tryna pull a michael richards here

it's nice that you let the rest of my points "go" though

 

Dec 22, 2014

maybe it's cuz i ain't black maybe it's bcuz a dat

This convo is very engaging
