    IMO Revival is underrated as f---. It's Eminem's most personal album and I can replay songs like "In Your Head" and "Believe" forever and never be bored. Sure, 50 might say "If you make a personal record, keep it in your ipod" but I think it was courageous of Em to be vulnerable and make songs like "Bad Husband" and "Arose".

    I'm probably going to get a lot of hate for this so f--- you in advance :)

    Not trashing your opinion, I too agree it is definately underated as there are some truly great songs on there. What makes the critisism hold up though is the incoherence of the album and the literally worst ever marketing campaign.

    There's also already an unpopular opinion thread!

    Although I do enjoy it and always liked since it came out, after all this time I can say its more like em flashbacking his styles than what a new project should sound imo.
    I like how personal it is I just wish it was more of its own direction than recycling older things. That's why many people didnt like it

    I appreciate Revival for what it is but didn’t like the dramatic promotion and waiting for it for a year. If that roll out would of been for Kamikaze it sure would of been worth the wait. I’m glad it worked out like it did tho.

    Nah, Kamikaze is the far better album, but Believe, Arose, Castle and In Your Head are great songs.

    Revival is the worst “hip hop” album if it even classifies as rap that I have ever heard in my entire life. And ik rappers who fell off and put out trash music. But no one fell off a cliff as bad as Eminem did.

    He is rapping though.

    808's by Kanye is also labeled as one. Its a 10/10 to me , where revival is 3/10 , for the record, but u can argue that as well then.
