    You got a point. You're right but yes Slaughterhouse is kinda irrelevant but Yela is very unique they just don't market him much and properly. They kinda missed a chance with him..

    He's been experimenting with trap snares and new school beats after the criticism from MMLP2's production
    • That part in Vegas
    • Raw
    • Medicine Man
    • The Hills Remix
    Clearly is going in a mainstream direction. I anticipate a Recovery 2.0 with better beats and a weirder flow.

    They can go gold at least.There are many rappers doing it. Kanye, JayZ Kendrick ASAP Rocky Big Sean Drake Nicki Minaj Lil Wayne and some new stupid a--- rappers. Tyga did it I guess once. Macklemore etc. Many rappers

    Yelawolfs older music I agree on. But "Love Story"? He basically made a hip hop album with a ton of country influence. The majority of hip hop and country fans don't like each others genre. So marketing that would've been a nightmare. Not "cool" enough to win over the urban audience and "To edgy" for the country audience.

    That's why I have so much faith in his next album.
    I really hope though that he doesn't try to be to lyrical on those.

    I legitimately wonder what the people who work for shady records do everyday. Even on the rare occasions that one of their artists is going to drop an album, they don't give any publicity. Like seriously, wtf do they do?

    Launder money for the Impoverished Detroit drug-dealers? They've never really done anything to my knowledge. They are like, more of a logo, than an actual record label

    You like Logic in 2015 :wth:

    I will never understand hip hop's infatuation with numbers and relevancy.

    More relevant you are more they gonna listen to you. Numbers don't mean album sales. It could be number of people watched your music videos. It could be number single sales. It could be the number of people you give concert for etc. Numbers are very related to relevancy, popularity and success.

    I'm down with that kind of Encore II if Em is gonna go back to Encore era flow. It wasn't the best but simply had a whole lot Eminem feel to it..
