Sep 24, 2016 i dont think thats why he is so silent these days.. my guess is that he is tryin to be sure what direction he will follow for a next project cause clearly he is not that creative the last years.. i mean he covered every topic we all know everything about him, what else could he talk about? hence the motivational songs and the rapity rap s---.. his fanbase will always stay no matter what.
Sep 24, 2016 You'd be silent too if you made 17 tracks of yelling. Gotta give those chords time to recover
Sep 24, 2016 So @Koolo do you still think his album will be released 11/4, which would be the perfect way to see what he still can do in numbers of sales?
Sep 24, 2016 He's popular because he's not only the best rapper of all time, objectively, but he's also one of the best music artists ever as well. He's transcended rap, at this point. Every verse is anticipated with the excitement that a new Picasso painting might generate, because he's a genius.
Sep 24, 2016 There's a certain mystique when he speaks that's sort of unique, you know it's him. His poetry is deep and he's Stillmatic the way he flows on the beat, you can't sit still, it's like trying to smoke crack and go to sleep. He's the equivalent of what would happen if Bush rapped. He bullies these rappers so bad lyrically, it's not even funny and he's not about money. Basically, his noodle is cockadoodle, his clock's coo-coo.
Sep 24, 2016 He could literally revert back to some underground type music, focusing on his niche interests, like Relapse was but not trying to appeal to any mainstream channels. Eminem is a big name that attracts insane number of people, but something like 70% of those people are only aware of his popular songs or singles. If he dropped that, he could go off the radar, which would be a good thing for him. He doesn't have to be relevant.
Sep 24, 2016 Well, he's always very worried about his popularity. Encore hurt his popularity so he took a long vacation. Relapse flopped then he decided to release Recovery immediately. And he collaborated with Rihanna twice.
Sep 24, 2016 or maybe he took a vacation because his best friend died and he was a depressed drug addict
Sep 24, 2016 A bit of mystery around him does work too. Imagine if he was tweeting every day about some random s---, people would get fed up quickly. Everyone loves a bit of mystery.
Sep 24, 2016 Encore didn't hurt his popularity. The album just fell flat in quality. He was still going very strong (popularity wise) going into releasing Curtain Call.
Sep 24, 2016 Difference is Outkast don't do anywhere near the numbers Eminem does record sales wise or have as many top ten hits as him or appeal to anywhere as near as many non hip hop fans
