Eminem - MMLP2 Discussion Thread

[Hammer]

cd is ALWAYS the best quality. ALWAYS

if you want the music on any of your devices you can just transfer them onto whatever you want.

and you will always have the physical album/jewel case/artwork etc


doesnt make sense to me either to buy a digital copy for the same price

yeah, i'll probably buy the physical copy this week too

 

[ArchStanton]

smh at Dre not having one track on this album


fuckin bum

Is he saving up for something (don't laugh) or is he completely finished? I just can't see it any other way. No tracks or guest vocals on an Eminem album. Weird.

 

[Ranger21]

the deluxe (double album) is already sold out at a lot of stores from what im seeing on twitter

 

[ArchStanton]

They had a ton of them at the Target I went to but no single editions. Best Buy didn't have any out though, but tons of the single edition. I don't think they were sold out, they just didn't get them in or have them out--why, I don't know.

Yeah looks like the deluxe albums are the ones that are sold out. Those are being sold and counted by RIAA as a double album

 

[Funcrusher]

Why didn't you get in on CD? I'm having a hard time justifying buying a digital copy with limited format for the same price as a cd.

Same here, only reason I see is buying it off bandcamp digitally because it's not available elsewhere and the money goes directly to the artist.

 

[CASHAPP]

yup i did the same....if i happen to be at a store that sells the physical i might pick it up but why not just get it right on my 5s right away

-----

its truly shady season:

Em has 6 albums on the top 60 list on itunes right now and 4 songs in the top 10?

is this album a lock to go plat 1st week?

its gonna sell 1.5 million

Ok now that i've heard the album in full, I have to say the bonus tracks really help the album feel more like "Marshal Mathers LP" so he did do things that made it feel like a sequel. With that said there was clearly some carry over from Recovery. My biggest beef with this album is the production. I'm sorry but a lot of beats are not that great. But Em did come through lyrically as always though some of his punchlines did come off forced. Overall not good enough to carry the MMLP name and Em is clearly on the downside of his career musically. But There is no denying Em's creativity and talent. I'd rather hear Em than 90% of the rappers who are currently popular now. But Please for the love of God Em. STOP THE YELLING. I agree with what @Antbarr said in a different thread about Em. Em's vocal control is all over the damn place.

Thinking about copping this ish from amazon. Why is the full CD + MP3 autorip cheaper than the MP3 album by itself?

[Colejeezy]

The bonus tracks are straight fire, makes the album alot better.

 

[jaydolf spitler]

Still haven't even come close to looking for a download. and I'm cool with that

 

[GoldenGlove]

If Eminem just had somebody else do every hook for him his music would sound better. His hooks in general have always been hit or miss, but they're trash on this album. Mainly because of the forced singing or yelling. It makes it harder to even want to finish tracks. It's messed up cause he's spitting on some of these joints (especially the bonus cuts).

I am a old Em fan but the only tracks I like is Wicked ways, Love Game and Berzerk.

I hated Love Game and Berzerk at the first listen but Berzerk got kind of a catchy hook and Kendrick made me listen to Love Game again and his verse and hook saves the record but both Eminems verses are ehhh.. They get better after 2 listens but still dont fit the beat like Kendricks.

I dont get it. Why cant he make records anymore? He stuck out and had his own style when he started. Now he sounds like a lyrical underground rapper over pop beats but like many other lyrical underground rappers he cant make songs that you can vibe to.

Whicked ways tho. The Hook His flow The beat

Only a album with songs like this and less screaming is the only way he will make me check for him again.

no love for Brainless or Groundhog Day...even Baby?...i feel like those and a few others kind of throwback to old Em..

So Much Better is damn near a Eminem Show throwaway.
