No Relapse 2

[Shadows]

According to Eminems Twitter.


I think this is good. We ARE still expecting an album.

Since his style has been changing recently...I gotta agree with this and hope it's good.


I heard/read somewhere that Em's been told to make his next album to 'appeal to black communities more' because that's what everyone wants.

Can anyone confirm that?

Eminem Scraps The Sequel: New Album, RECOVERY Set For June 22nd Release

Posted by TeamIGA on 4/14/2010 | Comments (5)

SANTA MONICA, CA - April 15, 2010 - The much-anticipated new album from Eminem, Recovery (Aftermath/Interscope), will be released June 22, 2010, it was announced today by Interscope Records. On Recovery, his seventh major label studio album, Eminem has reached out to an exciting list of first-time collaborators, including DJ Khalil, Just Blaze, Jim Jonsin and Boi-1da, among others.

Eminem releases Recovery just over a year after his last album, 2009’s Relapse. Relapse put the cap on an impressive ten years of recorded output, and contributed to Eminem being the biggest selling artist of 2000-2009. In recognition of this, Neilsen SoundScan named him their Artist of the Decade. Relapse entered the charts at #1 and, at nearly double platinum, was the best selling rap album of last year. It also earned Eminem his 11th Grammy award, winning in the Best Rap Album category. Relapse’s first single, “Crack A Bottle” from Eminem, Dr. Dre and 50 Cent, soared to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 (Eminem’s second #1 after 2002’s “Lose Yourself”) and set a SoundScan record at the time of its release for opening week download sales (418,000). The album also spun off two other hits; the Top 10 “We Made You” and Top 20 “Beautiful.”

"I had originally planned for Relapse 2 to come out last year," remarked Eminem. "But as I kept recording and working with new producers, the idea of a sequel to Relapse started to make less and less sense to me, and I wanted to make a completely new album. The music on Recovery came out very different from Relapse, and I think it deserves its own title."

Eminem has sold more than 78,000,000 albums worldwide. After 1999’s quadruple platinum The Slim Shady LP, The Marshall Mathers LP (2000) and The Eminem Show (2002) became two of the Top 5 best selling albums of the 2000s, with approximately 10,000,000 copies of each sold in the U.S. alone. 2004’s Grammy-nominated Encore reached #1 and was certified quadruple platinum. The #1, double platinum, 2005 greatest hits collection Curtain Call: The Hits and #2, platinum, 2006 various artists compilation Eminem Presents: The Re-Up followed.

Yeah. Read it was going to be more emotional tracks to it, unlike Relapse which was just 'rap tracks'

 

[Prize Gotti]

Every time I purchased an Eminem cd, i felt like i had invested in something worth my money. When i purcahsed Relapse, i felt robbed. Eminem needs to go back to his roots.

 

[Casey]

Relapse was complete and utter garbage.

Since his style has been changing recently

His style hasn't changed, he's just rich and comfortable. He tries to write but nothing comes out and he ends up with stupid jokes that aren't funny anymore. This album will be no different.

Like I said last time, he lost some investment money plus his fans (those that remain) won't end his career for him - he needs to hang up the mic himself.

[edit] the production was horrible too

 

[Little Skittle]

Relapse >>>>> Encore. There is nothing out there yet that indicates this will be a let down.

 

[Shadows]

Relapse and Encore were both pretty much shit though.

so... there isn't THAT much hype for me.

If I hear a "just lost it track" or something, i'm gonna just probably not buy it.

 

[SiGh]

If Eminem spits like he did on Drake's Forever track and Lil Wayne's Drop The World...I'll buy his album.

Encore > Relapse. Let me say this: No accent > Weird annoying accent.
And I think that if everyone has low expectations, this album might turn out just great. Hype usually kills average/good albums.

If Eminem spits like he did on Drake's Forever track and Lil Wayne's Drop The World...I'll buy his album.

Definitely. I hope he drops that dumb accent he used throughout Relapse. It was fucking annoying.

 

[Flipmo]

I still think Bagpipes from Baghdad had an epic flow.

 

[linx]

Can't wait for this. We'll see what he comes with.

 

[THEV1LL4N]

hopefully it turns out to be good, but im not so sure of him working with just blaze - rather unusual for a typical eminem song.

 

[Stred]

He needs to collaborate with a few peeps on this album, because lately by himself, he sucks. When he does collaborate with another rapper he seems to blow them out of the water! (besides lil wayne in drop the world).
Sure his flow and creativeness of putting words together is great and unique, but their is no meaning or emotion behind the lyrics, just words.

 

[Da_Funk]

I still think Bagpipes from Baghdad had an epic flow.

That, and Deja Vu, My Mom, Insane, and Careful What you Wish For are all really good tracks.

 

[S O F I]

He says it will be a lot different from Relapse.


FUCK YES.

 

[Mr Marz]

im actually a lil excited about this album... i still have hope lol. i heard that jus blaze is producing like a shit load of tracks on this one.

 

[Flipmo]

I'm interested to see what he has to say about Proof, that whole 'I couldn't write something that could do justice, so I dedicate this album to you' thing is BS. If he's actually taking on a more emotional charged album, I expect to hear something good about Proof.

 

[Tha_Wood]

i liked relapse. it wasnt excellent, but i did enjoy it.

 

[yak pac fatal]

^i agree. i think the voice he used turned off a lot of listeners. i hated it also but then checked out the lyrics, they shit on encore.
