Eminem's novelty wore off for me shortly after the release of Slim Shady.

It's funny Eminem was raised in Detroit and constantly raps about the city, yet everyone here hates him. I get made fun of constantly because he's on my top ten playlist.

I haven't gotten around to downloading/buying the new album yet, but I'm really excited.

A local rock station is actually playing his new stuff, and all this week if I hear them play an Eminem song, and I'm caller ten, I get a pair of tickets to a private pre-release concert. I'm stoked, I hope I win, I got a few days left.

I liked the Slim Shady and Marshall Mathers LPs but I lost interest in him shortly after that album Devil's Night that he did with D-12.

the song "We Made You" is ridiculous hes more pop now than anything, i like his old stuff back from like Marshall Mathers LP and the Eminem Show. things like encore and curtain call were deff not my favorite by all means

So far I'm liking:

1.Insane(Reminds me of old Eminem)

2.Medicine Ball(the background music is really jazzy, I like it)

3.Stay Wide Awake(I like the pulse of the song)

4.Beautiful(I like Eminem's slower stuff)

I do agree that he's borderline pop, I'm not sure if I like it or not. I mean, on it's own I love it, but compared on what he used to do, it's crap.

i must say that beautiful is one of his best songs ever, if not his best. I love this song.

I never liked Eminem.
Dunno why.
I liked him less when he stopped mocking HipHop and began trying to become a part of it.

I'm worried I will be disappointed with this album. I was the last time. I'll still give it a shot!

it's a really good album. I already downloaded it. Definitely has several very good songs on it worth checking out.

Also, bear with it, IMO the first half of the album is worse than the last half. It only gets better as you listen to it.
