    So, as some of you may know, Eminem released his newest studio album today, the Marshall Mathers LP2. I'm aware that he has sparked controversy with his lyrics in the past, so he may not be 'too' popular here, but to any fans of him, I'd recommend giving it a listen, it's actually really good and an interesting throwback to just a bit of his older work.

    So, do you guys love him, or hate him? (Or neutral, of course :slight_smile:)

    Although I haven't listened to the whole album, what I have heard is very Slim-esque. Not that that's bad or anything, I've just kind of warmed up to his new style, and this throwback seems the slightest bit childish.

    It's not like it's offending me or anything, I really don't give a damn about all that; the change is just rubbing me the wrong way. :/

    I really enjoyed most of it. There's a couple of tracks on there that are really deep, and then a couple more that are just silly. It's a good mix and pretty much exactly what I expect from the guy

    Well, anyone got any favorites so far?

    Mine currently is tied between Rap God, and Headlights :slight_smile:

    I LOVE him, like he is my favorite and his music got me through so much.

    That being said...well see how I feel about this. I loved his new style, so if this takes him back to his crazy "Kill You" days I dunno. That being said. I love him

    But I liked Headlights because of its meaning.

    I thought headlines was great as well. It's really interesting to listen to cleaning out my closet and then right after listen to headlines

    Yea, I think the main thing I like about the album is he seems to be going back to things that brought him success and enhancing/remaking them. You get some of his serious more-recent tracks here as well as some of the older 'fucked up' tracks, then you get the stupid ones as well :slight_smile:
