Agreed. I don't see it myself.

TopLads of the forum were saying DAMN was shit at the time that came out. Many have criticised TPAB too.

It took me a while to like DAMN, but I do like it now. There's some interesting **** hanging out in the background of every song I feel like. My introduction to him was TPAB, so I actually had a hard time listening to his stuff from before that, but when GKMC started to click DAMN did too. I still like TPAB the best, I think that album is maybe one of my top twenty or so hip-hop albums, but the other two are growing on me. I think they sound quite a bit alike.

Always had a soft spot for Section.80 as it was released around the time I first started discovering the wider world of Hip Hop, but my love has dampened over the years. I'd still rather listen to it over any of his other albums. But TPAB has his best tracks - even if it's thoroughly boring for the most part.

A) This album is hot garbage. It's ****ing trash. This is Eminem's worst album yet. And no, if Kendrick did this album it would still be trash. It wasn't even Eminem most of the time, it was the lazy ****ing production, the stupid hooks and bland presentation. The best part being the final two songs while the rest sounded like watered down pop music glee club trash.

B) Yes, popularity is a piece of validation for how good an artist is. No, it's not the end all be all absolute proof that an artist is good, but it is a talking point that you guys just don't want to accept because it contradicts your pretentious, self righteous views that you have better music taste or have a more valid musical pallet than the average person. Let me show why popularity is a good talking point for an artists validation. If an artist sucks then their popularity is short lived. Mike Jones was garbage so he died. Paul Wall was garbage. Tons of artists were hot garbage and they ended up losing steam because they couldn't keep people's attention. With Eminem, he's retained popularity through his whole career being praised as one of the best. He's still running off of MMLP fumes. That album was so great that it is still the album we remember him by despite him releasing so many lack luster projects like Encore or Recovery. That is a classic album. It wasn't just some stupid fad that people mindlessly stuck to, it is still as popular today as it was back then. Retaining popularity like that is not easy unless you have something. That album also gets praised by most of hip hop, artists, fans, people that definitely are not casual listeners. Most rappers with that level of popularity is typically recognized or praised by people that are not casual fans of music. We can play the lazy game about people just having terrible taste, but if we want to talk objectively about musical taste what is good or bad taste in music is decided by the masses, not you outcasts. Don't pussy out by pulling this 'my opinion' bull**** like you don't talk as if your opinion is the universally accepted fact. Having good taste is having a taste that appeals to most people. Objectively. Which means that if you're taste isn't in line with the 'normies' (you guys are on some rick and morty bull**** right there, you guys are the annoying rick and morty fans of music) than you have bad taste. So yeah, popularity does matter, people don't gain and retain popularity for no reason, it's not strictly album sales that measure an artists popularity I think you have to be in tune with the general consensus on an artist which would be that Eminem is one of the greatest to ever do it.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.
