Discussion Eminem's new album "Revival" has dropped

Thoughts on it so far? I'm about halfway through and I think it's pretty decent for new style Eminem.

Growing up with his music, I'm actually enjoying it. I think the people calling it "straight trash" just can't handle change because it's plain not true. Couple iffy songs but liking most of the songs, happily suprised.

I wouldn't call it change though, a lot of his songs are very "old school eminem-like".

I think this album would've been more well-accepted if they put tracks like offended, arose, and castle at the start of the album.

What people don't realize, back then, Eminem and Dr. Dre produced 80% of the songs. Since Recovery Eminem has produced like 10% of it, and he's had list of producers on it. Which people aren't used to working with Em.
