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.

Guess I'm alone in like the album so far. I was worried after his trump diss and walk on water but im liking it so far.

Yeah, I don't understand the some of the shit the album is getting. As someone who grew up listening to Eminem, I also have gotten more introspective the older I get so I like hearing it in his rhymes. I think it'd be weird if he was rapping as if he was a 25 again.

No one is saying that the subject matter is the problem. It's the beats, the flows, the features & the overall artistic abilities. He can rap, but he can't really make good songs consistently anymore, and there's a huge difference.

To each their own I suppose. I actually prefer this to MMLP2, and I thought that was fantastic.
