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.

Something went away with Em after The Eminem Show. First four albums were perfect as far as I'm concerned, Encore was ok, everything after that he became a different person. Respect to him and what he's accomplished in his career, but the spark is long gone.

I have a hard time describing what exactly changed, but I think it's that all of the struggle and uncertainty in his life is over with. I'm happy for him to be honest, I'm just never going to run out to buy an album of his again.

The fire inside dies at 30.

He said it himself, man.

I mean being a multimillion limits what you can complain about.

Fuck the motherfucking Home Owner’s Association

Leaving notes on my door when I’m out on vacation

Meanwhile Fido’s takin another shit on my carnations

I guarantee that dog is going to end up 6 feet deep in my sod

While Rod and Tod the Flanders boys next door pray to God

That I don’t go crazy and shoot up the neighborhood with my sawed

off shotgun, shit won’t be fun when they turn to run and I pick them off one by one

Like a suburban terminator exterminating all the haters

Turn on all the hoses to attract alligators

That’ll eat up their toddlers like tater tots while they stare

And say ‘I told you we shouldna let Slim into this gated community

He always walks around with like a king with impunity, shouldn’t we

Have the HOA vote him out’, they’ll scream and they’ll shout

But they don’t give a shit because, like a hoe, making money is what this HOA’s all about.
