    It’s on Spotify, Apple Music etc...

    Listening to it now, no huge standout tracks get but I like the overall sound of it.

    It’s no anywhere near his best from what I’ve heard so far. He tries too hard now. Keep it basic with straight rapping and don’t try and fit as many syllables as you can in a bar please Marshall.

    Few decent tracks and it will definitely grow on me but it’s nothing special at all.

    I’m on track 14 and my thoughts are pretty similar. It’ll definitely grow on me too, and I quite like it, but there’s no song that makes you vibe like his previous albums have.

    He looks like he's morphing into Tom Green.

    It’s not a patch on Kamikaze imo. And even that was pretty hit and miss, but songs like The Ringer, Lucky you, Not Alike made it a classic. Not really feeling the same with this.

    It will defo grow on me though.

    Don't think I've listened to one of his albums since Encore. Got bored of him rapping about the same stuff. Will need to go back and give some a bash.

    No listened to albums of his mate since probably his first but just generally for year's now I've found his music pretty pish..

    Commercial and almost no meaning to a lot of it....just rambling..

    After another couple of listens, I’d say this is his worst album by a good bit.

    EDIT: At least Encore and Relapse had his signature sound.

    First two albums were iconic.

    I’d even say the Eminem Show was as well mate. Moved more into mainstream hip hop but still kept that passion and hatred in his lyrics. That’s long gone, now he’s just trying to be the rapper who can fit the most words into a sentence. No substance to his lyrics, and more of a passion for the technicalities of rap instead of storytelling.

    Shame, I thought kamikaze was brilliant as it was like one of those Em albums you could listen from start to finish.

    This one sounds really boring, pretty much no bangers or even stand out tracks .

    Kamikaze started off first class with The Ringer, I thought * me he’s found his mojo again, then it sort of dipped in and out of greatness. But from the first listen I was hooked because of how many * he dissed and his general wordplay and flows.

    This hasn’t really got any of that. Too many features that don’t suit Eminem and too much mega fast bars. * as nothing gets me more excited than an Em album music wise.
