It HAS been 11 years. I’m just now thinking about that.
But can you really blame him? I can tell you that if I made record selling history off talking about certain shit, I’d be talking about it well into my nineties.

Exactly. His subject matter is terrible…honestly i don’t even know when im supposed to play his music. Anyway, I do want to hear Recovery…hopefully it will be good. I just think the Em vs Jay argument (when it comes to catalog) isnt fair. I dont see how anyone who really listens to music can say Em has the better catalog. I just don’t.
“When Guru stopped drinking, when he decided to stop drinking, he stopped drinking. Solar drinks Corona [beers] every [FONT=Helvetica]s[FONT=Arial]ingle[/FONT][/FONT] day. Solar would send Guru to the store to buy his Coronas for him…”
“He and Fat Joewere always really close, back in the day, and that was one of the people I know he thought about reaching out to. I can’t say that he ever did, out of fear that Solar wouldn’t agree with it, and Solar would find a reason not to, and it would become a problem again.”
I read that article… an re-read it. Im sorry I just don’t see how a guy has that much PERSONAL control over another MAN whom knows more than you. Ill stick to my guns on that behind close doors tip cause I just don’t see how one controls the other outside of a business venture. You cant interact with anyone else unless solar is around??? you can do interviews unless solar is around??? you can leave the city unless solar is with you???
now that sounds like thuggin love[/boondocks]
are we really talking about em being too poor to afford a list producers tho? em?? like really? EMINEM???
quick thoughts:
-jay has the better catalog, clearly.
-em is better lyrically and has a better flow IMHO.
-blueprint was the peak of jay’s career IMHO. i haven’t felt anything after the black album.
-mmlp was the peak of em’s career IMO (album wise)…i liked the em show but its not a classic IMO and isn’t fucking with em’s first two albums.
em is back. yessss.
jay, not so much.
waka flocka…smh. i wish rappers would stop with the Christmas ornaments on their chains. shit looks like it belongs on a tree. plies’ goon affiliate hat (and handcuff bracelet), cam’s stoplight chain, and a few others immediately come to mind.
Chains are wack period.
cancels Roger Rabbit platinum chain
I got a question. What the hell happened to Yung Joc? You figure with Gucci being in jail this ninja would regain his crown of rappers that make you go :wtf:.
milk carton
Was Young Joc supposed to be around for the long haul?
PS- Koop old school avs are too much
I’m sure by now yall have seen the dude rocking an iPad as a chain (Only in the A…and in Lennox Mall of ALL PLACES…Will never go back there again)
yeah he was suppose to be in it for the long haul… this was young milk carton joc… dance raves… he had it on lock… u cant down the guy if you aint heard his mixtapes[/dat srk sarcasm]
an appreciate the love the throwbacks… tryin to get a hold of my boy to get that unfinished excitebike roll cancel avatar
ahhhh lennox mall…yeah that place… yeah. i would leave that place be.
Lenox mall might be the “gay” mall but, if you live in atl its pretty much the best mall to shop from next to Northpoint. Cant say i blame you for never wanting to go back again though lol.
LOL, it was how the whole situation played out…Funny as hell now, but when it was happening we (Koop and myself) were really asking ourselves WTF in the middle of the mall
Not really. Just trying to get make myself laugh before you hear about me on Channel 4 news. :bluu:
Guess how many songs Dr Dre produced on Eminem’s best albums? 11…11 of about 60+ songs
So if that constitutes “all” then I’m pretty sure you might want to invest in a TI82 or something bro
End of topic here…I don’t know why there was anything said after this…like honestly.
You don’t throw non-music money into making music unless your a starving artist. With that said…a) neither of these guys are starving and b) Eminem has made 10 fold more money off music INCLDUING RECORD LABEL MONEY AND ROYALTIES than Jay. Hov’s money has come from side deals, excluing his most recent contract which is essentially a high level 360 deal.
No one disputes Em’s abilities, his catalog just isn’t ‘serious’ enough to really touch Jay’s, the difference in approach is too strong for even a real comparison
I still don’t get why people act like Infinite was a good album. I was one of the thirty people actually bumping Eminem before he got signed to Aftermath…and even back then I said ‘fuck this Infinite shit’ IMO Eminem only has ONE certified classic album - the MMLP. Thats it, the SSLP/EP was a GREAT fucking album, but not ‘that’ level. Hov can match it and throw dditional classic albums at it…and its all because of subject matter and productionstyling…not money to throw at folks. Lest we forget, Em’s had at least one album if not two, that by themselves have outsold Jay’s ENTIRE CATALOG…that dude don’t need money

You must be talking about Angie Goff. :lol: Yeah she would catch it like the Swine Flu. I also look at channel 5 and Julie Wright. She is thick like that welfare peanut butter; the kind you have to stick in the oven just to get it soft. :lovin:
I really need some new music. I actually brouhgt Blueprint 3…:wasted: Is that Kool Kids worth a buy?
yeah buddy… angie goff… that asian persuasion can get it right… love 1080 HD in 240 refresh rate…
julie wright got chunky over the years (post kid i take it)… she cute in the face but when they pan out u can see she been throwing back a few too many eddie leonards steak an cheeses or 5 wings an fried rice
u dont need new music…u need to do what im doing. revisiting the past and find gems you missed from teh past
i had a long ass post but i closed my browser like a dummy and apparently didn’t post it so i’ll just cliffnote it…
jay-z is like karl malone, yeah he has the scoring and rebound (i think) records…but who wouldn’t if they played for 21 seasons? i guess in this analogy of power forwards eminem would be tim duncan.
WTF that was MY IDEA grrr…right after I bought mine and was getting the Inivza shield put on I was like “Yo I should turn my iPad into a chain yo…lkike thisputs iPad box in the middle of chest and pretneds like its swaying”
