Eminem Retires!

[Eclipse]

Well, not sure how credible MTV is, but they addressed this rumor, and they said Eminem shot down the rumor, it's false...

[Ripper]

thought he was working on a double album coming out later this year. Oh well, either way, true or false, if he is going to release another album like Encore, then he can retire. That was a bad album. I didn't like his second album(not counting the Infinate) or Encore, and if you see all that dumb comedy rap stuff on those two you see why. Eminem Show was his best album to me, because that was just one hell of a Hip Hop album.

Eminem 'The Funeral'- Rumor has it that Eminem's begun preliminary development on a new double disc album to be released late 2005. The double disc album entitled "The Funeral" will feature tracks from all of Eminem's personas including Slim Shady and Marshall Mathers. The album will also include 4 new songs titled "The Funeral - featuring Bizarre", "The Funeral - featuring Dr. Dre", "The Funeral - featuring Obie Trice" and a brand new Dre produced track "Where I'm Standing (In the Game)". Eminem's The Funeral album will "put to rest" all three of Eminem's personas and supposedly clear the way for a new Eminem. "I feel I've reached the point of my career where I need a new 'fuel' to create tracks," Marshall Mathers is quoted as saying when asked about the new album. "So I'm putting all my old shit of the first half of my career on this album and getting ready for a fresh start on my next half." Why are three tracks named the same thing? "I'm not really on any of the tracks named The Funeral. Those tracks just signify the death of each persona." The album will be divided into 3 sections, each divided by one "The Funeral" track. Bizarre will rap about the Slim Shady persona, Dr. Dre will rap about the Marshall Mathers persona, and Obie Trice will rap about the Eminem persona. The last track of the album will be "Where I'm Standing" with a new "reborn" Eminem rapping over the beat. More news and updates on Eminem "The Funeral" to come.

Sounds gay.

 

I don't get why artists feel the need to be "reborn". Unless he is going to become a Country & Western singer, he is still gonna be the same old rapper, rapping about the same old things.

[The Czech Republic]

I don't get it either. Just another one of rap's more ridiculous aspects.

[Carnival]

If it means he'll stop making songs for 8 year olds I'm all for it.
