It was the biggest hip-hop record that was on some straight traditional gangsta shit. You know it's hip-hop. It's not some "made for top 40 commercial radio playlist with an r&b hook" like Love The Way You Lie or Not Afraid are for Recovery. Basically, BMF is a straight hip-hop song while Love The Way You Lie & Not Afraid are pop songs at hearts that feature rapped verses. If anything this was the album Eminem sold out on or just totally said fuck it and embraced his love for pop music.Lol @ BMF being straight hip hop. Its your typical mainstream song about getting money and materialism with a southern beat and slow lyrics. How is that any less of a sellout song?But, it was hip-hop even if it was a cliche subject mater for the genre. And, as for the beat, it was dope so I'm not quite on the same page with you. Selling out is based on each artist. Rick Ross didn't sell out because he came into the game on this style and it represents him as an artist where as Eminem's general style on Recovery isn't typical for him as an artist. As I said in the other post if he didn't sell out to please Interscope he found his love for pop music.If that's what you intended to mean by sellout then I'd have to agree. But lets not pretend like both songs weren't "made for top 40" commercial hits. Both songs were about as commercialized as you can get.i cant agree they are made for top 40 to the same extent. they are clearly for 2 different markets. you could pick any rick ross song and say that by that logic. i understand what you are saying though, but ross is really for hip hop listeners whereas eminems songs are clearly for the straight up pop listener.
