He needs to stop working with Alex Da Kid and Rick Rubin.....And Dre needs to start making beats again.
I bought the album yesterday and have listened to about half of it so far. To me, a lot of it felt very familiar, as if it's a mixture of tracks from Recovery and the MMLP2 with the same or similar themes and choruses.
I have yet to hear a track that makes me think 'this is a banger' and will make me hit the rewind button.
Okay so I was giving Em the benefit of the doubt that he was ahead of the curve on this one and my ears needed to catch up.But with more time I’ve only became less enchanted with the album. So I won’t be attempting to defend this project any more. In fact I’m done listening to it and may put it down permanently the way I did Encore, Relapse, Recovery, I never kept those albums in my rotation. I will defend Em’s career though and just say the guy has already done enough in this game and so anything else get from him since 8 Mile should be taken as icing on the cake.

I also gave it a try but I definitely dont like it at all... even the best songs are average to me.
