EMINEM - THE DEATH OF SLIM SHADY [COUP DE GRACE] (Official Discussion)

--- Quote ---Eminem's New Single Is Already The Longest-Running No. 1 Hit Of His Career
Eminem dominated charts all around the world recently as his new single "Houdini" arrived. Now, the tune is entering its second frame on rankings everywhere, and it is proving to be a fairly sturdy hit-especially across the pond.
"Houdini" holds at No. 1 on the U.K. songs chart. The track debuted in first place on the list last time around, and now it's earned a second stay on the throne.
According to the Official Charts Company, "Houdini" is now Eminem's only hit to spend more than one week at No. 1. The rapper has earned a historically-high number of champions, but for decades, he's been forced to watch all of his smashes be replaced immediately after rising to the peak.
Eminem has sent 11 singles to No. 1 in the U.K. throughout his years as a superstar. "Houdini" added an eleventh win to that tally, and it helped him make history.
With 11 No. 1 singles to his credit, Eminem is now tied for the fifth-most rulers ever among soloists. In the U.K., he's on the same level as Calvin Harris, who racked up his 11 winners much faster than the hip-hop powerhouse.
Elvis Presley claims the most No. 1 hits among all acts in U.K. history, with 21. Cliff Richard and Ed Sheeran are matched with 14 champions. Madonna is just above Harris and Eminem, with 13 No. 1s.
"Houdini" is one of two Eminem hits that are present on the U.K. songs chart this week. "Without Me" rises one space from where it sat last frame, and it lands at No. 37. Last week, that smash returned thanks to all the attention paid to the latest offering from the rapper.

what do you think about Houdini? was it the right single, right beat and right concept to bring slim shady era back?
to me, i find it very succesful and dope, but i still have a feeling that it could be better.

Variety is key, i don't think there's anything wrong with going the nostalgia route. His last couple albums all had that modern sound and started to sound repetitive, so it's cool he went back to his roots. One album like this should be fun. I don't think it's a change he's going to keep forever.
It is very hard to bring back a nostalgic sound yet still make it sound modern enough that today's fans are going to like it. I think he did about the best he could do with it given those circumstances.
