To quote the great Billy Joel:
What's the matter with the clothes I'm wearing?
"Can't you tell that your tie's too wide?"
Maybe I should buy some old tab collars?
"Welcome back to the age of jive.
Where have you been hidin' out lately, honey?
You can't dress trashy till you spend a lot of money."
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me
What's the matter with the car I'm driving?
"Can't you tell that it's out of style?"
Should I get a set of while wall tires?
"Are you gonna cruise the miracle mile?
Nowadays you can't be too sentimental
Your best bet's a true baby blue Continental."
Hot funk, cool punk, even if it's old junk
It's still rock and roll to me
Oh, it doesn't matter what they say in the papers
'Cause it's always been the same old scene.
There's a new band in town
But you can't get the sound from a story in a magazine...
Aimed at your average teen
How about a pair of pink sidewinders
And a bright orange pair of pants?
"You could really be a Beau Brummel baby
If you just give it half a chance.
Don't waste your money on a new set of speakers,
You get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers."
Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me
What's the matter with the crowd I'm seeing?
"Don't you know that they're out of touch?"
Should I try to be a straight `A' student?
"If you are then you think too much.
Don't you know about the new fashion honey?
All you need are looks and a whole lotta money."
It's the next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me
My point here is that it's all "Rock stuff". Hip Hop was founded partly on sampling rock, more importantly hip hop is rock, so it should be no travesty that Eminem has a rock influenced production. If you don't like the music on Em's albums then fine, but don't give too much crdit to hacks like Dre, who has almost no muscial talent. Dre's got a good ear and he knows what melodies to but the rights to and use as his own. That's about it. With ot that Rock Stuff we many have seen a Dr Dre to begin with

Queen sample?? It was just a Kick-Kick-Snare drum pattern...Lots of rap songs have that... I wouldn't consider that a sample.

I'm also looking forward to this, but at the same time I'm not...If it's anything like "D12 World", I'll be hella disappointed...I expect it to be some ill ass shit though...All his albums have impressed me...PeACe
smartass:
eminem will never make a classic album. sslp will always be his best.
