Some of the tracks to grace Curtain Call include "My Name Is," "The Way I Am," "Lose Yourself" and "Stan," as well as some of Em's very own picks.

"I have some songs that a lot of people like," he said in the statement. "I have some songs that only I like. This album is obviously for the 'lot' of people."

According to MTV, Em has been working on the album since summer and is putting the final touches on it as this report surfaces.

Curtain Call is slated for release December 6.

Allright. This means it's not his "best of", it's just a compilation of all his popular singles. Wondering though, how can you be busy for months on a fuckin' compilation which only has two new tracks on it?

[GATMAN]

WHY?  guess his about to retire!

^^ Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton or Bruce Springsteen prolly got about 25 different best ofs out and haven´t retired...

hgow can Dre be busy on a beat for about 20 years? Some people are just slow...and what is a "best of", other than a compilation of someone´s most popular songs??

i hope to jesus this isn't true....it's more pointless than anything else!

hopefully there are some tracks on it that prove his greatness... which I doubt.. sounds to me like he's puttin out all his singles pressed on 1 CD. he should put a cut from infinite there, which he won't. he should put some of his best guest appearances there, which he won't. he shouldnt put anything from encore there, which he won't. he wants me to buy this CD, which I won't.

I guess interscope has to have a new rap release to sell at Christmas time. Em doesn't really have that many hit singles that he could do a "greatest hits" album yet.

Plus, it's just for the masses. Nothing to spark anybody's interest...

Couldn't have really said it any better myself...but of course he's gonna put together something for mass appeal.  Honestly at this point, i could give a fuck if i hear anything more from him.  He's obviously run out of shit to say, and his singles are so predictable and redundant he's no longer interesting.

There's a difference between "Best of" and "Greatest hits". Greatest hits is just what made the artist popular - the stuff that appealed to the mainstream. Best of is really their finest work. In Eminem's case, a Greatest Hits would have Without Me on it, and a Best Of would have songs like 8 Mile. Makes sense, doesn't it?

But anyway, Eminem calls this his "Greatest hits" and he says it's for "the lot", so it will most likely be all poppy songs. In Eminem's case, you can be pretty sure the tracklist will look something like this..

1. New song
2. My name is
3. Guilty conscience
4. Forget about Dre
5. Rock bottom
6. The real Slim Shady
7. Stan
8. The way I am
9. Lose yourself
10.Without me
11.Cleanin' out my closet
12.White America
13.Superman
14.Sing for the moment
15.Business
16.Patiently waiting
17.Just loose it
18.Mosh
19.Mockingbird
20.New song 2

it does theoretically, but in reality "best of"´s are the most popular songs too, because which songs are really the "best" is absolutely subjective and everybody has to decide for themselves....so you can´t make that type of "best of" you´re talking about for everybody...
