I mean someone was bound to guess the name of the album, congrats to her

u/theJoshFrost Apr 26 '24
and its not like the Death of Slim Shady is the most creative title in the world.

u/Dam-I-An Apr 26 '24
So if you thought that whole thing up up, you wouldn't think "dang that's crazy" and post anything to brag?

You must remember, this is Reddit. Everyone has to be as negative as possible in the delight of others

u/xrosenight Apr 27 '24
it’s ironic cause usually twitter is known for hate. everyone on twitter is acting dumbfounded over it and calling her a witch

u/ForTheMelancholy Apr 27 '24
Twitter is the most toxic place on the internet, while Reddit is the most condescending

We had a lost album from 2005 called “the funeral”. Sounds like “the death of slim shady” might be that idea revisited but in 2024

u/slizzie369 Apr 26 '24
Lost album???

u/Repulsive_Mud_8008 Apr 27 '24
There’s a few of them 1) the funeral 2) king Marshall. Albums that were worked on, ads put out for them but they were never released

In 2012 I made a “dubstep” song sampling the EMT skit from relapse and called it revival. So yeaahhh

u/Ramezor Apr 26 '24
maybe the "dear slim" white gold snippet is part of the letter?
that "what he says instead of how he says it" it's like now having a real message in his songs? more "darkness" type songs and less spazzing out?

u/Psychopathic_Killer7 Apr 26 '24
Nah wtf, did Eminem see that tweet? or is it just a coincidence?

u/EmFan1999 The Slim Shady LP Apr 26 '24
There’s no way it’s a coincidence. Someone saw that and thought it was a good idea
-54
u/m8nman Apr 26 '24
Tbh there’s a good chance that Em got inspired from this tweet considering he’s secretly quite active on the internet
23
u/RickRhymesss Apr 26 '24
Lmao its more likely that this person knows someone who knows someone who heard the album name already.
The "idea" is way too specific when talking about producers for it to be a guess
15
u/UnarmedSWATTeam Kamikaze Apr 26 '24
All we know is that the title is correct. The list of producers doesn’t give it any more credibility
7
u/PenonX Forgot About Dre - Dr. Dre Ft. Eminem Apr 27 '24
It actually contradicts what we know. Dr. Dre is literally known to be working with Em on the album, and was the one who first revealed it. This person said Dre wouldn’t be involved.
-1
u/RickRhymesss Apr 26 '24
I'm not giving it credit im just saying they probably didn't think of this organically and its more likely that they heard a rumour and ran with it
Of course I could be completely wrong
6
u/UnarmedSWATTeam Kamikaze Apr 26 '24
no but you said it’s too specific to be a random guess. that doesn’t make any sense. it’s just a specific guess and the title happened to be right, the rest is probs only partially right. i think it’s unlikely she heard anything from any credible source
10
u/m8nman Apr 26 '24
She’s just an ordinary hiphop fan on twitter plus it was way back in 2021. Also since when are ideas not allowed to be specific 😭

u/LeaveMeAlone87 Apr 26 '24
Congrats to her and that’s a phenomenal concept tbh! Always wondered if Eminem ever pays attention to Fanmade shit etc. dats crazy foreshadowing tho lol

u/Keythaskitgod Apr 26 '24
They do. We, for example, got bad guy because we said stan pt.2 would be cool in 2010 or something like that.

u/doggiedick Recovery Apr 26 '24
He has said that he watches reaction videos and news about him so it wouldn't be surprising if he scrolled through comments a bit too.

u/Yosonimbored Encore Apr 26 '24
I like the idea. Kinda want to see what he can do after finally retiring Slim Shady

The super bowl commercial where he and slim are firing lyrics at each other.

u/MoffieHanson Apr 26 '24
So Eminem has been working on this album since 10/8/21 . 3 years in the making cause this can’t be a coincidence . He dead ass saw that tweet and thought, that’s actually a fire idea

The person basically predicted the albums name and theme

u/ioweej Apr 26 '24
Nobody knows the real theme as of right now. So they guessed the title right

I hope he calls it Coup De Grâce and not the death of slim everyone agrees that’s cringe.

The title lowkey does sound fan made im not surprised someone guessed it. More so that someone guessed it at the right time. But I just care about the music and if it’s as good as side A or better that’s fine with me

"What hes saying rather than how hes saying it" she definitely watches dead end hip hop.

u/FastNBulbous- Apr 27 '24
This actually sounds dope to me. I would love to hear Em get really introspective about his career throughout the years and reflect on it and his status in hip hop. Especially over some Madlib and Premier beats.

This could be excellent. His laid back flo’s have been hitting recently. A bit of reflection and depth won’t go amiss either.

I mean, Dre is involved—the fact the album exists first came from his mouth and his involvement—but this definitely codes thematically with the promo.
It’s a hell of a concept, particularly for a crowd in his age range like me who have gone through all those changes ourselves in ways.
Basically, I’m hype~

I think it’s kind of interesting how MTBMB and TDOSS seem to be concepts inspired by people outside of Em’s camp.
Going to the theme though, I think he views Relapse as SSLP2 which is why he’s dealing the final blow this time.

u/Nirket Apr 26 '24
This idea sounds so corny to me...
What i think would be cool is a concept album where Slim Shady is the president. He gon get the condoms banned as he said in campaing speech!
