Eminem Retires

[CanaBliss]

Well it's final...you can look it up...

Eminem (a.k.a. Slimshady) is retiring.

For all his loyal to death fans, his farewell song is When I'm Gone. It won't be on CD, he is unlabeling on the night before this x-mas.



Farewell Shady!

[BobBong]

It was a good run i guess... and he's made his imprint on the rap community..

Cheers to the M&M

[Whos Carl]

I cant find any evidence of it.

[buddymyfriend]

Awwww, far well Slim!

Bet he sits back on his ass collecting the dollaz earnt from Fifty!

Peace

Buddy

[robert42]

HAHAHA YES

YES

YESSSSSSSSSSSS

[3 Sheets To The Wind]

Goodbye..

I used to like him :p a bit.

[Whos Carl]

I believe I smell bullshit. BBC news has nothing on it nor does google news or his website.

[AcidFreak]

I used to hate him just because he was Eminem, but then I stopped being a narrowminded fuck and actually LISTENED to his music. He's got some really, really good songs. 'Stan', 'Kill You', 'The Way I Am', etc, all come to mind.

[Whos Carl]

SO was I right its bullshit?

[Nochowderforyou]

Nope, Doesn't appear to be bullshit to me. I did a Google search and I got tons of sites claiming that he is retiring. Here is a link:

I'm glad he is. The only album I like of his is his very first one, despite "my name is" ugh! It is such a hardcore lyric album and it makes me laugh what he raps about.

His new crap, I think he is just retiring before he completly fails with a next album. Hopefully 50cent will kill himself now.

Aw, that sucks. He does have a little girl to raise tho and he's most likely a multimillionair, if not billions.

That's not childish? Guys in their 30's, painting up their faces acting like crazy clowns? I see childish.

[Maui Wowie]

Hahaha, only one word for that.
PWNED

[blastfast]

Who gives a fuck, eminem stopped being anything near resembling a hip-hop artist years ago, he's a franchise, a corporation...a money making machine.

[MudFu]

I never really liked Eminem or rap much but their were a few songs I liked. Kim, and The Way I Am mostly. But his last album was a bust...he basicly wrote shit and make it into a rap song...but it still went big...so what does that tell you...people are either stupid or he is really an icon.

It's not bull that he's retiring. He was planning on it for a while. Much Music and MTV both had programs on about it a little bit back.

I won't lable eminem a coorparation...He isn't really. P. Diddy is a coorparation. And eminem and diddy are nothing a like as far as I see.

[Ms420]

Despite what anyone says about him I liked Eminem and his music. I think its great he wants to raise his little girl but I would like to see him on tv or something (in person would be better but y'know) Also I think its kinda cool both our daughters have the same name and me and him have the same birthday-10/17

[emg]

well, it's good that Em is retiring. he said 4 years ago, once he starts putting out crap, he's gonna retire. def, his last album was his poorest. it's all good though, he got shadyrecords to run.

[hipEstoner]

=P
yes, i to like icp and eminem

[flamingskullballs]

i dont have the taste for eminem, or icp...

[lemonboy]

"Oh the Jedi's are going to feel this one." -Professor Farnsworth

To be completely serious though, I could give a lesser rip. Having actually heard him speak for real and read some of his letters to people that are published in various places, I can safely say that he is an ignorant piece of white trash who contributes absolutely nothing of value to society. GIGO

That is all.

[Mello.as.Hello]

Alot of rappers retire from recording- but Eminem is part of a HUGE rap corporation. He's just gonna be the next Puff Daddy.

Trust me.

[KoRnStaR]

It's a real song, have yet to listen to it but I can't wait to hear it.

RIP to a rap legend,if he's really dying from the rap game..

[J4ay20]

how are yall gonna hate on a legend. this guy gave a chance to every white rapper out there and he revolutionized rap.

job well done em
job well done

peace out to em

Reports: Eminem's Weary Of Fame, 'Encore' Is Last Album
By Nolan Strong
Date: 7/15/2005 3:19 pm




Eminem, born Marshall Mathers, is reportedly hanging up the microphone.

The Detroit Free Press reported that Matherâ??s latest album Encore will be his last release. Insiders told the paper that the rapper has been planning on retiring to concentrate on production and other ventures.

Eminemâ??s manager Paul Rosenberg told the paper that Encore was â??certainly the cap on this part of his careerâ?� and that decision to retire was held off by the retirement of fellow Hip-Hop superstar, Jay-Z.

â??He didn't want to seem like one of those guys who's playing a trick on his fans, or playing with their heads," Rosenberg told The Detroit Free Press. "It's part of the same struggle he goes through in his music -- 'How much of my inner thinking should I be putting out there?'â?�

Rosenberg also stated he was surprised no one caught on to the possibility of Eminem retiring, due to numerous clues on the Encore album. An insider also stated that Eminem has grown weary of the spotlight and was struggling writing as â??Eminem.â?�

â??Em has definitely gotten to the level where he feels like he's accomplished everything he can accomplish in rap," D-12 member Proof added. "He wants to kick back and get into the producing thing."

Insiders said Eminemâ??s inner-circle of friends knew in advance that Encore would be the best-selling rapper of all timeâ??s last album.

Eminem is not doing interviews this summer and representatives for Eminem did not comment as of press-time.

hahahah it's the kids that think KISS is old fart music but still want to paint their faces and act like clowns.

[Juggalotus17]

ICP painting their face up like clowns and rapping childish? Ever listen to their lyrics?? Not very childish at all. Not just in the wicked lyrics aspect, but they have many other aspects they rap about and many good hidden meanings in their music. Learn about something before you go babbling shit out of your mouth about it.

Dude, ICP is the lamest shit around.

Yes, they have childish lyrics, I use to listen to them.

But hey -- it's cool, you're a Juggalo, no worries..

[Juggalotus17]

I respect your opinion as your entitled to it, but calling it childish isn't justified.

[chakruh]

Shit, I really should've fell but I stood
See I came like a flame in the night
Like a ghost in the dark,
there's a ray,
there's a light
There's a hope
there's a spark



My lyrical content contains subject matter
That sucks up all these fucked up young kids
At an alarmin' rate, common denominate
Add it up and you'll see thats why I dominate
I try to stimulate but kids emulate
And mimmick ever move you make
"Slim you're great"
But wait, can't you see im only here to entertain?
I gotta be the one to go against the grain
Cuz man, I see it, feel it, live it
But its inhumane for me to see you be influenced
And pretend you ain't
But they don't understand that i've been through pain
If you get to know me I can be a friend you gain
But you can't just stand there and try to touch
It hurts but your jealousy probably tears you up inside as much
And its such a pleasure every button that I touch
I treasure every glutton that I punish in my lust


mmmm...

[heatherhatesyou]

he'll be back. he's just gonna take a break to produce, then come out with an over-hyped mediocre album in 5 years.

i liked everything from infinite to 8 mile, but that encore shit....goddamn.

[heatherhatesyou]

But you can't just stand there and try to judge
It hurts but your jealousy probably tears you up inside as much
And its such a pleasure every button that I touch
I treasure every glutton that I punish in my lust

stimulate has to be my favorite eminem song of all time, and this lyric...wow...so fucking good.

sorry it's just that not many people know this song and it's so fucking trippy sounding and just...great.

ok... what does it mean then?

I've listened to ICP.. there were maybe one.. two songs tops that mildly peaked my interest.. i just found the lyrical attempts at being whitty and the sound of the dudes voice uncomfortably painful after a while...I'll stick to love music thanks..
John Lennon > ICP anyday :pimp:

[Garden Knowm]

he'll be back!!!!!!!

you can count on it!!!!!!!!

[jahjahjahjah]

im down with the motha fucking clown.

[ADaisyChain]

If he ends up as good a producer as dre is, he probably won't be back. He'll probably show up in some rap songs for nobodies though to help make them famous, which will work because people know he won't be coming out with any new stuff and he's got a huge fanbase who want to hear any stuff he's in.

I think there's a strong possibility he's just retiring from rapping because he can make even more money, easier. Who knows though, I'm not in his brain.

If his producing flops ((which it hasn't so far)) than expect him to be back 'in da game' as soon as his cash flow get's low.
