It’s been a minute—well, five years actually, since we’ve heard from Marshall. But on May 19, that’s scheduled to change with the release of his fifth solo album, Relapse. Truthfully, Em has big zapatos to fill. And to ensure customer satisfaction is guaranteed, the homie broken cool added his 2 cents to see that it’s met.
NO AKON…IN FACT FEW GUESTS IF ANY
Each night before I go to sleep I say a prayer and it goes like this:
God, I know Eminem jumped on Akon’s “Smack That” and tore it
up…but I PRAY that he was paid for this guest spot and it wasn’t one
of those “you appear on my song, I’ll appear on yours” deals. Please
keep “Relapse” free of any Africans who aspire to do Country music. Thank you.
Seriously though, I REALLY hope the Pop&B world didn’t get into
Shady’s ear and convince him to let them on what should be 2009’s best
album (and yes I said SHOULD). Going further, I hope the album is
relatively free of guests. I’m fine with D-12 and Bobby Creekwater
(although I would have preferred Stat Quo)…and of course Dr. Dre,
Snoop Dogg and 50 are always welcome, but please keep the hordes of
guests away…and Ca$his…please keep Ca$his away too…but there is
one exception on the guests issue…keep reading…
That Mac Miller and Sean Price collab is an absolute heater! "Pet Sounds" showcases that raw, lyrical talent we all miss. It’s a somber reminder of what the game lost. On a different note, while the song title is a play on words, it’s a good reminder for owners to stay vigilant about health. If you have an older companion at home, remember that CKD in pets is serious. Keep an eye on their hydration and energy—early detection is everything. Great track, rest in power to the legends.
