Joe Budden podcast discuss Eminem’s “The Death Of Slim Shady”
In the latest episode of Joe Budden Podcast, Joe Budden and the crew discussed Eminem‘s new chart-topping album The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce). You can check out the conversation below:
Parks: I love it man. It feels refreshing to hear the s–t he’s talking about on this album. Like, anti-cancel-culture s–t. All that. It felt good to hear him have fun with the music. It seems like everything since Recovery has been very serious or anthematic, which is cool but I liked the silly s–t.”
Officially Ice: This album made me fully understand, like you said anti-cancel-culture s–t, I look at Em, when he does this, as like rap’s Dave Chappelle, where the real message is Free Speech. I listened to the album in order because I did see his post about this is a conceptual album and listened to it in order and I understand what he meant. It’s Slim Shady getting his s–t off and then it’s Eminem or Marshall or whatever, kind of fighting back. That Guilty Conscience 2 record, really breaks it down. It’s a conversation between Slim and Em. One record and I know y’all gonna kill me, is a record that’s called Temporary. He’s literally talking to his daughter how to proceed when he leaves here. I was driving in a car. I listened to the album, I was on a road trip for two hours, I played it, I had lyrics on the screen and I did cry, no bulls–t. He got audio clips of his daughter when she was little playing throughout the song. He literally said, play this after I die. It sneaks in the album. You are not ready for that record. He really really smoked the album. I look at Em’s career as pre-Recovery and post-Recovery. This is number 2 in his post-Recovery albums. Right after Music To Be Murdered By which is still amazing. A lot of people like that f–ked up comedy style. Even if it’s not politically correct to admit today, you like offensive comedy, you like offensive jokes, we all like it. So when he’s doing it, and anybody could get it, he talked about little people, fat people, deaf people. He talked about everybody in this songs, everybody that you are not supposed to mention. He has brought the R word back. Em really smoked the album. I like its concept and it makes me want to see where he goes next after that. Shouts out to everybody on there. That Jelly Roll record is crazy.
Joe Budden: I’m sorry, y’all talked enough. I will eventually listen to this album but I have not yet. I ain’t even thought about it yet. If I went on a road trip I would have heard it also but maybe my life is litter than you guys is. In my younger years I could not imagine a day where I didn’t run to an Eminem project, excluding him dissing me on Kamikaze album. I know where he stands as an MC. I know what he does. But I didn’t feel that urgency. I don’t care about none of the Slim Shady s–t. I don’t care about Jennifer Aniston or whoever he’s dissing, Nick Storm or whoever he’s dissing. For me, Slim Shady helped me to live and stay alive and deal with depression. Back then, that’s what he did for me. I was never into that funny s–t but he caught one with GUESS WHO’S BACK, BACK AGAIN. I like that one. I’m going to check out the Em album but I felt good that I have outgrown the urgency of having to rush to it.
