Eminem denies retirement rumors

Monday, April 10, 2006
By: Kenny Rodriguez


EminemDespite Eminem’s hiatus from the limelight, on his Sirius Satellite radio station the multi-platinum rapper recently claimed that talk of his retirement has been greatly exaggerated.

“People get it twisted when I said I’m taking a break,” Eminem told Shade 45 host Lil Shawn.

“I never said I’m going to stop doing music. What I meant was that I’m taking a break from being the frontman and the center of attention. I want to fall back for a minute, but I never stop recording. I keep busy.”

Eminem also stated he is currently working on Obie Trice’s sophomore album, Second Round’s On Me, scheduled to hit stores on May 30. In addition, the Shady Records CEO also showed excitement for his newly signed artists, Atlanta’s Bobby Creekwater and West Coast rapper Ca$his. “I feel like we got an all-star team now,” Eminem said

Good lad hopefully he'll take his time and release another classic solo album when the time is right.

I aint gonna hate, eminem rap skills are tight. I just think he got a bigger push in this industry because he was a blond hair blue-eyed white boy. There are many other talented em cees that never got the push he did. Thats what bothers me. It aint em's fault, he just did him. I'm more mad at the system for continually doing this. Thats why i called eminem captain america. He's the symbol america wants to stay on top. Take it or leave it. (last comment on this from me)

I said it best in one of my mix tape songs, i said and i quote, "why is the best rapper white, and the best golfer black" reffering to eminem, and tiger woods, when it should be the other way around, the best golfer should be white, and the best rapper should be black, but that song is like 3 years old, when slim shady was on top of his game, i really hope he makes a strong comeback, his last ablum sucked.

I think em is great lyricist, but i think he get too much props, there was a lot of white mcees that was nice but didn't get any props. Black people need to support other black artist, word! stop buying bootleg cd"s. Eminem sold mad records cause white people going out there and support him to the fullest, that's why duke sold so much records. Em sold about 60 million records worldwide. And he came out a few years ago. So we need support other black artist in this game.

^^straight.....and i have to agree...... "i just think he got a bigger push in this industry because he was a blond hair blue-eyed white boy." true. And your right about the way the system pushes out whatever it deems "worthy"....it's bullsh*t.....(your time on the matter was appreciated.....1
Posted by Spiltmilk
Eric i repect your opinion on that but i believe that the best "anything" is just gonna be a person who just flat out proves their worth in their feild. I try my best to look at things how they are....just like a few years ago err'body thought the dc sniper was a white cat. I wouldnt care if your purple, if you got it you got it. And don carlo....who in the hell you have in mynd when you said "alot of white emcees that was nice but didnt get any props" ??? wtf??? i understand that opinion, i can understand one or two....but "alot" dayem. Maybe you just aint feeling em. Lol.....that boy could have pink hair...it aint got nuffin to do with whats coming thru those speakers. Lol. Jus my opinion.

The kid em can definitely rap no doubt about it and much props to him and the shady records family. In my own words i believe the best rapper of all time and most selling (this is a fact) is tupac "amaru" shakur period.

Some more.. Lps and cds. .. Yeah he got it. ..

There some people on this message board saying that em was really pushed by the "system" because of his "blonde hair and blue eyes" and i have to say that is bullsh*t. Look at bubba sparx dogg, paul wall, who only collectively sold approximately 1.5 million records. I guess the system didnt recognize that these cats were white? no, if your talented, and got a story that everyone wants to hear, marketable, hardworking, etc., your going to sell records regardless. Look at 50 cent. My man is as black as they come yet he sold over 10 million records on his first album which exceeded eminems first album sales of 3 million. You can say the same thing for 2pac, etc. So really there is no "system."

I'm gonna take a leap and say the system pushes em because em sells. He doesn't sell becaused he's pushed. A lot of other rappers are pushed and suck and don't sell. And i'm not an em fan. He got some good sh*t and he got some bad sh*t. But his color is probably more of an advantage than a disadvantage. His core audience, rich white kids with $ to buy cds, can identify more readily even if only on that basic level. And apparently he got enough skillz to make up the rest.

Ems probaly not going to make any more albums he probaly will just produce

Em's talent is undeniable. Wudn't mind him spitting some more sh*t provided it is more reminiscent of his earlier days and is a greater improvement on encore

Wife is gone. Your main man "proof" is gone. Em definately might retire now. R.i.p. Proof
Posted by Sair
On another note,i heard that proof, from d12 was shot and killed early this morining, april 11th, if this is true, all i can say is what a traggic lost, r.i.p proof.
Posted by Eric young Infinite
Em needs to stop making records about his daughter and start ripping the mic, thats what made the slim shady lp so great.
Posted by geezus16
R.i.p to proof...... Em,show proof u care by spittin top notcheslike u used to...
Posted by proofllives4ever
If u listen to any of ems 1st 3 cds u will see that em knows he was pushed b/c of his color in a black dominated genre. And u can't blame him for that. The 1st selling white rapper was a gemic. U know who i'm talkin about. Which if nothing else would work to his disadvantage in the eyes of true hip hop heads. But he took what was given to him, and spit the truth. And nothing but. And that sh*t sold. He hasn't changed his formula since day 1. He still puts out that 1st pop gemic single, then spits the truth. Its just that the truth he spits now is less interesting than b4. And that consitutes directly to his life style. He has lyirical ability in him, no doubt. But i can't sit back and listen to another encore or curtain call.

What ya'll think.....with all these recent events......em gon end up droppin sumthin.....not no sirius shade 45 stuff.....some serious eminem circa 2000.....back when was da man.....
Posted by AMP1986
Naah, i expect him to be on some godfather 3 tip. When everything around al was cumbling, and he said that famous line "everytime i try to leave they keep pulling me back in"....i thought ems story was sad to begin with, wanting to kill his babys mama (not like i dont have those thought my dayem self j/k)...but his story went from comedy, to sad, to horror story.. Its gonna be a alll out pity party.

Posted by samantha
Eminem is the best rapper. He really needs to come back and get rid of these other phony rappers like lil weiner and such and such. And for all the people saying eminem is horriblee . Listen to him really listen and understand . Eminem is awesome and eminem has great talent, for all the people who commented that said other people have better talent. Yes his looks make him unique but his talent got him into the industry. Eminem has awesome talent and what he can do with his rhymes and feelings and for him to be up on the top and him being a white guy in a blacks mans industry. I hate when people discriminate against him cause he is white. Get over it ; eminem has great talent weather he is white, black, pink, blue etc. I love you em. Make a come back
