I'm already moving on and waiting for the R&R Hall of fame, I just want him to be over with this scam. I also invite to all newbies and lurkers to join the board also when we're praising him and supporting the hell out of him, I didn't see the same enthusiasm when he was inducted to the Hall of fame or when he performed at the SB. It seems to me the SOME of you wanna make us look like we're evil people and bad fans tearing him down. Just because we don't agree and like some of his decisions business wise.
He's got one of the biggest hardcore fanbase spanning from more than 20 years and has been supporting him in the ups and downs (which were a lot let's be honest) throughout his entire career, but when let's say 90 % of that fanbase feels cheated and that something fishy is going on .... well man you are gonna have to face the situation and reevaluate your moves.
I don't feel like he owes us anything I'm not a 15 year old teenager who gets upset because I can't see him in a daily basis and I understand this is all a business and there are risky moves as always so I guess he and his team are also aware of the consequences things like these may have on his legacy and brand.

It happens ALL the time especially when anyone questions his team or suggests Em isnβt happy or maybe shouldnβt be doing soemthjng and they always contradict themselves everytime and then make multiple accounts I'm his third favorite security guard's brother's cousin's sister's neighbor's uber driver's best friend and I'm here to condescend to you and let you know everything you think is wrong but in no way will I explain what's actually going on because I'm too cool for this fan board I post on regularly. SO THERE. oh and you forgot the part when we'll find out one day they were right all along.... right about what? you didn't say anything

Well, the alleged insiders and not-suspicious-at-all new accounts that came to take shots at fans might want to check out the overwhelmingly negative reviews coming in for the performance. Some words I've seen used to describe it are "nightmare", "advertisement", and "charmless dystopian commercial". Daily Beast said they should have been arrested. It's not us being perpetually dissatisfied fans. This NFT shit is a bad business. Honestly I hope they do make money off it considering Em spent $462,000 on a twitter avatar and they've been dumping money into BAYC for a year, but GOD DAMN they don't know how to promote. Like when Lil Nas X did Industry Baby at the VMAs everything on the whole set said "Montero" on it but you walked away knowing that for the future while thinking about LNX and Jack Harlow. This you walk away thinking what's with the weed monkeys. I wish they would have promoted CC2 and done a greatest hits mash-up and included From the D to the LBC with some ape stuff thrown in like an Easter Egg. To be clear, I LOVE EM's MUSIC, and the glimpses I've seen that seem like Real Marshall make me think I like him too (though it could be all fake branding shit). What fans are asking for isn't unreasonable, we don't want his soul ffs, we want music--even old music--on its own terms, not a jingle for crypto. There's a difference between promoting music/sponsorships/brands using performance and straight up selling a product like Diet Coke or Jenny Craig. I get what you are saying sparrow, but that same Daily Beast article also says "how deeply unserious and unnecessary Eminem is in our current music landscape. Any semblance of talent and gravitas is completely gone!" So, some of this press has to be taken with a grain of salt because for some reason I've noticed some factions of the media are not a huge fan of Marshall, especially ones who are younger Millennials and Gen-Z.

I didn't notice that part, yeah, I definitely don't agree with that. However, in general I still think the overall consensus is that it was a lackluster VMAs and the Bored Ape ad wasn't a stand-out performance. I wasn't expecting something at the level of the Superbowl BUT I think Em and Snoop performing together at the VMAs for the first time in 20 years should be at least as entertaining as LTWYL with Rihanna. Like, saying the NFTs were a great idea and everyone approved and fans loved it...they still were barely on stage. Who thought that was a good idea???

Literally the VMAs. It's been 60 seconds so I'm going back to Detroit now.

Didn't seem like there would be anything for him to do. I was wondering why we didn't see social media posts of his band rehearsing leading up to this but this wasn't a performance proper. Also notice that Tracy has not been with him recently at things. Seems like we would have definitely seen her in that big entourage. We saw Paul. But that was a no-brainer since he lives in New Jersey. Denaun went along when they premiered the video in New York, maybe he had something else and he coudn't go. "Backpack" man was there ( poor guy, his back must hurt after carrying that huge backpack everywhere) I think he's his main assistant now, maybe Tracy couldn't be there or she's taken a more "business" type of role.

Who thought that was a good idea??? yeah, that was not even a good idea or smooth transition because the audience could see Marshall walking off the age starting to rap to the song so I am sure the audience were like "Where you going dude?" This NFT promo campaign was not a good idea and I am sure they realize it but are in a contract. Hopefully they have completed their contractual obligations for it. I don't even think Snoop looked happy.
