If Eminem released an album with 90s beats...

[Dusty B]

like Don't Front, Infinite vibes but of course made today with modern mixing. Would it change hip hop or just be another Em album that does ok?

 

[Iron Keys]

I think it would pull only the niche and ultrafans.

I do believe a change and shift is due. Dunno how or what.
The concerning thing is today's obsession with being clones; when there was less social media and Internet, there were more locations for different things to emerge. But now we're one global community everyone is just copying the one same thing.

 

[Iron Keys]

You would be surprised how many youngers actually like older style beats and stuff tho. And I mean modern youngsters, those into their trap and drill.

There's definitely an angle for it to work. But people are still obsessed with the mumbly tattoo faced moody unintelligent teenage princess vibes from their male rappers.

 

[Fade]

I agree with @Iron Keys. It would definitely attract the older heads but of course that fact that he has so many fans it would attract a lot of attention. I can see fans thinking this is some new style of music lol.

But yeah there needs to be some sort of shift because there are too many clones for sure and that's why so much sounds the same. It's boring but also tiring.

I vote for bringing back the funny rappers and also New Jack Swing!

I 100% support this

Also very surprised (if not joke) that you want em to bring back New Jack Swing (..ahem Beat This theme... ahem...)

R&B @Fade @Iron Keys could definitely use some New Jack Swing as I can't take the nasal/breathy female non singers dealing in vibes only to make up for lack of vocal talent on some "I'ma fuck someone else 'cause my old dude got a new bitch" energy which is just as lame as the new singer dudes on the "failed rapper" vibe masquerading as R&B.

[OGBama]

New Jack Swing @Dusty B sounds like



start with Teddy Riley, groups like Guy, Basic Black, Today, solo acts like Samuelle, Jeff Redd, etc.

Example of New Jack Swing - Motownphilly

I was never a big Eminem fan, but there are some good recent(ish) examples of newer tracks that use old school beats.

Hail Mary Mallon has two that I can think of:

Jack is what Fade calls his Johnson. And you are someome new who swings from it.
