god i was such a cringy teenager
The Slim Shady LP is still a fun album. I used to get really stoned and listen to it, trying to draw comics of the scenarios in songs like As The World Turns, Brain Damage, and My Fault. Eminem was a pretty good story teller back then.
Shame that the poor reception to his Revival album mentally broke him. I don't think he ever thought the day would come he would ever get negative criticism on such a wide scale and it delivered an entire system shock and he's still not over it.
 
chocolate starfish and the hotdog flavored water is still pretty good too
I still listen to My Generation and Boiler regularly, but overall I think that album is a bit over-produced. Everything sounds too polished. I have the same issue with Slipknot's Iowa album and whatever Korn put out around the same time (Issues, I think).

Slim Shady LP and Marshal Mathers LP are both still great. I like The Eminem Show but that was when the cracks first started to show that he was buying into his own hype, I think.

There's a lot of gems in the Eminem Show but I see what you mean. There was a point where Eminem went from just rapping about his personal struggles and life and it was engaging and entertaining and could be considered relatable, but around the Eminem Show and especially around the time 50 Cent was coming around you got the hardcore gangsta wigger persona which, in lack of a better term, flanderized him. He was always a wigger, but around the time he started wearing doo rags and shit just made him look like a parody character.

I think the other problem with this was that by the time The Eminem Show came out he was a millionaire, probably several times over, so rapping about food stamps and struggling to raise yo kids n sheeit rang a little hollow.

On Slim Shady LP songs like Rock Bottom and Brain Damage really hit the mark because it was still 50:50 if he'd be going back to that life or not and that frustration came across in his performance.
 
I'm opening myself up to a LOT of ridicule here, but Mariah Carey. I might have just been a thirsty teenager lusting after a 20 something woman or some hopeless romantic high on his own naivete. I might have just been a contrarian because I wasn't going to give in to ridicule. I can not explain it, but it was what it was.
I dont think she is that bad. I mean atleast its not "Rihanna". That stuff gave me nightmares when it was on the radio all the time, it drove me nuts (Thankfully thats in the past, but.. i will never forget the horrors of). "When i was a booooy" or "Umbrella". Best way i could drown it was listening to a Norwegian satire version of that song.

80-90% of the thrash and death metal I used to listen to. Looking back, a lot of it was either 2edgy4you or half baked political ideas like "government sucks".

Edgy stuff huh. I think most funny elements of that is. When someone tries to be edgy but has to raise a kid or something. Usually edge cred go down there. Or there was the one parody by AOK called "Edgelord" which is also good
 
I was majorly into hip hop as a teenager, but very little of it has survived into my adult listening habits.
at one time i tried to get into some old school hip hop/rap, and at firs ti thought it was okay, but that didnt last long before i realized that it is all trash just like newer rap is. there is no golden era of good rap.
Funnily enough when I first got into hip hop I loved modern stuff and thought 'golden age' hip hop was unlistenable. Now I pretty much only listen to old school (i.e. 80s) stuff, not to to say that it's Beethoven but it at least had a sense of fun and was danceable, not like today's shit.

When I was in college in the 90s, I thought 70s stoner tunes were deep. Now I see them for the egotism, emptiness, cynicism and nihilism that they lionize.

Fast rappers- I used to think that rapping fast=good, but now I find it so corny.
Similar but with "intellectual rappers". They're also, at best, half-baked ideas that only seem smart compared to the drugs, hoes, money-type rappers. At worst, you get "Did the inventor of college go to college?"

Right. Most people's edgy phase ends once they either raise a kid, get married, or get a non deadend job.
 
Most anything post-generation 2 kpop. It was a mixture of things that happened. The group I liked the most disbanded, the emerging issue of looking and sounding the same happened (WJSN, BTS, and TWICE are the biggest offenders), and hearing how idols were treated behind the scenes didn't sit well with me. There's some generation four songs I like, but other than that, it all started to really blend together, and it become so corporate and samey. Sometimes I will listen to Wonder Girls, g.o.d, and Baby V.O.X, but it's eh.
 
I can’t believe 13 year old me actually liked Blood on the Dancefloor. It was so edgy and one of the band members turned out to be a nonce (pretty obvious in hindsight tbh lmao). Literally unlistenable.

 
Slipknot. Great for helping edgy 2000s teenagers piss off teachers, parents and clergy, but good lord they were mediocre musicians. Except for the drummer, he was pretty good.

Anyways, now that their music isn't transgressive anymore it takes like 95% of the fun out of it and leaves the music videos cringy as fuck.
 
Used to be a huge fan of death grips. Listened to them too much, scared the hoes away, and now i dont like their stuff anymore.
TOO MANY HOES IN MY MOTHERFUCKING MEAL

More on-topic: Megadeth. They started shilling NFTs. 'nuff said.
