Eminem shared some new information on his upcoming album The Marshall Mathers LP 2 with Rolling Stone. Below is the except from the interview that is set to hit newsstands November 7th. MMLP2 hits stores November 5th.
On his approach to the album:
[‘The Marshall Mathers LP 2’ is] not necessarily a sequel, as much as it is a revisitation. So there’s not gonna be, like, continuations of every old song on there or anything like that. To me, it’s more about the vibe, and it’s more about the nostalgia.
On pressures and process of making the album:
Calling it The Marshall Mathers LP 2, obviously I knew that there might be certain expectations. I wouldn’t want to call it that just for the sake of calling it that. I had to make sure that I had the right songs — and just when you think you got it, you listen and you’re like, ‘F*ck, man! I feel like it needs this or that,’ to paint the whole picture.
