Eminem addresses people trashing his album Revival.
Eminem recently made an appearance on Paul Rosenberg’s SiriusXM podcast as part of the “Curtain Call 2” promo run, and part two of the conversation has been released. The rapper and his longtime manager discuss all the projects that they took songs from for the new compilation album, including the ninth studio effort “Revival” which was trashed by the critics and fans.
“I feel like one of the things that really made me salty, about that whole sh*t was, that I honestly felt like “Castle” and “Arose” probably two of the best songs I’ve written,” said Eminem. “You know how I am super critical about myself and all that sh*t. I felt like man I dumped my f**king heart out and people are literally calling it trash. I guarantee you that at least half of those people didn’t listen to the whole thing.”

The project which was released in late 2017, featured appearances from Beyonce, Ed Sheeran, Kehlani, Alicia Keys, Pink and more. Eminem’s ninth straight number-one album on the US Billboard 200 chart, Revival, debuted with 267,000 album-equivalent units, 197,000 of which were conventional album sales. Eminem made history by being the first one to have eight consecutive entries to make their debut at the top.
