"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

The album leaked earlier online today...what do you guys think?

I think he's lost quite a bit of his touch. He is rapping with his annoying "We Made You" voice on 1/3 of the tracks on the album...if it weren't for the top notch production, those songs would have been 100% garbage. Though there are a few really hot songs are there.

Notable songs on the cd are:

"Stay Wide Awake"

"Deja Vu"

"Beautiful"

and "Underground/Ken Keniff"

I'd give the album a 6.8/10.

Overall, i thought it was a decent album, better than most rap out there these days, i'll pick it up for my library when it drops May 19th.

His first 3 albums were a lot better. Anyone else take a listen yet?...luckily he's dropping a second Relapse album later this year...maybe that will have some hot songs on there as well.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Based off the two or three songs I've heard, I don't think much of it.

Yeah, Em took a step back with his first single, but it still sounded better than hearing another Wayne/Soulja Boy song.

I've been listening to some of his older stuff lately and forgot how good it really was. Can't wait to hear the new album
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Listened to the new album... it is not very good

Underground is classic eminem and good
Made you, Crack a bottle, the two feature singles are pretty good

I can see why Nick Cannon is getting pissed about the Bagpipes song

Nick Canon is a nobody who's trying to get as much as attention as he can.

Just checked it out today...not impressed at all.

He's 36 and still talking about killing ho's,dismembering family members, stepfather-son incest and ken kaniff. And of course his druggie mom.

Basically same old sh1t that made him famous, except now he can't pull it off anymore.

Beats suck too.
3/10.

You guys really need to move on to Metal :rockon:

I'm not talking about that chump Nu-metal s*** either, that's for 14 year-olds.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Tool isn't metal.
I can't say they don't have a little metal in them. I've tried to get into them but there just too damn alternative for me. I prefer power/speed metal, thrash, some death/black, progressive, and other varieties.

Metal makes rap seem childish to me. Not many rappers do anything different, making the entire scene bland as all hell nowadays. Old school hip hop and old rap prove far more interesting than the crap these morons spew today. All they talk about is the ghetto, money, power, violence, drugs, and booty....yawnnnnnnnnn
