And to the fans, I'll never let you down again, I'm back
I promise to never go back on that promise
In fact, let's be honest, that last Relapse CD wasehh
Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground
Relax, I ain't goin' back to that now

I'm not talking about his obviously fake accents he used on later albums sometimes, i'm talking about what seemed to be his real accent that he had on The Slim Shady LP & The Marshall Mathers LP.

Yeah, I know that. I was just using a lyric that fit, lol

Is that an accent that some people in Michigan have that he had, but lost because he got famous and went to other places in the world?

I think he just stopped letting it be part of his rapping as a stylistic choice.

Could you post examples of what you're talking about please?

Also what do the abbreviations stand for?

Listen to just about any song on his The Marshall Mathers LP album then listen to a song on his next album after it, The Eminem Show and you can tell the difference.

They stand for The Slim Shady LP & The Marshall Mathers LP.

Changing your voice while rapping? Why I never!

His Detroit accent is all over Eminem Show. It's necessary for his rhymes.

The way you move it,
you make my pee-pee
go
Doing, doing, doing

LP... let's play? Also could you post a video because I really can't tell what you mean, everyone has an accent in the world, the question is what kind and what makes it stand out? Does he pronounce his r's in a certain way, his t's, s, or what?

You can't be serious in not knowing what LP stands for for music albums. It stands for Long Play.

I actually stopped listening to music after the eminem show so never heard his new material except for snippets of that new venom movie song which made me lol nope the video. Just didn't sound good.

MMLP and even MMLP2 didn't really have any accents

That was a terrible representation of his new album lol

I swear the rest is measures better

He def. sounds younger on SSLP than MMLP but that's about it. SSLP was also before he really found his own style. The Masta Ace and Outsidaz influence was still pretty obvious on that album and showed in his delivery.
---

That part on Bad Guy when he emulated his SSLP voice perfectly always gives me chills

He's been self aware enough to remember how he used to sound like

TC shut the fuck up
