Edit: this seems to have evolved from millennials to gen x apperantly.
On tiktok there is this whole ass beef of millennials saying that gen z shouldn't be so butthurt about Eminem's new album.
Thing is i have yet to see a gen z that gives a single fuck about Eminem.
Everyone's just making fun of millennials, saying they should take their schizophrenia meds.

who is gen Z, also thanks for reminding me to take my scizzo meds
-
According to brave search AI: anyone born between 1995 and 2010.
So like gen z is the first generation that really grew up with modern technology which results in very unique behaviour in the majority of this generation. Also this is the only generation old enough to be adult but not in their 30's (well almost but not quite yet) which results in the typical age/generation related banter

Man, I really wanted to like Houdini. But he sampled Steve Miller so hard, that's ALL I hear.

Thank you for the reminder to go listen to his new album! Skimmed a few articles that say it's outstanding.
Edit: I'm back after a full listen through, start to finish. What an absolute banger of an album! The Best Eminem. Feels like a short time machine journey to the early 2000s but with modern references. Now I understand why at the end of the meme it's all angry faces, lmao.
I'm unlikely to listen to the whole album. To be honest I'm unlikely to listen to any of it.
With that in mind, care to explain this joke that clearly wasn't aimed at me?
The concept album is Slim Shady is trying to get Eminem cancelled. The album is filled with typical Slim Shady comments and jokes from the older years (modernized) that are now considered too offensive. Now, (I've heard) Gen Z and others who are listening to this stuff for the first time are getting confused and upset thinking he's a terrible person.
But, all the fans who wanted this got exactly what they wanted and seem to be genuinely happy with the album. It's those who are shocked at the lyrics that are upset. Anyone who's been a fan for long enough knows it's just for jokes.
So the joke is, Eminem gave fans what they asked for and then some of the younger people are thinking it's too offensive and are now upset.
I'm in the same boat, but I heard that Eminem killed off the Slim Shady character.
New album is fucking fire. Definitely needs to be listened all the way through for best impact.
