Eminem has revealed that he is considering retiring from the music industry.

The rapper, who released his first major label album in 1996, claimed that he will quit hip-hop if his material begins to dip in quality.

"Honestly, I don't know how much longer I have in this game," Metro quotes him as saying.

"Looking back on it now, there was some pretty mediocre things that I was putting out… when I was making Encore, my addiction took on a life of its own.

"I remember going to LA, recording with Dre and being in the studio high, taking too many pills, getting in this slap-happy mood and making songs like 'Big Weenie' and 'Rain Man' and 'Ass Like That'."

He continued: "[Dre] would just laugh. He didn’t understand what was going on. Nobody understood what was going on with me or why I was acting so ******ing goofy."

Eminem added that he believes his fans will decide when he bows out of music.

"The fans might say the s**t is garbage. You don't how long people are going to want you around," he said.

"Realistically, if I don't rap, what the ****** am I going to do? It's too late to just be unfamous right now at this point."

Eminem's latest single 'Love The Way You Lie' is on course to top the UK singles chart this Sunday.

LOL if that was true then he should have retired along time ago.

Real Hip Hop heads have been saying he fell off for years.

Oh these "Real Hip-Hop" fans astound me, where are they i must go and punch them.....

[Scarlett.]

How many times has he retired? lol

[Iceman]

Just the once and it was more of a break he was all over the shop......

[Scarlett.]

lol, I don't think he'll retire, especially not now

[Iceman]

yeah he's returned big time, the more I listen to recovery the more I love it.....

[AfroMullet]

Em fell off along time ago.

Anything after The Marshall Mathers LP (Excluding the 8 Mile Soundtrack and a few tracks off the Eminem Show) has been garbage. Relapse was unlistenable and Recovery had some of the gayest lines ever said in Hip Hop, making a track saying that Lil Wayne and Kanye West would beat you in a battle is not 100 smh.

Well if you think so why are you here telling me? I couldn't care less what you think......the fact is the man is a legend and will keep releasing great material.......but hey I guess "Proper Hip-Hop" fans won't like it.....

[Smithy]

Plus Kanye's a twat

[AfroMullet]

LOL, im not telling you, im just stating what i think. If you dicest his music, your find a decrease in quality ever since the Marshall Mathers LP. His flow, multis, punchlines, wordplay and imagery are no where near the standard they once were. You dont have to give a **** what i think, but its true.

Plus he looks more and more reptilian everytime i see him.

[Tom4784]

Eminem retires every other week so I wouldn't take it seriously

[Shaun]

I wish he would...he's so blah nowadays. The only song I've really liked in the past 5 years was Won't Back Down.

Eminem has claimed that he will no longer comment on or make reference to his brief relationship with Mariah Carey.

The rap superstar, who spoke about Carey on his latest album Recovery, has insisted that he has nothing else to say about the singer and her husband Nick Cannon.

"You know what? I got to be honest. I really don't want to talk about her anymore only just because it's kind of like the last thing I said about her was on 'Cold Wind Blows'. I made the comment ['Take a look at Mariah next time I inspire you to write a song']. I don't want to keep beating a dead horse," he told Vibe.

"I'm not even going to comment about it. I'm done with that whole situation. I said what I had to say. I'm done."

FOR THE PEOPLE WHO SAY HE LOST IT............



I'm alive again
More alive than I have been in my whole entire life
I can see these people's ears perk up as I begin
To **** with the pen, I'm a little bit sicker than most
****'s finna get thick again
They say the competition is stiff
But I get a hard dick from this ****, now stick it in
I ain't never giving in again
Cuss into the wind, Complete freedom
Look at these rappers, How I treat them
So why the **** would I join them when I beat them
They call me a freak because
I like to spit on these pussies fore I eat them
Man get these whack cocksuckers off stage
Where the **** is Kanye when you need him?
Snatch the mic from him, Bitch I'mma let you finish in a minute
Yeah the rap is tight
But I'm ****ing with the greatest verse of all time
So you might want to go back to the lab tonight and um
Scribble out them rhymes you were going to spit
And start over from scratch and write new ones
But I'm afraid that it ain't gonna make no difference
When I rip this stage and tear it in half tonight
It's an adrenaline rush to feel the bass thump
In the place all the way to the parking lot, My fellow
Set fire to the mic and ignite the crowd
You can see the sparks from hot metal
Cold-hearted from the day I Bogarted the game
I so started to rock fellow
When I'm not even in my harshest
You can still get roasted because Marsh is not mellow
Til I'm toppling from the top I'm not going to stop
I'm standing on my Monopoly board
That means I'm on top of my game and it don't stop
Til my hip don't hop anymore
When you so good that you can't say it
Because it ain't even cool for you to sound cocky anymore
People just get sick cause you spit
These fools can't drool or dribble a drop anymore
And you can never break my stride
You never slow the momentum at any moment I'm about to blow
You'll never take my pride
Killing the flow, Slow venom and the opponent
Is getting no mercy, Mark my words
Ain't letting up, Relentless
I smell blood, I don't give a ****, Keep giving them hell
Where was you when I fell and needed help up?
You get no love
