A super deluxe edition is a real possibility now. I thought Interscope scrapped the whole idea of this reissue thing due to mess that happened during the Chromatica era. However, Eminem had the lack of promo either and the last single from the album was released in January. So, we might definitely get at least 3 new songs from Gaga in the next few months

I had no idea he released one already, must've missed it but no one is talking about it ?

As for the Gaga comments, I can't imagine Chromatica getting a re-release so soon with so many single worthy songs in there like Sour Candy, Sine From Above, Alice and Babylon.

Taht's because we're on a gay forum.

True but just read that it came out in January which doesn't feel like 2020 at all. I feel like 2020 started in March with COVID. What I'm saying is that Eminem is a big name and his album is not being talked about on End of 2020 lists or anything and I do watch several reviewers and stuff like that.

Oh wait you're saying you didn't even know Side A was released? Yes in that case it's because we're on a gay forum too.

As for critics, often it's just a popularity contest. Whoever that promoted the album the most will undoubtedly get feature, also ageism plays a role, younger artists often get featured but not the older ones. Eminem has been in the industry for decades and he barely promoted his album.

To be fair, I'm involved in some rap / hip hop communities and music to be murdered by was only talked about for a couple weeks after it was released. Godzilla made a pretty big impact but that's about it. Although it does appear to be on quite a few hiphopheads top albums this year. 

Although Mac Miller's posthumous album also dropped that day so it overshadowed everything.
