He’s gonna forever win cause his fans will always support no matter what. Everything he mostly makes now sounds the same and there’s nothing new unless it’s some new flows he’s trying to unlock. But most of the time I can’t listen to the shyt he’s saying on songs cause there’s nothing he’s saying, he’s just rhyming for the sake of it.

i agree. i think em will always be more compelling when he actually has something to talk about (no matter how juvenile); i think his ability to convey a visual is criminally overlooked when it comes to what made him great. but i also respect it. he's dedicating himself to the craft of rapping and rhythm during an era when one of the main complaints is that rappers dont take the art of MC'ing seriously anymore. and after years of constantly living up to the pressure of carrying sales for interscope and aftermath, i would imagine it's liberating to know that no one's expecting him to drop a my name is/slim shady/without me/not afraid and shake shyt anymore. he can do whatever he wants now.

some people are handling this late career transition better when it comes to results (nas + hitboy). but i appreciate em for still trying to find a lane all these years later.

also... the reaction to em kinda justifies andre's hesitancy to take another swing. i'd rather embrace the legends for trying -- even if i dont fukk with it -- then tear them down and send them into hiding. at this point, whatever they give us is just a bonus.

Eminem is so played out and corny at this point. He has been corny for a decade, but now he's not even good anymore. He mistakes rhyming fast for rhyming well. Giraffe? Really?

The difference with Nas & Em is that he's actually making something worth listening to. Em is just screeching chalkboard rap at this point in his career. Too many yes men in his circle, this diss is one example.

And yet you stay talking about him more than any of his 'stans'.


I'm just giving my opinion :manny: Nobody has to listen or agree with it. Good for him dropping new music but he should follow what Nas is doing, but that's not gonna be easy to do that cause he can't rap about the same things.

breh. no one's disagreeing with you. i acknowledged what you're saying, i'm just not invested in shytting on em, or any other legend unless they earn it.

and i liked the diss. a lot. that's the best em has sounded in a while.

why? em is always miles better when he has a target/topic to focus his pen on. without one, he just focuses on his pen. his problem aint yes men. his problem is he's an exteme introvert that doesn't come outside anymore and has nothing to talk about as a result. the lions playoff run is the most visible and engaged em has been since... shyt, i couldn't even tell you.

The only good thing about this song is he isn't yelling like his past stuff, i mean the diss he shot at Game at had the same tone and it was good for what it was, but as a diss it was a weak attempt. This song is gonna come and go like the other stuff that dropped.

Paul Rosenberg is keeping Em in a igloo and it's showing. Nobody was talking about no fukking Benzino.
