My Name Is = corny
Real Slim shady = corny
no
My Name Is = corny
Real Slim shady = corny
And can someone please provide me with 1 clever, deep or amazing punchline on any of his first singles? Anyone???? I'll wait...
I've created a monster, cuz nobody wants to
See Marshall no more they want Shady
I'm chopped liver
Well if you want Shady, then this is what I'll give ya
Now lets go, just give me the signal
I will be there with a whole list full of new insults
I've been dope, suspenseful with a pencil
Ever since Prince turned himself into a symbol
But sometimes the shyt just seems,
Everybody only wants to discuss me
So this must mean I'm disgusting,
But its just me I'm just obscene
Though I'm not the first king of controversy
I am the worst thing since Elvis Presley,
To do Black Music so selfishly
And use it to get myself wealthy (Hey)
There's a concept that works
20 million other white rappers emerge
But no matter how many fish in the sea
It'll be so empty without me
My Name Is is a fukking classic. Got the SSLP tape based on that. I would play it front to back every song. Em has had the biggest falloff ever. How can you go from making a song like Stan to rapping in accents for a whole album?
And Hailey isn't his daughter?
Nice to see sunzoo on his job. My faith in humanity has been restoredI wouldn't say it was "deep" but not only did without me have some dope schemes/flows and even lines ("suspenseful wit a pencil ever since prince turned himself into a symbol") the whole songs concept was clever and tied in with the theme of the album.
He was and still is that labels saving grace, look at what went on when he went on hiatus. The lyrics were funny but seeing how TES was inspired by the truman show, in the song he's showing you how self aware he is career wise and points to the fact that he's getting uncomfortable with it.
They can't create another eminem phenomenon, they can't create another talent or marketing scheme that will ever have them eating like they been eating off Marshall Mathers. In the context of The Eminem Show that song has it's place, is lyrically straight, flows schemes on point...this shyt bezerk shyt is noise.
I do agree with you on the point that em's first singles are never really indicative of what the album will actually sound like, this shyt's not a good sign though
Now this shyt's about to kick off, this party looks wack
Let's take it back to straight hip-hop and start it from scratch
My Name Is = corny
Real Slim shady = corny
