Inspired by a recent Coli thread I listened to Chronic 2001 today and was reminded his flow used to be crazy. How the hell he go from Forgot About Dre to this
Track still hits before he shows up though
That's what sucks about it. The song was going hard before that. I thought it was better than the original, and Hit Boy's beat switches made it feel like an old-school remix. Even Nas sounded more intense on this one than the original.
I forgot who said it, but they made a great point that Eminem tends to ruin the "real nikka" vibe on these songs. You're like

for two minutes and then you're
![unimpressed :unimpressed: :unimpressed:](https://www.thecoli.com/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/unimpressed.png)
when the beat inevitably switches and his verse comes on. You can tell he's going to do his rappity rap thing because the beat becomes a lot more stripped back and it sounds like an acapella.
