I honestly think it's Interscope behind those single shananigans, Eminem in his right mind wouldn't put a song like Monster on a cd called MMLP2. And Survival is obviously a leftover, no artist has ever made a new original song for a game.

Fair review btw, even though it could have done without the whole what kinda mode you're in intro.


:yeshrug:

Yeah I spoke on thinking Interscope still having a hold on his creative direction throughout the review. Far as the intro, it was necessary to me. Cuz I literally can't listen to this shyt after anything else, it literally has to be the first or last thing I listen to, it just won't fit into a rotation for me personally...That's the only perspective I was speaking from. But appreciate the read. :salute:

Tbf I have that perspective with a lot of artists. If I listen to Wu Tang I listen to nothing else for a week, if I listen to Yeezus in in the morning I'm fukked for the rest of the day. And so on.

There's a beautiful kind of pain
Setting fire to yesterday
Find ya life, find ya life, find ya life


Yesterday was the tornado warning, today is like the morning after
Your world is turned in half, you wake and weak to start de morning process
Rebuilding and you still a working progress
Today is a whole new chapter, is like an enormous ass, uh
The understorm is passed ya, you weathered it and poked its eye out
Used to smell the roses, stopped to inhale can't even tell your noses
So focused on the brightside, then you floor the gas pedal, and hit the corner fast
, the more asserted, never looking back, may hit the curb
, but everyday is a new learning curve, as you, steer through life
, sometimes you might not wanna swerve
, but you have to, to avert a disaster, lucky, no permanent damage,
cause they hurt you so bad, it's like they murdered your ass,
and threw dirt on your casket, but you returned from the ashes,
and that hurt that you have, you just converted to gasoline, and while you're burning the past, standing at inferno and chant

I think that's a reasonable review. I'm not an Eminem fan but I listen to everything as a student of the game, my rating would be between 2.5 -3 mics. There are some strong songs and good moments but there's also a lot of subpar shyt too, it's a mixed bag.

Very accurate but I'd leave it at Relapse > MMLP 2 and I'd rate it higher than 3/5. The songs that are the clear duds aside from Stronger than I Was are at least somewhat listenable and aight to me.

Nice to see an unbiased, objective based review on here for once. :salute:
11. Stronger Than I Was - I wanna give this shyt no stars, but I know the CaC coalition will be up in arms, so here you go, you fakkits:
(1/5)

:camby:

this shyt is hot garbage from start to finish. fukk eminem and every single one of his stans. his flow is still on point, but his beats, hooks, subject matter, quotables, everything else about this album is corny. not ONE song i can listen to without hearing some shyt to make me go :dwillhuh: or :what:. this shyt is :trash::trash::trash::trash::trash::trash:

How does he go from 'Kim' to 'Stronger Than I Was' :mindblown:

3. Rhyme or Reason - Ok, one of my favorite samples...Beat has a dope little bop to it. On first listen the gay ass Yoda voice & other various audiofukkeries threw me off on some :scusthov: shyt, but once again...remembering this is Eminem, at best, a super-lyrical comedian, you take it with a grain of salt and just chalk it up with the Jackie Chan face and enjoy the lyricism. He's talkin his shyt throughout, especially on the second verse with the white devil/horns lines. Seems like he throws a little sub at Jay with the "complain about a Picasso painting" line, not sure if that's a reach or not...yet.
(3/5)







Gay ass Yoda voice? Bytch you should have more respect for me i was almost your father but the line was too big!

similar to how i feel. songs like bad guy and evil twin i really like, but then songs like survival and a$$hole drag it down a bit. overall there were some i really liked and some i never care to listen to again.
