I can't believe how generic the song . It has the same gimmicky beat as every other pop song out there. What surprised me about the song is that the lyrics of his verses are just worthless. It's as if the lyrics were not meant to be heard. He just slipped in a little A-A rhyme scheme over a crappy beat. An Eminem song with a crappy pop beat where the lyrics do nothing but be there for the sake of it. There's no emotional connection between the lyrics and the overall vibe of the song whatsoever.

What made Eminem stand out from the rest of the rappers is how his intricate rhyme patterns just ooze attitude and be the music that his often minimalistic beats need. Now, this crappy beat doesn't need these verses. What he says has no effect on the song. The lyrics no longer take centre stage. The song doesn't have a distinct atmosphere that LTWYL has. There's nothing behind the lyrics, no matter how good they are on paper. This is a new low for a solo Eminem song.

This. If you don't like that's fine just don't go fighting all of us that do.

Who's RFC?


Some dude who sounded legit on here saying he got Relapse and Recovery both a week early before (although they had already leaked so it didn't matter) and that his hook up (his dad I believe) who owned the store he got 'em from said that the albums had already arrived. He said he would be getting one today without a doubt.

Some of you guys are too emotionally invested into Em's music. I love Em, he's my favourite and personal best to ever do it but when a song is subpar to me, I go "ah damn, oh well" move on and never listen again...not DWELL over it and try to make other people feel bad for liking it. I'm almost ashamed for you that most of the main culprits are way into their 20s and react like 15 year old girls :laughing:

That big/shrink line was sick.

Wooooord. And there's been quite a lot of those songs in the last few years, and I don't even know what they are cuz I did exactly that

Again...song is hot. Em likes this music, he said he loved paper trail, this is what paper trail sounds like. I also like paper trail blazday blah. ....still.....need......leak

He needs to throw on lose yourself and make 'em lose it, too.

Maybe make him lose his album so it'll leak, idk. Man I want this album already

His verse on LTWYL part 2 was bretty beastly, IMO.

The song is really fun to listen to after a few spins… It sounds much better in the car or with better speakers but it's really catchy and most of the things he's saying have substance… The song is really clean not a whole lot of cursing and is very radio friendly… I can tell u that they have been playing it on the local radio stations here in LA and I believe it will do really well on the charts...

Gave the song a few more listens, goes from a 4 to 5/10. Don't think I can go any higher, the lyrics are the only thing I like. Even though he's been telling this same story since his Airplanes verse.

I feel like there is no personality in Eminem's music anymore. It's all mechanical, forced, and inauthentic. Maybe that's just me.
Somebody dropped me on my head and I'm for sure
That my mother did it but the bitch won't admit it was her
I slit her stomach open with a scalpel when she was six months
And said "I'M READY NOW BITCH!! AIN'T YOU FEELIN THESE KICKS CUNT?!
