This review is the best out so far because it was not obvious!! I liked the imagery and real relaxed content feel it has to it.

The fact that Royce agrees about the sentiment gets me excited though!! If this is new Eminem "no content" rap then his "content rap" should be pretty poignant.

As someone who grew up listening to Bone Thugs I am quite accustomed to double time speed, it is nothing new and its been around forever.
Most reviews im reading however are highlighting that particular passage as some sort of never before seen impossibility of man.
I think a couple of reasons why are: Eminem is white man, eminem has never layed down that speed on an album before but mostly because that section is damn near flawless in delivery, flow, crispness and any other technical aspect. The universal and unquestionable opinion is that Rap God is probably the greatest display of lyrical wordsmith ever. Sure you might have seen something more diverse in one song, but it would have been with 4 other rappers, not one single person changing it up all the time.. The fact that after 4 minutes you are already blown away by everything he has done in the song then he goes into double time you are left floored. It was the knockout punch.
