We As Americans

Postby Chalky » Sep 3rd, '14, 00:56

How great is this track, i wish it was on the actual album, even with all the crummy songs this song alone would have made Encore a classic in my opinion. Such a wonderful track & glad it was at least put out on the bonus. 10/10

Probably my favorite song from Encore. I really like this track.
" Life can change your directions, even when you ain't planned it
All you can do it handle it, worst thing you can do is panic
Use it to your advantage, avoid insanity manage
To conquer, every obstacle, make impossible possible
Even when winning illogical, losing is still far from optional.." -T.I.

Great song should've been on encore

Other than the first few lines of the third verse, that verse could've been better.

no one song can make a subpar album a classic but obviously it would have helped. nonetheless its a great track for a lot of reasons.

Just shows Eminem wasn't completely inept at writing dope verses at that time. Love this song.

Fantastic song.
Fuck top five, bitch, I'm top four
And that includes Biggie and Pac, whore
And I got an Evil Twin
So who the fuck do you think that third and that fourth spot's for?

I think it's one of Eminem's best beats in his career. I like to jam the instrumental sometimes.

It's a dope song, it still holds up now. It's a good example of a song with social commentary being timeless and relevant years later. Gun control, fighting censorship, bashing the government...it applies to any era.

There was a programme in England a good few years back where an oxford professor cited these lines declaring Em as a genius at poetry. I gotta agree with man .

Like Crazee said, amazing beat. Great vibe to it.
