Airplanes and Forever verse>>>>>>Any verse on Recovery

[Lundra]

Airplanes verse wasn't that great.. Good song though.
I guess he didn't want to show B.o.B up since he's new.. and he doesn't really like LIl' wayne or Drake and just does it to PWN them.

The Airplanes, and Forever verses are just perfect Eminem verses. There also better then any songs on Recovery. Love the emotion in both verses. No hate on Recovery though. Yeah your always suppose to bring your best on someones song, but he should have at least one or two verses that outshine all his guest features.

I know we aren't suppose to take >>> & <<<< posts seriously. But the thing is, these two sentences, where he's backing it with HIS reason and logic - "Love the emotion in both verses" & "but he should have at least one or two verses that outshine all his guest features" make me think he really believes this...

Dude have you listened to Recovery? It's bursting at the seems, with deep and honest powerful emotions. 25 to LIfe. GTC, YNO, Space Bound, Talking 2 myself, Not Afraid, Those songs have far more emotional depth than those semi hungry battle verses in Forever and DTW & the imagined "what if" verse in Airplanes. On top of that the raw energetic hunger in the battle style verses of Almost Famous, Cinderella Man, On Fire, Cold Wind Blows, & Here we Go, & won't back down, No Love, is vented through some of the sickest word play he's EVER spit! Man, He's so on fire in Almost Famous, it almost burnt up my pc playing that shit!

Hell even without all the verbal gymnastics, just straight spitin what he means, like in seduction the emotion and rhymes piss all over those verses! He oozes so much feelin there, I can totally picture him just cocked back spittin that shit to a bunch of rappers, LOL! What the fuck you gonna say back after he done pounded down your Manhood and skills at the same time, like that ...pounce on his mom??? I love that song..

pardon me for Stannin up here but King Mathers hasn't had a bad verse since the first one of Hell Breaks Loose

Maybe you just don't understand the metaphors that's why you think those simpler rhymes are better... Here you can listen to the song and click on the metaphors, and a pop-up explains the meanings, they aren't always correct, cuz Em's a complicated writer, but close enough, http://rapgenius.com/lyrics/Eminem/Almost-famous

If one isn't correct and you know what means, click add comment in the pop up box and explain it, if they think you're correct they'll update it..

Edit: You're right about including the lyrics... there..

I really don't like it when people try to change others opinions by some freaking long essays

I'm inclined to agree, especially when said essays are simply lyrics that anyone on this site knows and understands.

I don't remember anyone asking, but ok,... so? don't read them

I really don't like it when, people try to change someone else's opinion without explaining or backing up their opinion.

Like "Na-ah Recovery is 10 times better, it piss all over those verses" , seems mindless to me, might as well seal the deal in one essay than a bunch of little half ass ones

You're right I edited it and took the lyrics out. But don't assume everyone understands the lyrics.. There wouldn't be heavy discussions and lyrics in red because of lack of understanding if people did.

I'll show ya, I'll make a new topic using some lyrics I myself don't get! If get them I'd appreciate it if you clue me in, so I can add more points..

I'm not trying to sway OP's opinions, just expressing my own opinions in this thread as that's what discussions are about.

The thread starter needs a reality check

The only reason some feel Airplanes and Forever stands out from others is because Eminem is so called "better" in those tracks compared to the other MC's on the same track

This lets Em stand out of the crowd and get noticed .

same implies for Renegade

and the truth is Most verses on Recovery>>>>>>>>>Forever and Airplanes

[xxTrigger1989xx]

Both verses in 25 To Life alone are better than Airplanes and Forever
One of the best songs he's ever made
