Elevator = severely underrated (single potential)

[xxTrigger1989xx]

Elevator's got that Shady craziness that feels natural

[IrishShady]

It was released as a single. It didnt do shit.

what really? proof please...

Exactly...Wikipedia...

[Timekeeper]

It was released as a DIGITAL single, the same way "Old Time's Sake" was. It wasn't a radio single, which is what this thread is about.

[Rindain1]

It's awesome because the Shady from SSLP and MMLP is back, not the serial killer Shady from Relapse

The joking about how ridiculously huge his house is is hilarious too, and it's fun to hear about how pissed he gets at his neighbors and cars driving by honking.

It's just a really, really fun song with a beat just as catchy as TRSS or Without Me, some incredible rhymes, and no accent.

[VenomBlackViper]

Honestly this could've replaced Beautiful as the final single for Relapse, his Lambert/Aiken line would've gotten even more attention then as well. So yeah it had huge potential as a single

I agree.

They would probably have had to rewrite it just a bit so there wouldn't be *bleeps* every few seconds though.

Agreed tenfold.

He could've just taken out a couple uses of "fucking" that didn't NEED to be their and not include the outro on the clean version.

The elevator beat reminds me of his first 3 singles, along with the outro with just the beat playing. Em beat are awesome; I hope he does a bunch for his next album. And the chorus might just be the catchiest chorus he's ever made.

Plus the song is funny and clever as fuck and has amazing rhymes, i.e.:

Chainsaw slaughters turn your daughters into sawdust
I never thought it’d come to this, I outta just be honest but

Damn I love that rhyme..

Why don't I see this song on the list of best Em songs>?

Most underrated Em song ever imho.

It definitely should have been on either Relapse or Recovery. I can't get enough of it. It has one of Eminem's finest hooks. I think it could have been huge if it were a real single with a video and had been on a real album. It has a distinct TES vibe that I dig.

[Kez]

The chorus and beat are great and the third verse is pretty sick but the other verses are just kinda filler lol. It's obvious he didn't really have anything to actually say with the song, which is surprising cause the whole blowing up and having a huge house thing gives him a lot to work with. I think the third verse he properly got on the concept that the song should have been.

[shadyboymez]

i tried but i could never like this song. just because there isn't an accent on it doesn't mean it's automatically "back to his TES flow" because it isn't

[zCold]

It's a boring song. Barely any of the verses have anything to do with the chorus.

Some totally shit lines like:

"rappers try to play me, they use Hailie as a ukulele."
"Daddo's fucking crazy, fuckin' animal, kookoo, bananas, fuckin' ey, B?"
"Homie I'm the shizer, ask Dr Drezum"
"You pussies queef all over the rap game naked and use a leaf to wipe up the crap stains, I'll just keep saying the exact same check it." WTF?

Forced rhyming everywhere. It's nothing like TES, dumb fuck.

The third verse is the only good part about this song.

~ When I first heard this line I thought it was dope as fuck. Then I thought about it again and I realized it really just doesn't make sense, like it doesn't quite connect.
~ Believe hes saying fuckn A B. Which is BA (BadAss) backwards, meaning hes flipping out.
~ Schizer means "shit" in German btw. Still forced shyt but meh.
~ LOL .. Idk.

Anyway I see what you mean, rofl, never really thought about it.
Still dig the song though >..> I mean not on repeat or anything, but I definitely don't dislike it.

I always thought "AB" = ass backwards.

People sometimes say "fuckin' A..." I'm not sure why, but they do. So he said "fuckin' A, B" Rappers refer to people as "B" sometimes

That's why they put my lyrics up under this microscope.
