Let's see, "hope to dream" has 3 syllables & "roses bring" has 3 syllables. The middle ones don't match. Isn't that the exact same situation with "screaming go" & "teen year old"? Why is yours better?

So why do authors write crime and murder mysteries? Because it's fascinating and hugely engaging - it's a hugely interesting subject, hence why there is sooooo much work about it.

Saying "why would you listen to it", is like saying why would anyone read Edgar Ellan Poe because he writes about murders. If it's done in an engaging and interesting way, why shouldn't people read it?

I think there is a huge difference between Edgar Allan Poe and Eminem... A song isn't the same as a book, in my book. Of course, there is space for story telling type of songs in music, songs about a different personna than oneself, however, it isn't the same as reading a book on murder. Music is what feelings sound like. Writing more than one song on the subject of rape and murder is almost as if Eminem felt like raping and murdering someone at that time of his life. Which is fine, I mean, we all feel that way, but it isn't the same as reading a book where someone gets raped or murdered. It's different.

Because apparently "es" (is sound) rhymes with to, and year doesn't rhyme with "ing."


You guys obviously don't understand rhyming

In roses bring and hope to dream, the es and the to don't matter, it still rhymes

In screaming go and teen year old the ing and the year do matter, it throws the rhyme off.

Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep

Yeah, that's what everyone's been saying. Technically, neither of the listed rhymes have TRULY rhymed, if spoken correctly. So everyone's just trying to say that it's the same thing. There's really no point in arguing here, class, you'll never change anyone's mind on Eminem

In screaming go and teen year old the ing and the year do matter, it throws the rhyme off.


No matter how many times I say it, "screaming go" and "teen year old" do rhyme, but I think part of the reason is because of the way people have typed it.

When Em says it while flowing it comes out:

screamin' go

teen year old

With that said "Year" and "ing" don't need to rhyme, mostly because the "g" is gone, that leaves:

scream vs. teen - Which you won't dispute rhymes

go vs. old - "ol" pronounced as an "o" sound makes it rhyme and is perfect use of the word without bending it.

That leaves your discrepancy of "in'" and "year" and the part that makes these rhyme (when I say it at least) is the "eh" sound on the "I" and "ea".


That's my opinion anyway, it flows and sounds perfect to me without changing any of the words at all (except missing the "g" but that seems to be common while people speak).
