Eminem's most impressive lyricisim

Postby KingDavid » Mar 26th, '11, 18:13

Ok.So this is a topic to discuss what you guys think eminem's best lyrics are!

Here's some of my favorite shady rymez

Infinite - 313
"You couldn't make the fans throw up their hands if you made them swallow their fingers"

SSLP- As the world turns
"Dressed like a sailor, standing by a pale of garbage
Its almost dark and I'm still tryna nail a trailor park bitch"

anything off rockbottem is also insane.

MMLP- Marshal Mathers
"Double barrel twelve gauge bigger than Chris Wallace
Pissed off, cause Biggie and 'Pac just missed all this
Watchin all these cheap imitations get rich off 'em
and get dollars that shoulda been there's like they switched wallets"

TES-Sing for the moment
Entertainment is danger, intertwine it with gansters
In the land of the killers, a sinner's mind is a sanctum

Relapse- stay wide awake
"holler, there's no one fowler
bound to the tub they found ya' face down in the tub
I drowned you with piles of downers around ya
Such nostalgia and powers, such prowess, look how you cowered
Jumped out on you now like i was a jawa frm fuckin star wars"

Almost famous Recovery
"I just laced my gloves with enough plaster to make a cast,
beat his ass naked and peed in his corner like verne troyer"
:flutter: :flutter: :flutter:

"The years I've wasted are nothing to the tears I've tasted" - Haillies Song

Pretty much the definition of great lyricism.

Also I would say the "what would Elvis do in your shoes" multi sequence from Deja Vu. Infact, most of Deja Vu.

Infact fuck it, most of Relapse is lyrically some of his best work. Just in terms of rhyming ability and imagination.

Came back to annihilate, the game's in dire straights, as I await
Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

Too many to mention, but one that comes into my head:

All I see is sissies in magazines smiling
Whatever happened to whylin out and bein violent?
Whatever happened to catchin a good-ol' fashioned
passionate ass-whoopin and gettin your shoes coat and your hat tooken?

The years I've wasted are nothing to the tears I've tasted

Live half my life throw the rest away

Or for anyone who's ever been through shit in they lives
So they sit and they cry at night, wishing they die
Till they throw on a rap record, and they sit and they vibe
We're nothing to you, but we're the fuckin' shit in their eyes
That's why we sieze the moment, and try to freeze it and own it
Squeeze it and hold it, 'cos we consider these minutes golden
And maybe they'll admit it when we're gone
Just let our spirits live on, through out lyrics that you hear in our songs

Well, I don't care really what you're like on the inside and I just really want you to come to bed with me. Would you do that if you could? Even if you were just average on the outside (but not fat) I could like you if you sounded smart.

I really think that lyrically, Em has done nothing but improved since day 1. Even if you hate his different flows and styles, his different topics, etc. The one thing Em has kept almost 100% consistent throughout his career is lyrical progression.

Honestly, there's no other rapper who can touch Em lyrically. If he's aiming for precision/on-point syllable compound -- making every multi rhyme for every bar of an entire verse, look at half of Relapse/Refill. Punchlines (which for some reason a lot of you hate) look at Recovery, admittedly, some of it is silly but a good portion of his punchlines and wordplay on that album is absolutely superb.

People think Em goes through flows/styles, then gets rid of them. I remember an interview he did late 2009/early 2010 talking about how he's gotten bored for the english language, so he's now trying to see how far he can bend words to make them rhyme (Relapse).

I think he's undoubtedly able to pull any of his old flows/styles/rhyme schemes out of his seemingly bottomless bag, but over the last 12 years or so, he's gotten bored. Hence why he goes through what we see as "phases". Since his comeback it was the accent, it was the regular voice, the slightly tuned up voice, the vocal tearing, the yelling, and now a hybrid between them all (maybe not the accent so much).

Not trying to sound like a Stan here, but as a fan of hiphop as a whole, Em is on a whole other level lyrically. Nobody has his diversity. And don't think for one second that he's not perfectly capable of going back and pulling out those old styles.

Yes, it's a stupid song, but it's actually decent lyrically. Contrary to popular believe, the song is not poorly written.

His most impressive lyricism; I'd have to say Lose Yourself. Absolutely phenomenal.
