about Em recently.
hear me out b4 you start bitchin'
He could have any beat he wants in the world. Yet he continues to pick shitty beats like Roman's Revenge or extremely boring/generic/poppy/girl beats like Lighters. He could have boom-bap production from Apathy. He could have eccentric beats from Celph Titled, funky soul beats from Kanye, Old-School from Premo, sick hardcore from an unknown dude or G-Funk beats from Dre. Think of all the songs we're missing out on because he decides to cater to the 13 year old girls who like him. He could have any singer for a hook or even write his own again yet he makes song with Bruno Mars and who knows maybe Justin Bieber next. He's almost 40 and time is slipping away for him as a rapper. He should focus on making actually good songs instead of focusing on sales and staying relevant. Here's a thought: Stay relevant to the people who matter in terms of judging rap. Those people are us: the underground fans, the fans who know more than three rappers and the fans who don't drake is "dizope, dood". And fuck product placement in a video, that's inexcusable. Old Em would make fun of that type of shit and now he turned into the joke. Don't get me wrong he can still make good songs when he wants to (Welcome 2 Hell, Fast Lane, Going Through Changes, Underground, Deja Vu), but this shit pisses me off.
