Eminem's longest multies.

[Sam.]

a lot of people don't like "We Made You," and while the first verse has no internal multies, he consistently rhymes 5 syllables at the end up almost every line.

Back by popular demand < not this line
Now pop a little Zantax or antacid if you can

That line does have a 5 syllable rhyme. Popular demand/pop a little zan

Well look at all the massive masses in the stands
Shady man, no, don't massacre the fans
Damn, I think Kim Kardashian's a man
She stomped him, just 'cause he asked to put his hands
On her massive, gluteus maximus again
Squeeze it and squash it and pass it to a friend
Can he come back as nasty as he can?
Yes he can, Cam, don't ask me this again
He does not mean to lesbian offend
But Lindsay, please come back to seein' men
Samantha's a two, you're practically a ten
I know you want me girl, in fact I see ya grin
Now come in girl!

Walk up to the cutest girl and Charlie-horse her
Sorry Portia, but what's Ellen DeGeneres
Have that I don't? Are you tellin' me tenderness?
Well I could be as gentle and as smooth as a gentleman
Give me my Ventolin inhaler and two Xenadrine

Nail her, maybe say, "Hello to my little friend"
Brit, forget K-Fed, let's cut out the middleman
Forget him or you'll end up in the hospital again
And this time it won't be for the Ritalin binge
Forget them other men, girl pay them little attention
And little did I mention that Jennifer's inlove with me John Mayer, so sit on the bench
Man, I swear them other guys you give 'em an inch
They take a mile, they got style, but it isn't Slim


Damn girl, I'm beginning to sprout then Alfalfa
Why should I wash my filthy mouth out?
You think that's bad, you should hear the rest of my album
Never has their been such finesse and nostalgia

Jessica Alba, put a breast in my mouth, bruh
Wowzers! I just made a mess in my trousers
And they wonder why I keep dressing like Elvis
Lord help us, he's back and in his pink Alf shirt
Lookin' like someone shrinked his outfit
I think he's bout to flip, Jessica
Rest assured, Superman's here to rescue ya
Can you blame me? You're my Amy, I'm your Blake
Matter fact, make me a birthday cake
With a sawblade in it to make my jailbreak
Baby, I think you just met your soulmate
Now break it down, girl!

There's quite a few mistakes there. A lot of the syllable count doesn't match (i.e my Amy/make me) and a lot of the rhymes aren't really picked up properly. It's a decent indication as to how good the rhyming is though.

[Sam.]

It's fucking hard to mark them man .Why don't you correct them and post them in your thread.

I can't believe I'm about to do this, but fuck it...

[Devil'sAdvocate]

how his fucking rhymes keep on overlaping is just crazy,unprecedented and after he retires nobody will be able to do it half as good as he does.

/stan,and a proud one.

[ScottMurray]

Was just listening to Taking My Ball and the rhyming the whole way through the song is unbelievable aswell

[Amaranthine]

Stay Wide Awake's 2nd verse blew me away when I first heard it. He'd gone from rhyming one syllable per line for 4 years to rhyming entire bars for a whole verse. He was trying to push the boundaries and do something unprecedented...even if some of the rhymes were forced.

Forced? How are they forced?

He cheats in a few lines to make his daunting task a little easier.

He slaps filler words like "see" on the end a few times to complete the rhyme ("she's naked, see, no privacy", "so patient, see, I try to be", "I creep right through the front, see", "Escaping me, no dice, you see"). He's doing that or he's adding "G" (or Satan, G, what a sight to see).

"Scratching like some dumb freak" is an awkward simile that's only there for the rhyme. Of course, everything there is for the rhyme...but some lines like this are transparently so.

Pronouncing it "sound 'sleep" instead of "sound asleep" so the syllable count is consistent.

Then the weird/random dancing in red panties stuff that 's just crammed in there.

That said, I think Eminem did a great job...he even managed to narrate some events while doing it. I myself have tried to do this and it's extremely difficult to do without forcing. He did a much better job than me.

Great explanation, thanks! I've heard people complain about Em changing the pronunciation of words to make them rhyme, or "bending" them [particularly on Relapse, but he's always done it] and they claim that's something that takes away from his rhyming ability, and that's always pissed me off. I've always admired it, it shows that he doesn't let English's rules confine him, he doesn't conform to them. Hell, even freaking Shakespeare twisted the pronunciation of words [sometimes pretty dramatically] so they would fit into his rhyme scheme, and he only rhymed the last words of lines, in an ABAB or AABB scheme.

[Blu]

The first verse of We Made You is INCREDIBLE.

I never noticed those rhymes befo'.

Shakespeare isn't admired for his "dope rhymes".

Amadeo > Eminem
It's just you just fell off,right ?

[Sam.]

It's a shame, I had We Made You highlighted and saved on my computers for nearly two months and never got around to posting it.

You didn't even update that thread in a while.

[dbeauluvswomen]

You all forgot about this one

http://youtu.be/-Q4I7PGdW8w

I'm keeping it raw, illegal like Malik and Jamal
Cause I don't believe in the law, like I'm Steven Segal
Flippin off the police while I'm leaping a wall
Take some Tylenol and fall asleep in the mall
I got your little son, you'll be receiving a call
You're lucky this little punk still breathing at all
Fuck the world, this is how I get even at y'all
Pop shit, get rolled up, and leave in a ball
I'll hit you in the mouth and sink your teeth in your jaw
You won't be able to eat shit, not even a malt
This lethal assault is giving you a reason to stall
Cocking this deuce deuce and I'm squeezing it off
The first burp and a fart, sniffle, sneeze and a cough
Gets your arm chewed off like you was teasing a dog
I'm cold enough and hot enough to freeze and unthaw
I kick my girl out in 10 degrees in a bra
You faggots turn yellow like the trees in the fall
I'm shitting on rappers (Where's Shady?) he's in the stall
All that's left of your niece is a piece of her doll
And all that's left of her puppy is a leash and paw
