[Pre-song discussion] Obie x Em - Richard & untitled

[Trimss]

Lol actually almost every magazine and critics were saying Eminem's verse was the highlight of the album.

> bad expectations
> won't be disappointed

that's how I'm going with this one.

[Kill You]

I clearly remember when obie was tweetin that pic of him and em in the studio there was some tweet about someone rappin about their big dick or somethin. I almost would bet my life thats what this will be about. You gotta realize that all ya gotta do to enjoy the is have a sense of humor, why be so serious i mean damn

It really depends on how it's presented...Throw It Up was a bad verse when you look at the content but it's entertaining for what it is...it was presented in a way that wasn't SO bad, not as bad as some people make it out to be. It could be about their dicks if it's presented in a humorous and not so immature way...he could do it if it's done right.

But like I said, I'm REALLY hoping this verse won't be about dicks and will redeem Em in the eyes of critics after Throw It Up.

What Critics? those guys on SL are critics now

Well, I meant anyone who criticizes him for Throw It Up...could be any site or anybody. I've seen YouTube comments saying how subpar the verse is too. Because actual music critics have taken his new work very well actually. H:TS has good reviews (better than Recovery's, actually) so I don't mean them...I mean fans who feel let down from it. And as a fan I'll admit I was disappointed in the verse but there are some enjoyable things about it and I can still listen to his verse no problem. It's entertaining if you look at it from a certain perspective...the song wasn't meant to be serious, therefore that's exactly what we got...a non-serious track that Em didn't even want to be a part of in the first place. I don't see how anyone could expect too much more than what we were given.

what magazine?

[Trimss]

what magazine?

There's a curious moment at the end of the sixth track on Yelawolf's major-label debut. It's "Throw It Up", one of the album's highlights

Pitchfork

That being said, the songs are very good. Yelawolf’s lyrics paints the most righteous visuals in your imagination. Standout tracks me to are Growin Up In The Gutter, Let’s Roll, Radio, Hard White, Animal, Throw It Up and the album’s intro track. While the whole album is listenable, these are my favorites.

Overall, it's just the fans that didn't love it.
Brainresidue

On the menacing “Throw It Up” with Eminem and Gangsta Boo, Yela doesn’t yield on the mic. “I got two cars in the yard that don’t run, so why the fuck would I break shit down for you,” he sneers before moving out of the way for Em, who puts on a rhyming clinic. “My, Yelawolf and Gangsta Boo came here to, show you a thing or too/About sign language, middle fingers aimed at you, so we don’t have to scream at you.”

XXLmag

Most impressively, he holds his own next to his trailer trash trailblazing label boss Eminem on the rewind worthy Throw It Up, a cut that also gives Gangster Boo her most high profile placement since Outkast’s Call Before I Come. It’s a Southern thing

Lol I was talking about Throw It Up, since the guy above me said smth about critics and sl and throw it up.

I'm scared about this richard collab tbh, but Em on a dre beat..
(maybe it's an ooooold ass collab)

[Emadyville]

@Trimss I think we thought you were talking about Richard. at least I did.

so did i

[Emadyville]

just to clarify, this was a song done a few years ago correct?

[Trimss]

I think Richard might be an old 2004/2005 song, and if there's an itunes bonus song, well that would be the new one.

[Emadyville]

just to clarify, this was a song done a few years ago correct?

The song "Richard"?

yeah

[ScottMurray]

The picture of Em and Obie in the study a few months ago looked as if they were fooling around and having a laugh, could maybe be the way they went into the song ?

Hoping for a real good track from them tho

[Emadyville]

Is it confirmed that this is an old track? I want 2012 Em

i thought it was when he was doing bottoms up, then he got dropped, so i assumed it was back then they did it

[Emadyville]

well i feel like the whole obie getting dropped thing woulda had him pissed with em, maybe i'm wrong tho

[Trimss]
