Rihanna feat. Eminem - Numb (link inside)

[djbifta]

Ems flow after the first weird bit is intense, im hoping he sticks to a similar style to this for his album! Anyway 50 cent x Eminem x Adam Levine is out on iTunes on the 27th, that's what im looking forward to, this was just a bonus

I remember listening to "Richard" and loving the way his voice sounded on the words "take it back if I"- I think that in this verse after the (infamous) "butt-police" line, it went into something similar to this sound, just so far as the way he holds his throat.

What the fuck did I just listen to?

[Kill You]

I like how in all his recent verses he's been referencing partying and drugs, making shit up like he used to do.

Most Bath Salts don't make you numb at all though...that's Cocaine.
As far as the song goes...eh, yeah, it's pretty awful. I'm surprised how angry people are over the verse though. I kind of like the experimentation. Not saying he did it the best, and it doesn't fit in with the song, but it's interesting to me.

Exactly, the verse is not as simple as people think & you pointed out the part of it where metaphors & puns kick in. It's interesting to me too overall.

I just listened to it, after reading comments here first...
Can't believe everybody is spazzing out so bad about it.
It's not a brilliant verse, but it's interesting... yeah there's some stupid bits in it, so lets hope he doesn't get overly silly again, but I think there's some nice / weird delivery and flow in there.
It's alright, just a throwaway appearance, what I was expecting.
After he does the "rear / rear / rear" thing, I actually love his flow/delivery from there, listening to it again... reminds me of "Here Comes the Weekend" where like every line is rhyming with the next, it's very tight and compact. I like that shit quite a lot.

Word... I actually get the ''ear/ear/ear/'' ''...here dear'' ''rear/ rear/ rear/'' thang too 'cuz if you add the ''Gosh darn'' cuss it goes like EM acts a fool on sum ''Hangover'' level.

This motha'fucka is getting crazier
I swear to God I enjoyed this I imagined how they laughed about it too. I didn't really expect that kinda verse but it's not bad really, it's just different. Flow & delivery are on point... plus it's goofy & funny so lyrics fit too ya know.
I think if he kept the echoed, back vocal rhyming all the way to line 4 it'd be a good opening too but first he changed the voice on line 3 & then broke the rhyme on the 4th one which kinda fucked it up right there rhyme wise. It'd way better if it was...

........ (drywall)
.........(eyeball)
.......high(No)
.............lie(hoe)

Y'all overreacting 'cuz y'all expected serious shit & that's goofy instead. I mean yeah... lyrics a simple & all that but for a 30 seconds goofy verse there are good enough rhymes & even puns & metaphors.

NUMB NUMB NUMB NUMB NUMB NUMB NUMB NUMB NUMB NUMB NUMB NUMB NUMB NUMB im going numb

Overall, one of the worst, most unentertaining, utterly pointless songs I have ever heard.

Yeah, I have this friend who hates the idea of fiction as soon as it's applied to rap- have had countless arguments with him about this very thing.

-Oddly enough, said friend listens to Atmosphere, and Slug is all about making up stories. For goodness sakes, he dies at the end of the song "Scalp". He said in an interview that "Family Sign" is the only album where he was mostly doing autobiographical music.

Word, like most rappers aren't even as rich as they seem to be.

Lol yeah- ever freestyle with some dude in his shitty mildewed basement, and all he's talking about is being stacked?

So far as "Numb"- I loved the line "show me where the gosh darn bath-salts are, 'cuz I'm sick o' sniffin' asphault". "sniffin' asphault" evokes an image of him passed out in the middle of the street drunk, having faceplanted right on his nose. I thought it was pretty clever.

[Inkredible]

LMAO! This is hilarious! You people hyped this up for 100 pages thinking it was going to be some amazing Eminem verse, and it turned out to be the worst verse he's ever done.

Going to leave my posts from a few days ago here:

Honestly, can we stop complaining that it hasn't dropped yet. Can you not wait one week to hear what is probably going to an over-hyped sub-par Eminem verse.

Also, what has Eminem done this year, that tells us this verse is going to be even remotely good? I don't understand the hype for this song.

All the time... The ironic thing is, these dudes don't even have close to Kanye, Em or Jay-Z money and yet neither of the three brag about money or the life as much as the other rappers do.

Yeah I liked the imagery he gives during that part.
