For me, it shows little inspiration. Because the hook is already written, he doesn't struggle finding a proper subject to rap about. I want him to listen to the beat repeatedly until he comes up with a subject that'll do the beat justice.
I'm sure this is going to be a very good album and with titles like Rap God and Legacy it shows his intentions and confidence. I just wish he woulda rapped/sang his own hooks.
I agree. I kind of wish he did this album on his own with maybe 1 or 2 collaborating producers (like he did with the Bass Brothers). He seems more focused and consistent that way. He's great on hook and production and often does better work in these areas than the person he's featuring. Oftentimes I find the hook when sung by someone else doesn't match his passion or flow. You can tell it was just added in there.
My dream would have been for Em to boldly and confidently take the reins doing his own shit like Prince where almost every credit is himself lol. I wouldn't have minded at 10 out 15 tracks Produced by Em. He has the variety and he knows exactly what he wants. Instead he probably spent more time mixing and remixing other producers songs like he did with Survival when it probably would have been easier to just do the whole thing himself.
Agreed, with both.
