EMINEM - RAP GOD

[4Corners]

Rap God is at 12 now

Ooh my fucking god. Who, just freaking tell me WHO can listen to this and say he lost it??

People who will never be satisfied until we go back in time, kidnap Eminem from the 8 Mile set and bring him to 2013.

These people wouldnt be satisfied still. They dont know that Em isnt the problem today, its the they themself who live in the Clouds and forget that no matter how good Eminem still is, they have grown tired of him. And thats perfectly fine, nothing Em can do about it.

We who will appreciate him however will forever be baffeled by his constant innovation and nack for being all up in our faces when something new drops.

I fucking love Eminem!

Exactly. People need to realize we're in 2013 not 2002, 11 fucking into the future. I mean fuck, do you realize how ridiculous it is for someone to have an 11 year prime? Everyone declines eventually, it's how it goes. A Second Prime is possible, but to hope and pray on that is asking for disaster.

One of the only complaints I've got about the track is about halfway through. At 3:20, it gets fucking awesome, then at 3:50, he comes out with the Columbine line reference, which is genius, but directly after he's finished with it, the song just goes quiet again. The rest of the song is still awesome as fuck, but it feels like it's building up to something even bigger, and then it just dies.

Don't get me wrong, I love the song a HUGE amount, but every song has flaws.

Damn I've probably missed tens of Tweets by other rappers... I'll have to catch up.

But seriously, this track is fucking awesome.

I love how he brought back the old delivery @ 2:55.

Absolutely... I just said the buzz is getting outta control in that Berzerk Sales thread. This shit is gonna leave mark...

Thank you for sharing this awesome opinion with me.

Artists usually gain a fanbase in the early steps of their career. Then these fans stick around to support the artist and feel proud to have been there 'from the start'.
With Eminem it seems people (obviously young people who didn't even listen to Em in his prime) just keep saying it was all better before. It was great before, now it sucks.
Its always black or white.

If people actually believe he will constantly TOP his last work theyre fucking stupid. He basically did that though back in the day, maybe that's why people think he could do it again.
But I think some people put albums next to albums to much. Just listen and enjoy, no matter what era it is from, damnit.

That fraking double-time shit from 4.20 on is CRAZY btw

Em paying homage not to just those great legend but to Pharoahe & Lakim Shabazz... esp. to Lakim Shabazz!

I just honestly think that they pedestal him too high to the point where they forget he's human, and humans eventually lose their drive, shine or whatever with age, especially if there's no fire under their ass at all. I mean shit, we should be thankful we're getting more music and it's still incredible. Imagine if he started spittin' 2 Chainz bars. He doesn't HAVE to top his last album, he should focus on putting out great music, and so far in my opinion he's doing great. Fans don't know what they want until they hear it, and Rap God is proof. Everyone was calling MMLP2 "Recovery 2" but notice how that quickly turned around. So many people are followers I swear.

Em always shows respect to the GOATs as well as underground MCs. I wish I loved anything as much as this dude loves hip-hop.

Yeah I said it yesterday... Em's such a Hip-Hop fan. Damn Lakim & his crew were relevant in like late 80's...

Would be some craaaaaazy shit if we did. Imagine performing this on Jimmy Fallon too..

At this point they definitely have to think of a video for it even though I doubt that was planned. It'll fucking murder YouTube if they did one so they better!
