You guys will like anything realesed by eminem. This is not good, it has some funny lines and some good rhymes, but thats it. The subject of the song is horrible, all he's talking about is fucking asses in as many ways as he can. It's stupid. I wasn't expecting anything because it was a throwaway from relapse but i thought it would be better then this. His verse from Forever >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> this

It's hard to retain respect for Slim with tracks like this.

Yes, I can fully understand it's lyrically outstanding, in terms of complexity and technique...

But the content is bullshit.

I don't know if Eminem ever wants to garner the respect of more hip hop heads than just the faithful fans who have worshiped SSLP, MMLP, and TES, but if he continues to make lack-of-content, accented songs like this, he'll never achieve the fame he wants according to 'Till I Collapse.

You probably will say it's a fun track and you like Eminem broadening his horizons, but tell me this: how many times have Eminem repeated himself on the subject of ass, celebrities, and random serial shit? Basically, all of Relapse. Relapse is lyrically great, but on the same token, lyrically terrible, if you catch my drift.

Don't get me wrong; I'm not hating on Relapse or I wouldn't be here, but I'm not sure why Eminem purposely makes these funny singles for. We understand you can rhyme. Now deliver some true messages that actually have meaning, not some retarded, on-crack shit where you rhyme mad.
Yo, from the first to the last of it; delivery is passionate/
The whole and not the half of it; vocab and not the math of it/
Projectile that them blasted with; accurate assassin shit/
Me and Kweli close like... Bethlehem and Nazareth/

Cause the shit I hear is crazy
But your either getting lazy or you don't believe in you no more
Seems like your own opinions, not one you can form
Cant make a decision you keep questioning yourself
Second guessing and its almost like your begging for my help

I completely agree with everything you said, but remember this was a leftover track from relapse. And who knows what he was thinking when he made that album. Hopefully R2 will be more like Forever and The Warning.

definitely not what I was expecting. The second I heard the intro I wanted to turn it off. But the lyrics were funny. I silently laughed at some parts.

yes, this was funny, which he hasnt really done since TES, so I enjoyed it, and I understand the lyricism is great but also not great because of what he says, but whatever, it's a fun track, random leftover shit, one only em heads will enjoy, and thats why most of it enjoy it i think :y:

^ Yeah exactly. The flow and lyrics were on point, it was just the content. The Rosie, Tara Reid, Sarah Palin, and Uvula lines were my favorites.

its funnier than fack. every song doesnt have to be neccesirily about motivating or killing hoes,about about humour?there was no humour in relapse at all except the ken keniff skit.

the lyrics and chorus is awesome,fuck the haters!
