Em's change in his flows over the years

[EminemIVLife]

He definetely has changed his flow over the course of every single album he has released.
Infinite: Sounded like he was a very young NAS
Slim Shady LP: Had a kinda accent and his voice was high-pitched
MMLP: Flow more acid than before, voice still high pitched
Devils Night: Flow and voice becomes more powerful with more bass
Eminem Show: Flow is perfect (imo) voice sounds smooth and powerful
Encore: Obnoxious accent, less energy in his rhythmes than ever
Relapse: He add's the rapid burst flow that Tech does, (tho he did fast song in previous albums it is never in this manner) yet again updating his flow (I clearly remember realising this when hearing "Stay Wide Awake". Keeps obnoxious accent in a few tracks but shows signs of returning to Eminem Show flow.

I can rap the first four....relapse holy shit, flow is untouchable...I can't even lip those fuckin lyrics like stay wide awake and bagpipes....kid has progressed and it shows maturity on his part with not becoming one dimmentional (spelling I'm hella tired)....Relapse is an underrated album....yeppers I said it (what did I say about yeppers....sorry its from the office) god damn I'm tired

[Wic Kid]

His flow is better than ever, no fuckin doubt.

same here

[TriRepo]

That's what we call a creative musician The first time I noticed this same thing plus Eminem told it on some interview that he always tries to come up with a new style & flow I started to appreciate him even more...Sorry, I'm really tired right now, so my replies propably doesn't make any sence

[Bistnal]

I think he's just gotten better. I mean his flow was good on the other albums (not including Encore ) and you could rap along Fa-Q said. But on Relapse....his flow has no doubt gotten a million times better. It's like he's a professional becoming even better and untouchable. IMO there's not that many rappers that keep changing their flow and getting better like he does. I'm barely able to keep up with him sometimes just listening. Even though I admit I would like a few less rapid fire flow on songs, it's still awesome. Plus even though content wise Relapse was lacking, I had new respect for him when in one of the interviews (don't know which one) he mentions that he chose beats that CHALLENGED him to improve his flow...like a true artist should, improve and challenge themselves. Now if only he would try the same for content...hopefully he does on R2.

yea hes style has changed but its still gr8

[GoodGirlsGetGutted]

"Oh, I liked Al Pacino in The Godfather, but he had that obnoxious accent in Scarface. The movie was alright, but Pacino's accent just ruins it for me."
"Meryl Streep's old work like The Deer Hunter was good, but that fake accent in Sophie's Choice was really annoying. The director should have slapped the fuck out of her and told her to speak normal."

I used to balk when my seniors would say that our generation is unintelligent and cruel.
Now I'm starting to agree with them.

[Emadyville]

His flow is better than ever, no fuckin doubt.

yeah I agree, still think TES was his best flows, that album seemed flawless to me
"Flow almost flawless" -Business

Sidenote: was in target today and Relapse was at a special discounted price for a limited time, not sure why, and was only a dollar less

[slimsoxshady]

Encore: Obnoxious accent, less energy in his rhythmes than ever

Other than Ass Like That, theres no accent. He didn't develop his current accent until We Made You came out.

all i have to say about new flows is forever.

Perfect analysis.

agreed

[taurmauk]

My two favorite flows are the slowish but powerful (and by that I don't mean angry, but more, you can tell he means what he is saying). The perfect example of this is Verse 3 of "My Dad's gone Crazy". Is not fast, its not angry, but its just slick and powerful.

My favorite is his rapid slick dark raps like Stay Wide Awake Verse 1. I mean, really, I'm pushed to find a verse that runs off the tongue so perfectly when your rapping to it.... Marshal Mathers LP is my favorite Em album by far.... But saying that, I think the 1st verse of stay wide awake is the best he has ever done (with Verse 3 of Lose Yourself up there).

[EminemIVLife]

Yes that first verse on SWA is a personal favourite of mine too. I was seriously tripping (in a good way) when I first heard it.
