    Spatula Relapse is a masterpiece

    Dec 24, 2016
    Ever since Berzerk was first released I quickly got tired of it and every time I'd listen to MMLP2 I'd skip it without thinking. But couple of days ago I decided to give it another listen and it felt refreshing. It's a great first single. The lyrics aren't really mind blowing but they work well, and as an upbeat single it's exactly what it needed to be after Just Lose It or We Made You.

    But the greatest thing about it is the chorus. It's amazing.

    All in all, a really refreshing single and a fun song. All Eminem's first singles have the same effect on me where I get tired of them quickly and when the album is out I always skip them, but I'm glad I rediscovered Berzerk.

    And don't forget how everyone was crazy when the teaser first came out. Man, that got me so excited about the album.

    tbh, it turned me off Em when first came out. I was new fan just discovered MMLP and TES... so I expected another Cleanin out my closet/Real Slim Shady

    So when I heard him screaming on non-understandable flow over dusty beat, I stopped caring.

    However, it grew a lot on me, especially after reading the subtle meaning behind every line

    the 'chica, pow, chica, wow-wow' was annoying until I knew it's shout out to Kid Rocks biggest single


    Now, some listens I think it's 10/10 classic s---.. and sometimes it sounds just bad

    it keeps changing, idk

    I liked the song, but think it was a very bad choice for a single. Gave off a totally wrong vibe for the album. Here I was, thinking i was getting some LL, Beasty Boys, NWA, Public Enemy type of album and what I got was MMLP meets Recovery, which equals to MMLP minus 1. Absolutely no MMLP2.

    Wasn't even that bad an album, bad guy really brought me back to MMLP vibes, but it was just so badly advertised.

    Dread or Alive Kamikaze should've been released 3 years ago

    This is actually very true, the problem everyone has is with the production.....
    h---, that's the problem with the entire album.

    So because you didnt recognize half the references and the lyrics were too deep on some ocasions for you to understand you just quit listening?

    Srs Q^

    I think everything on mmlp2 is understandable, i think thats actually one of eminems talents in his ability to spit quick, is that he is actually able to pronounce words in a way that when you hear it you know what hes saying even if it is fast.

    The rapgod little fast part for example, that s--- is perfectly understandable imho. You can pick each word out individually in the flow rap them slow speed it up n it just doesnt come out like it does on the record. It just doesnt happen.


    On topic

    Berzerk solid af single with some pop culture thrown in lil bit dated but i mean hes an old man what can ya do. Love the sample

    I always like the live performances when they do that extended intro.

    Feel like that would have enhanced the album version too.

    It is a great song. Always loved this part of the chorus: We're gonna rock this house until we knock it down
    So turn the volume loud
    . I always loved his rhymes in this line.

    I love the song. Honestly it's aged better than a lot of MMLP2 in my opinion and would probably land in my top 3 or at least top 5

    Which is weird because I didn't like it all that much when it dropped. More so because it wasn't what I was expecting I guess. But as time went on it grew on me like crazy. Rarely do I skip it.

    I'd like another high energy track like this from Eminem soon. Too much serious sounding stuff lately. Need a refresher.
