    So i've seen some of you say that Eminem flowed well on Untouchable. Comments like "Well he flowed well on that first part, overall his flow was great". b---- cmon

    Do we really need to discuss things as basic as flow and delivery when it comes to a veteran rapper? That's probably the last thing we discuss when we hear a rap song. Unless the delivery was outstanding, it usually isn't the discussion point.

    For the last 4 years, everytime there is a new Eminem song my only concern is if his delivery will ruin it.

    Not worried about the beat, not worried about the hook, h--- i'm not even worried if i will particularly like the song, just as long as the flow and the vocals are consistent and not a f---in chore to listen to.

    To be honest, I'd rather hear a single as bad as "We Made You" than hear him change his flow and vocals 10 times in the span of 1 minute. It would at least be a relieve to hear something that sounds like actual music instead of a robot having a heart attack.

    People who aren't real fans of hip hop don't have the right to critique flow

    Flow went downhill with encore and has changed many times but has generally remained garbage for the most part

    And before stans come in here lying to themselves and claiming his flow is good, That's because you got EM's c--- blocking your ears. Everyone else hears it, other rappers have commented on it. It's a fact, not an opinion.

    Just waiting for the album to drop to see if i'm right about it being as bad as I think it is. Then I'll know for sure and be done with it.

    It has never been a problem until MMLP2 tbh. Never been a factor. At least I didn't hear anything out of the ordinary.

    Things did change tho. Accent (Relapse) Vocals (Recovery) but his flow pretty much remained similar imo

    My issue is consistency. HE switches it up way too often. It sounds like a different rappers comes in on Untouchable. f---ing annoying. Keep the same flow or switch once for the rest of the verse. Can't stand that s---.

    Nah it’s beeb trash well before mmlp2. That’s why when the select few songs over the years flow well they’re considered classics, ie the warning is great simply bc of the delivery and flow

    I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. I've never seen any problem with his flow until the last couple of years. Maybe it wasn't always great, but it never was a problem or not anything that I would notice at least.

    It just isn’t the flow that made him the best rapper in the world

    Literally nothing wrong with his flow. Not every flow has to be predictable and remain the same throughout the song. And there's nothing wrong with pausing/breaking either. Not every flow has to be like Big Pun

    What's that even supposed to mean lol

    His flow is s--- now. s--- to the point that his songs aren't even listenable or even worth relistening to again once you've heard them.

    Let's put things in perspective. Lemme post this post hiatus track as an example. Perfect beat timing and delivery. Steady and consistent. Overall just very enjoyable to listen to.



    Now go listen to that Walk On Water or Untouchable garbage or any of the material he's put out in the last few years. If you can't hear how off he sounds compared to the beat and the overall rythm of the song, I really don't know what else there is to say but to get your ears checked.

    To be clear, i'm not shi--ing on the content of these songs, i'm strictly talking about his delivery which makes it hard to actually enjoy them.

    the issues with his flow recently are massively over exaggerated
