    Oh how I miss Em' layering his vocals. I'm not talking hooks, I'm talking verses. It gives me a f---in eargasm.

    I'm going to look dumb for saying this but what does layering mean?

    This is one of the major causes for his raps coming off very flat currently tbh

    I'll be honest and say it's not a huge thing for me. It probably would sound pretty bad if the layers weren't tight anyway. Like, they'd have to be tighter than they were on the Marshall Mathers LP otherwise it'd sound like a mess with his current voice.

    That's the thing he is lacking now. His "technical ability" is amazing. his fundamentals for writing a crazy verse with all of these wordplay and syllables are sound. he is a writing monster but on the other hand to be good in this rap game, you need to have a catchy voice and delivery and that's where I think he has fallen off. His voice doesn't catch my ear the same way old em did and much of it seems rushed now a days but back then he just rode the beat effortlessly.

    Yes this is it! But I think it's not his voice tho. It's his delivery. He has same voice he had on "The Warning" but he was riding the beat flawlessly that I can easily praise him as the untouchable goat but he is so obsessed to make complex rhymes wordplays double times etc. he is unable to realize that the songs losing its' listenability...
