    On the first verse. To me his pauses are irritating af. If you don't hear it it, only prooves it's a matter of sensibility and taste:
    Lately I really.... feel like(....)
    I sincerely.... apologise (...)
    I'm finally realising I need....help

    This. People should be lucky that Em is still around even after going through so much s--- and facing so much of flak. I bet everyone would be calling his s--- boring if he was still Slim Shady with his old flow, Dre and Bass beats. I love this new era of Shady that started with 2009 as he found a way to reinvent himself and surprise us Everytime. Massive a--- W buddy.

    Well, the sentences sound chopped af to me. The word fits. But it doesn;t matter, if he does his "real" choppy flow now, I'm okay with it, because I love his now flow since ShadyXV. It all sounds natural and pleasant to me.

    What ? Lol

    He’s flowing to the beat. That’s not a chopping flow. Even went back and am
    Playing it now. Thanks for reminding me how dope this song is.

    You're welcome. I don't mind people loving songs I don't love.

    You forgot he yells too much and tbh I never complained about any of these stuff I just love that he’s still around. Only thing I hated that’s not on your list is the accents on relapse

    Don’t say that he changes his flow every single time he has used this generic robotic awkward flow for every song out since mmlp2

    Out of all the complaints the most valid ones are the accent (atrocious) and the flow.
    Everything else is good for a punt but not an entire album worth.

    Although saying that, he has always had the stop and go flow. But it used to sound good.

    To be clear, rapping perfect did not ruin his status. It was the following 10 years of sub par rap (excluding Recovery) that did it...

    Dude, that ain't stop and go. He's riding the beat near perfect here (a bit behind at times).

    By stop and go I mean chopping words up mid-word to fit the beat.
