    d---, I was just watching some ole videos on youtube from the Up In Smoke Tour. It's kind of crazy to hear EM perform without a backtrack.



    Nowdays he's basically lipsyncing over his old songs.

    Imagine him performing anything from his earlier albums without playback. His vocals are so f-----.

    Well he actually does that everytime. Last 3 concerts he wasn't so on point, but everytime he kills the stage.
    P.s. New Live Performances are way better, you can see he's sober and clear. His moves are spectacular, when he was on drugs he was so fixed on the same position for so long.

    I find it f---ing hilarious that he mimes the Forgot About Dre hook.

    The words are literally ‘but nothing comes out when they move their lips’

    There's a huge difference of voices. Anyway he doesn't mime, he sings with a little bit of tone.

    Because he used his breath to rap instead of jumping around on stage with playback being louder than his actual voice. Try rapping Forgot About Dre and it's hook with no playback. I'm pretty sure you couldn't do it while running around.

    I get that his voice changed. Not saying his new performances aren't good. He performs great for a guy in his mid 40s.

    He's using playback only for hooks and i think it's normal after spitting over 500 words a verse. His last concerts he was with no so much breath, but usually he has a lot of energy and raps till Lose Yourself
