    We can all pretty much agree that the first 3 songs for both of these albums are fire. Kamikaze boasts an opening consisting of “The Ringer”, “Greatest”, and “Lucky You”. Meanwhile MTBMB has a line up of “Premonition”, “Unaccommodating”, and “You Gon Learn”.

    How is this a question?

    and premotion is one of the weakest Em’s intros ever. Unnecessary girl singing a corny intro and short as f---. Cool encore type beat and some good lines but you cant compare this to the ringer

    Kamikaze. Powerhouse 3 tracks.

    "The Ringer" is an all-time top Em track too.

    I thought the hook was fun. It was no top tier hook or anything. It was just a fun song

    The ringer...

    First time I heard it I was in total shock. Eminem was cocky. Flowing great. It was a moment that set the tone for the album

    The delivery and flow had that magic moment which used to always come with new Em too, where you haven't heard this style before and can't quite decipher it.

    Had that with 'Relapse' too.

    I remember hearing 'The Ringer' in work and it sounded almost like babble at first, like I knew it was good but I was like 'wtf??', such a great feeling, when you get to then peel the layers off as you listen and it becomes clearer.

    Almost had an aneurism because i thought you put “MBDTF”

    anyways, “Greatest” is far and away the worst song on Kamikaze, so MTBMB

    Kami because of how surprising it was. Never ever ever thought I’d see Em in that lane ever again. I still feel surprised every time I hear the ringer. Moment he starts he sounds a bit like the old Em

    Shame because some of the lines in Greatest are great.

    “My basal ganglias an A to the K, get your a--- sprayed like bidets, breaking your legs, eight different ways, ankle to waist” was one of my favourite lines on the album. I could hear nasal SSLP Eminem delivering those lines easy.

    It also has 1 of my favourite schemes on the project:

    “f--- that, I'm finna hit back
    'Til I run out of gunpowder and split the scene
    Hold the mic similar to pistol, squeeze
    And I s---t from the hip when I grip them things
    And my lips are the clips, got the sig lit like it's nicotine
    Trigger me and Slim gets mean (Brr!)
    Bars are like bullets when I spit them schemes
    That's why I call the MFers M16s (Em’s 16s)”
