    I’ve always said The Ringer is definitely one of his best songs. It was so impressive to see late in his career but I have to have Still Don’t Give A f--- in the top 5. Also Stay Wide Awake.

    Ice pick in the penis line or whatever makes this song top 3 all time. The wordplay is immaculate.

    Not just sonically but also in terms of songwriting and concepts. Drug Ballad, The Way I Am, Stan, White America, Sing For The Moment, Rock Bottom, My Fault are just better songs imho. It's all subjective though.

    Plus, sonically, b---- Please 2 and Without Me >>>>>>

    Ngl though, The Ringer does show more technical mastery than many of his prime songs. I'll say that much.

    He's up there but I think Lupe and Pharoahe Monch are the best at wordplay.

    I have no problem putting The Ringer in my top 10, but I don’t know if I can say it’s his best.

    k--- You has and will always be my favorite opener, but taking into account the surprise drop of Kamikaze, The Ringer probably has to be his best. I think I lost my mind hearing that for the first time.

    Ya, The Ringer off the bat, as a surprise drop, after a really disappointing album, was great tbh. Good intro

    Why did Joyner say What if was gay Em's writing was on par with Stan. Do you guys agree?

    Koloo your opinion is always cringy.. It's a good song but I think Never Love Again is better. It's a revist of Slim Shady LP And Relapse 2 And Stan mixed in one

    The Ringer isn't even top 50. Beat felt really bland compared to the production on MTBMB.
    Premonition is better. Immaculate production. A banging a--- Dre beat. Top 3 Eminem intro.

    No offence Koolo but notice how eminem has flow on every song you mentioned except ringer? I mean it's not a bad a song and flow is better than most but it sounds too forced to me. Lyrics are actually good but from memory it won't last over 5 years where as other songs you mentioned lasting 10+ years
