    Cool song. Not every song has to be serious so the corny bars doesn't really bother me on a song like this. Sounds like he was having fun making it.

    The mixing is s--- tho. Idk if it's just because I haven't listened with headphones but the beat is loud af. Can barely hear the vocals on my phone speakers. As I said tho, might be better with headphones.

    Let me post my quick thoughts before I read the comments.

    Not mad at it. Clever wordplay that I enjoyed. Flow stayed on track even though you can tell he wanted to use his “Rap God Flow” in certain parts. Lol

    Overall I like it.

    My only concern is I hope……….. I hope, content wise there is a new direction for his album. Or, at least a different concept.

    I can just chalk this up to being another addition to the “Motivational Em Playlist”. But, at the same time it’s probably not which concerns me.

    We’ve heard this song 1,000 times already. I enjoy it but I hope a different direction is coming for his album

    Again, good track. I’ll be adding it to my library. It’s just a soundtrack song so I hope y’all are not taking this too seriously. Lol

    Yeah, it's just a random song. So are we free to s--- on it or is that too much for your delicate Stanley sensibilities?

    I just hope it will end up with a surprise album release tomorrow but it won't happen ... always happy with a new eminem song ! And I agree with some of you that the beat is too high compared to his voice sometimes... but anyway always enjoyable to have new songs

    Personally, I don't think the song is horrible, just horribly mediocre. A nice third verse doesn't change the robotic (and at this point generic) flow, the uneventful beat or that void of a hook (and I usually like hearing CeeLo Green on tracks). I'm also surprised to see some saying that this is Em "having fun". To me this track sounds soulless and by the numbers. But hey, if you like it, more power to you.

    Skimming through the comments and I’m not surprised. Lol

    I knew this would be taken serious.

    I stated my concerns but I’m not doing a deep dive on a soundtrack song for a Elvis movie.

    Now, I’ll add this. If this is added to his album it better be a bonus track and not intergraded into the album. Then I would be concerned.

    Also I seen someone said earlier this song is definitely in the MMLP2/Revival section of his discography and I couldn’t agree more. Maybe a splash of Side B too. Lol

    It's ok I guess? Em's voice sounds too quiet tho, idk might be my headphones, other than that it's fine but I don't think I'll be replaying it much

    Love it. There’s a couple cringe lines but there’s definitely fire as well . I’d give it a 7/10

    Eminem’s flow reminds me of remember the name

    way better than remember the name the flow there was boring. You more mean the voice reminds you of Remember the name I guess.

    I rarely trash Em songs. I liked most of what he releases except when it comes to collabs and soundtracks these days :Em6:

    As soon as I heard the snippets I knew I wouldn't like it, it's just not for me.
