Aug 26, 2025 at 4:13 PM What’s the forum consensus on Minato these days anyway? Is he more tolerated now? Whats this Eminem cosplay schtick he’s been doing? Do you all just allow it or sort of just ignore him and let him keep doing it because he’s a little bit special? (Reminder that this dude claimed he used to be in US Military btw, no wonder American army is an absolute s--- show of true). stolen valor!
Aug 26, 2025 at 4:39 PM The writing in places definitely doesn't live up to his own album standards at the time, but in some places it does. I find the song's overall rough draft/demo quality neat though, esp for prime Eminem (the at times seemingly incorrigible perfectionist). Kinda fits with the "I'm just a plain old guy" taunt. Honestly I prefer this style and sound to Business, or even Without Me. He should have kept going with it but I guess he felt it was too similar to MMLP. Yep, he's been doing this with pretty much every old song he's dusted off in recent years: Antichrist, Discombobulated, JBM, and Is This Love all have new vocals added to their original hooks. You might as well throw the Brand New Dance bridge in there too.
