    Yup, I know it's another rappity-rap song from Em, but d---, I relistened to this song earlier today and it stuck with me.
    I think this song is really underrated.

    Your opinions on this song?

    Psychopath Killer and Vegas are dope, there's some terrible hooks throughout this projects but the verses are incredible. It delivered on the basis of it not being a solo album.

    I find it really over-hated, I can't think of any bad tracks, I enjoy them all. Em snaps on the title track, 'Right For Me' and more, Slaughterhouse k--- 'Y'all Ready Know', even Yelawolf had good songs, the greatest hits disc contains classics such as 'You Don't Know' and 'Cry Now', good compilation.

    The question is about the song Shady XV, not the whole album

    Sorta like it, although it has in my opinion Em's worst line/s ever

    "My next whor-'s gonna have mechanical arms
    That'll jack me off with a lotion dispenser with a motion sensor"

    I really like Fine Line and GOF. those two are the ones I often go back too. I liked Y'all Ready Know as well and I think it's one of the best songs on there.

    Listened to Psychopath Killer again and I really wish Eminem used a better flow than what he used... it just seems so out of place compared to the other verses.

    Always been a fan of this. The beats not great but it doesn't really need to be. Some impressive word play and rhymes.

    The bit where he mentions Mac Miller/Action Bronson etc is dope.

    Rihanna/Pinnochio line aswell.
