Aug 28, 2025 We should probably tell em he can take his merch and non active a--- and eat a fat d-ck too. f--- out here bro drop new music or get lost
Aug 28, 2025 Wdym. This song is all modern Eminem. Fred wreck collabed with Eminem on it, no studio tricks. Cleanest production in years
Aug 28, 2025 I don’t get the love for I’m Sorry. The sample is class, but the content and the overused theme of a toxic relationship are just boring. I reckon he has hundreds of variant songs like that. I also don’t believe for a second that it was originally meant to be the first single from Recovery. That would have made three singles from Recovery all about toxic love songs, lol. Eminem always likes to start an album with a lead single that sets the overall theme and tone of the record which he almost always nails and Not Afraid captures that perfectly. There’s no way I’m Sorry as a lead single would have done that.
Aug 28, 2025 He just dropped something better, and I'm talking bout the song not the temporary tattoos.
Aug 28, 2025 Not sure if it ever got mentioned either but I 100% remember @M Solo saying Eminem had an unreleased song from Recovery era that samples a classic rock song, many many years ago. If my memory serves me right I’m sure some people at the time speculated that it was Gimme Shelter.
Aug 28, 2025 Yep. Supposedly 6.5 minutes long, too. There was also another retirement track with Dido called Time To Stop. I know that person was accurate as well because the individual who told me about them also gave me the We Made You title months before anybody else had it. I want to say it was in January of 2009 or so. JFC I can't believe that was almost 17 years ago at this point
Aug 28, 2025 The intro and outro has some of that. You could easily add it towards the end of each verse.
Aug 28, 2025 This song is insane. I take back any reservations I had about the first two verses being anything less than top-drawer prime Eminem. The beginning of the third verse, too. The rest, while still fiery AF, seems at times like a placeholder for a more polished and concise revision he never got around to making, and reminds me a bit of the third verse of No Apologies. The hook too is great even though it reminds me of the LY demo.
Aug 28, 2025 The song really emphasizes to me that he tries way too hard these days, although he’s learning to relax a bit with DoSS. Everybody’s Looking At Me makes his rapping sound effortless while still being good whereas a lot of his modern music sounds like he’s constantly trying to prove to you that he’s the best rapper of all time. The problem is not everybody looks at the best rapper of all time as someone who can cram the most syllables and rhymes into a line. And a lot of Eminem’s pop audience simply doesn’t give a s--- about who the best rapper is, they just want music that sounds good.
Aug 28, 2025 Eminem making the same music now that he did 25 years ago wouldn’t work. It would come off as forced, cringe, and just flat out fail. What makes Eminem stand out from 99% of musicians is how he has evolved throughout his career; for better or worse, he has always switched it up and experimented with countless sounds, tones, and styles. Every album, for the most part, sounds completely different from the others, and very few artists can say that after a 30-year career. I imagine he still has the mindset of always wanting to be the best rapper, even 25 years ago, it’s just that what defines “the best” has changed over the years.
