    disclaimer: this song does not belong on an album called MMLP2, but when it stands alone i kinda like it

    it not only serves its purpose as a top radio single but it honestly is a great song, rihanna does rihanna things and eminem has 3 really good verses... good flow, layered parts of his vocals, and to top it off we got a really reminiscent video:



    it's honestly hard to think that he could still flow normally 3-4 years ago, what happened idk

    I thought it would get over 1 billion hits like LTWYL did on youtube but yeah fans didn't like Rihanna on the hook & it became pretty underrated. The video is 10/10 I still watch it occasionally

    Dread or Alive Kamikaze should've been released 3 years ago

    Yes it does. MMLP2's main theme was karma.

    I just re listened to love the way you lie part 2. How good the song is, the real classic of his second phase. Shows his new style where he doesn't urinate on anyone. Eminem of 2016-17 is so much below that. Recovery 2 would be amazing. Just call it differently.

    i think you misunderstand my point, anything with the "mmlp" in its title should not have a radio pop song in its tracklist

    My only real gripe is the shortness of each verse. And yes, that's one of his best music videos in a long time.

    well the song isn't, the video more-so is, i mean you could argue the whole slim shady v marshall theme is deserving but i just don't think radio singles should sit under the mmlp name, the album that had "the way i am" which was a whole response to his label wanting a radio hit

    True, but this is more of a mature MMLP album. So having a hit single like this fits perfectly.

    Ltwyl part 2 is one of the best verses of his comeback easily. The emotion is raw, the yelling is justified. Just great verse.

    Video one of his best ever

    Especially that roof-top caged Slim pissed-at-sober-Em with all the pills and the note which we don't get to read metaphor

    :sweatt:

    Sad that it appears he can't flow like this anymore
