    >someone makes a serious thread questioning eminem's recent decline in a certain area (this time being hooks)

    >csw and friedschizophrenic are so lost that they resort to being sarcastic/acting like the topic isn't serious

    Rinse & repeat

    Probably because you would say something r-----ed like "Kanye's never been good at hooks, he uses pop singers" whereas the OP here made some genuine points and asked a geniuene question

    He really does have some horrible f---ing opinions. That or he's one of the best trolls ever. Deja Vu > Recovey aside from GTC and Space Bound.

    Still don't think Deja Vu is even Top 5 on Relapse let alone one of his best songs ever.

    On the topic of the thread though, I actually like the female singer and sample hooks that he's used in recent years. He still comes with a couple gems of his own though. I loved the Seduction hook.

    this is a few bars I came up with
    "Honestly I'm anonymous, but Anomaly's recognized
    which let's me get between her thighs
    I peak left at her bedside table that's where my record lies"

    Drama Setter was AMAZING. That was 2005 though. I think we're talkin post-hiatus. The Talk To Me hook he did for Jeezy was pretty good.

    1. Beautiful
    2. Careful What You Wish For
    3. Stay Wide Awake
    4. Same Song & Dance
    5. Underground

    Side note: Em did alot of good hooks on Relapse/Refill. Much more so than Recovery & MMLP2 when he kinda backed away from doing them.
