Jan 5, 2015 Eminem is a pretty divisive artist regarding what his best material is but I honestly cannot fathom how any Eminem fan wouldn't like the hook on Deja Vu (or the song in general). I don't think there's ever been a clearer best song on any album in the history of music than Deja Vu on Relapse.
Jan 5, 2015 I honestly think that calling female singers to do hooks in his songs is the only way for him to get close to a girl. I don't know if it's payed off, it probably did though. Marshall's a player no matter how you look at it. When the hook's actually good (Liz Rodriguez/Rihanna) it's a win/win
Jan 5, 2015 That bridge game tho. I think he's slowly trying to turn himself into a singer/songwriter and hope that no one notices
Jan 5, 2015 Tbh I think it's a matter of confidence. He features guest singers on his hooks and uses practically the same format (verse/hook/verse/hook/verse) all the time, he used punchlines heavily etc. Instead of trying to make a trend, he follows trends, and that's a limitation to whatever creativity he has left. Another problem is that his new fanbase consists of Rihanna fans, that could explain the Riri and other female singers. I think he'll manage to sound better in the next album and probably have less features than Recovery/MMLP2. He showed in Fine Line and that Cypher that he can rap his a--- off, and from the few songs that I've heard post MMLP2, that he doesn't have that many bad puns as in Recovery. He also made songs like Don't Front for his previous album, so maybe he'll try and do more stuff like this. So yeah, the problem with his hooks is part of his problem since his comeback. edit: Berzerk is a very good recent hook imo
Jan 5, 2015 His hook game just followed the rest of his abilities- fell way off an is now below average to mediocre with occasional flashes of his former greatness
Jan 5, 2015 you might be slow but that n----- fell off a while back. He makes great songs here and there but because of how much mediocre material he has put out since 05 it drastically changes my opinion on his newest s---
Jan 5, 2015 list of truly mediocre album tracks? most people should only have a handful so please don't say this whole cd or that whole album or these twenty features
Jan 5, 2015 almost everything on xv except for Fine Line and GOF MMLP2 assholoe, so much better, survival, The Monster, Stronger Than I Was, Bezerk, Recovery Wont Back Down, WTP, LTWYL, Your Never Over,unititled Relapse i really shouldnt havee to explain my self on this one Encore yeah i shouldnt have to explain this either cause we both know its garbage
Jan 5, 2015 k there are a couple tracks there i can't stand either except are you sure you're appreciating how many different situations (his fans, his exes, his parents, his daughters, his peers and so on) he's describing at the exact same time with every last line of some of the songs you mentioned?
