Jun 19, 2020 Yeah Kamikaze had the opposite effect on me from MTBMB where at first I thought it was cool cuz it stuck to a theme and was concise but after a few spins there was no reason for me to play back Em being mad about current rap again lol. With MTBMB I thought it was awful my first play because holistically it's a huuuuuuge mess and thematically it doesn't really work. But after another couple listens I came more around to some of it on a song-by-song basis and it's more Em showing his love for rap and collaborative nature instead of being mad that playboi carti exists.
Jun 19, 2020 Imagine not liking Stepping Stone Every song except Normal, Kamikaze and Nice Guy (not counting Venom cause that was for a movie) are at least a 7 quality wise.
Jun 19, 2020 Kamikaze is some of his best work since his return from toilet. He also came up with his Slim Shady nickname while sitting in the toilet. Well, that makes sense. Perhaps he even recorded the entire album in the toilet cubicle. d---. Classic.
Jun 19, 2020 @M Solo i can kinda get that u like ringer/fall and dont like the rest, except stepping stone. Perfect song imo
Jun 19, 2020 Don't quote me you f---ing dweeb. I don't even know who the f--- you are. And Stepping Stone would have been great... in 2007. 2018? Like you, nobody knew who the h--- D12 was so it was worthless.
Jun 19, 2020 Kamikaze is cool in as far as it sounds like he was finally making the music that he wanted to again after three albums of vapid nothingness, but it doesn’t sound as natural or fun as it would on MTBMB, almost like he was forcing it
Jun 19, 2020 Yes. I agree. I love Recovery but there are so many reasons that made that album great for sales. Eminem’s popularity. Eminem’s age. The buzz for him coming back to rap in 09/10. The type of music that was mainstream at the moment and a large etcetera. Look at revival is the perfect example. Some recovery type songs but in 2017. I think Em will never be so popular again and it’s not because the quality of music. Maybe great reactions like the days that Rap God or Kamikaze dropped.
Jun 19, 2020 I’m sure I’ve said before that I think MTBMB is a step in the right direction and the most natural he’s sounded since Relapse
Jun 20, 2020 You’re a f---ing clown. Give me ur number so we can square up. You don’t know who the f--- I am.
