UNPOPULAR OPINION: EMINEM ALBUMS ARE BASICALLY NERD RAP PORN
 

that’s basically all it is

rhyming words for the sake of rhyming words

little substance

no idea why so many of you enjoy that shit ?

nerd rap porn

this is not an unpopular opinion

this is facts

Yeah he sucks

i dont think so

seems ur in the minority here

care to elaborate?

everyone knows if youre a white nerd, lyrically, em is the best there ever was, is and will be. anyone who thinks otherwise just doesnt subscribe to the sole hyper-technical (and depressingly narrow) definition of lyricism prevalent within the context of hip hop. like do you even rap god?

refreshing to see three white people before me not masturbate over em tbh. youre all a credit to your pan-ethnic race.

plot once lost a battle to deliciousgirl btw so he is subhuman and all opinions he will express therein are null and void.

lmao lost a battle to alcoholism and employment also IIRC

still interested to hear his opinion tho

Well I think Ems multies have nuances and are kinda meta,
as in they referenace themselves or previous lyrics Em has spit.
Also they seem perfect in a way when he spits them the way he does
Which noone else could which makes them also kinda meta..

Window pain

Em’s aged terribly too. What’s with that beard he been sporting? I barely recognised him

Say no to drugs, kids. SMH

ill eventually get around to listening to it but yea i dunno. he just doesn't make good music and i don't see the point in listening to it.

Eminem sucks

Lolz at me losing to Dg Lars...
I mean if I recall correct I called her an Atm, as in ass-to-mouth,
flipped with a money-teller (Automatic teller machine)
My bar was dope hers was ass..
the voters were ass, I think Muzzle voted for her??

Define ‘substance’

5/5 thread title
Post content could use work though

Everyone likes to hate what’s popular. It’s been uncool to like Eminem since The Real Slim Shady. 8 Mile made it even worse. He’s one of the best rappers ever, but also the highest selling artists period since SSLP released. The volume of fans makes it easy to lump them all together, despite the diversity of those who like his music.

It’s corny to geek out over his lyricism. Even though most of the people here are writers who rhyme as a hobby. Oh the irony.

He's been on a downward descent since Encore. But in his defense, you rap for 20+ years you've touched on about every subject at least once. I also think the world is too PC for the late 90s, early 2000s Eminem so he had no choice to adapt and lost so much of What made him Eminem to begin with.

Em is now a textcee who got a record deal.


This album tho is up to par with Kamikaze. I came into this album with the same bias most have of em these days. But if I’m being completely honest. This was a good album. Em did his thing

Em has two good albums

I don't get the no substance part, he has moments like that but typically has plenty of songs with substance, but nerd rap porn is quite a good way of describing it. I'm in to the formation of rhymes, all of my favourite rappers are rappers who do clever things with words and rhyme in the most unique ways. That's why Eminem is one of my favourite rappers.

He definitely has it in him to make some very bad music, but the new album is very good...there are a few skippable tracks, but it's solid.

the production is terrible.

his pens probably never been better. its just draining to hear. i tried giving this album a thorough listen and just couldn't do it. looked up a tracklist of the producers too and its a who's who of "who?'s" and the alchemist collab might be the worst shit on it. wonder how involved he was.

but word there is no denying his skill but listening to his shitty overused double time flows and in and out delivery is fucking taxing. the black thought verse is ruined on a shitty synthy garbage beat thrown together by d12 alum mr. porter who's capable of bangers but its like em just wanted qtip and thoughts name attached to this more than caring if its a dope song.

the only thing i hate about eminem is every time he drops something someone says its dope and i know i have to listen to it to see if it is dope, and im left thinking wtf.

im left with the conclusion that eminem isn't for me. he's like an insanely talented classical guitarist. more technically proficient than the majority of guitarists, but i don't care about classical guitar enough to sit and enjoy an album of it.

Em da gawdddddd

I mean... Ya


Pac though>>>>>

Black Thought bodied that track tho.

Black Thought is the best rapper ever.

Fight me.

But again...I just want to remind everyone that Eminem said 'I ball out like Bushwick Bill'

When they ask me who's the best? Eminem
Who's my favourite? Black Thought
But who's the best? It's Eminem

Nobody out there is a better rapper.

why did he just keep digging his legacy into the grave?


take andre 3k, who says he hasn't put anything out cuz he doesnt feel as hungry, that he can't live up to his first original shit and doesnt wanna tarnish his legacy


WHY EM

WHY DID U DO THIS
fuck

I think i agree with this.. I really like royce though. Hes just a hood version of em frillz

IDC about rap albums I care about text battles only

Good to know.


So when you’re in Miami you’re better off hitting up I’ll nika

If Nas woulda made the sing "darkness" hip-hop heads would call it the best track of all-time

This new Eminem album is his best sincle mmlp

You don't exist to me.

EM is dope. But I only ever enjoy 1, maybe 2 tracks off of his albums tops. Nothing more. I could never listen to an entire album of his because it gets redundant. He’s dope, tho.

his pen game is definitely ridiculous, but I get what @uh-oh is saying. he even acknowledges and references that he's never gonna top what he's already done, but he definitely hasn't lost it. to be honest, I enjoyed the way he flowed on that Fat Joe track more than what he did on this album. he just sounded more relaxed on that song, like he wasn't even trying that hard and it still delivered smoothly. the dude loves what he does, and at the end of the day, it's a hobby for us all- writers that is.

What’s your top 5 albums released last year?

The expectations people place on shit these days is out of control. It’s a fucking hip hop record. He’s rhyming words? lol Stop the presses. Rapper rhymes words. No substance? How many times you listen to an album (you don’t like) before making this hot take? Once? Half a time? Whole world hungry to hear what someone else thinks about a rap album like Jesus came down and rewrote the Bible or something.

Nerd rap porn lol That shit bodey posted a thread about is nerd rap porn. If anything Em is lyricist porn, and it’s weird a site full of rhyme writers would be low on lyricism.

Tldr - read it ignore me

Y'all retarded

This Eminem album has substance

His music is good, great even. It takes a lot of skill to weave those multi-syllabic rhymes around. His songs are very well done; very good in craft. His flow is really well done.

I think he's a really good rapper.

Did your 8th grade English teacher never say to not be repetitive?

Lars cracks me up!

Mostly fire, few tracks I skip now.... replay value will run out soon I fear, as with kamikaze

20 tracks (few skits) was excessive

Now here's to LL, Big L and Del
K-Solo, Treach, and G Rap
DJ Polo, Tony D, ODB, Moe Dee, Run-DMC
Ed O.G., and EPMD, D.O.C., Ice-T, Evil Dee
King Tee, UTFO, and Schoolly D, PE, and BDP
YZ and Chi-Ali, Rakim and Eric B., they were like my therapy
From B.I.G. and Paris, Three Times Dope, and some we'll never see, and PRT
N.W.A and Eazy-E, and D-R-E was like my GPS
Without him, I don't know where I'd be
