    We get. Trust me. We all understand just fine. But slim isn’t exactly being very controversial here. Just saying the word r----- and midget a bunch of times. If you’re gonna in go all in. Don’t half a--- it cause you’re too scared to actually stir s--- up. In that case just make real songs cause his flow is waaaay better. If he could harness those flows into real songs that aren’t about midgets the replay value would be way higher IMO.

    Na, Shady comes back and kills Em on Tobey. The last song is a cry for help. But some lyrics also show that there is still hope and Em won't go down. This is how you lead upto the next LP.

    Alright, 12 hours and 5 full listens later I’m back. Def jumped around the thread to see some reactions but certainly didn’t scroll 1,800 pages. Overall consensus seems great!

    For me it is a b-----r. Easily my favorite Em album since the trifecta. Possibly my 4th favorite replacing Recovery. Little too early to tell. But after spending almost half of the last 13 hours with it on repeat, I’m not tired of it yet so that’s a good sign.

    It does have some issues though, mainly the overuse of Caitlyn Jenner, “PC,” Chris Reeves and trans attacks. I have no issue with him attacking those things, but he does it a LOT. I like the inclusion of the Encore throwaway but it kinda feels out of place. Does anyone know if that’s a straight up transplant or if he re-recorded it and found his encore voice again?

    Other small things that are minor bothers - transition from Tobey to Guess Who’s Back…why are the steps included on both? And having Save Me end the record. I had high hopes for that but with it being so close to Temporary (which I loooooove and cried listening to) it just felt overkill. Also a minor continuity thing…if Em and Slim combine in Houdini, why is he immediately tied up in the following skit?

    With all that said it is a fantastic album. Right now my top 5 is probably -

    Habits
    Guilty Conscience 2
    Fuel
    Antichrist
    Renaissance

    Thanks Em for this masterpiece.

    I literally paused multiple times because i couldnt believe some of the outrageous things he said on here in 2024

    i swear nothing pleases you. You may not think “r-----” is bad in 2024 but trust me it is..and he doubled down on it for a full song

    the f---? He said chris died outta spite so they cant release a song
    He said f--- blind ppl
    He imitated deaf ppl
    He made a song about fat shaming
    He made a song about midgets


    The f--- do yall want u c----?

    Road rage was really weird listen for me lol. Made me cringe a little for him. Doesn’t he understand some people are born genetically fat? Like obese. And people have eating disorders that are just like being an addict or alcoholic. He was lecturing fat a----s to lift weights and not eat food lol. Wasn’t even dissing them. Just telling them how not to be fat.
