Aug 24, 2022 This. That's the only thing missing. It sounds like work more than fun for him. Sacrificing emotion for technicality.
Aug 24, 2022 Nope, that s--- is actually part of his music that feels soulless to me too. There’s just something about his music since 2010 that feels strange and I don’t know what it is or how to describe it. I didn’t really grow up listening to Em’s old music so it’s not like I’m nostalgic for that or anything. I’m not saying his new music is bad either. I think most of it is mediocre, with lots of gems as well. I know my explanation here might not make much sense, but that’s why I’m not a music critic lol. I’m not critiquing Em hoping he will see this, I’m just putting my thoughts out hoping some people can relate.
Aug 24, 2022 Yup. As soon as you start treating music like “fitting puzzle pieces together” you’ve lost it
Aug 24, 2022 True. Either this or that Chick-fil-a Kanye song. Would’ve loved to hear some vintage Marshall food bars about chicken sandwiches and refusing to serve them to gays in Slim Shady style with a Dr. Dre beat with funny voices and a cartoon music video
Aug 24, 2022 Don’t put your hopes up Remember that s--- Elvis song is produced by Dre seems like it’s gonna be another trash song by Em judging by the snippet
Aug 24, 2022 Yeah I'm not that hyped about it, Em's flow isn't what it should've been on a Kanye collab. At least it's something new in this drought but still, not what you would want from Em and surely not what you would want from a Kanye and Em feat.
Aug 24, 2022 But he normally does, that's why I said this is so lazy. First time he gets an Em verse and he most likely just bought the remix from Kanye since he wasn't going to use it anyway and asked Em's team for the ok. You see him playing the songs for the artists, picking the who goes on each song and them laying their verses sometimes even there with Khaled. I expected way more from an Em feature on a Khaled song tbh. Something like track 2 which may be dope or wack these days, but it's way more interesting.
