    I am glad that The Ringer is getting the praise it deserves. That's the opener that really got me as hyped as in the old days

    That's definitely true for the most part. However, he is actually starting to sound good on the beat again and clearly isn't forcing too many syllables in a single bar now (ever since Kamikaze). Though your critique is genuine it doesn't fit The Ringer since he was actually flowing great on the song. That part after the beat switch sounds like something taken straight off The Eminem Show. So nah
    Coming back on topic, The Ringer is a great song, but definitely not even top 10.

    Drug Ballad
    Say Goodbye to Hollywood
    Deja Vu
    Brain Damage
    I'm Shady
    Murder, Murder
    Rock Bottom
    Just Don't Give a f---
    Marshall Mathers
    That underground s--- that he did with skam (365/old world disorder, I'm never sure what it's actually called lol but that verse is the prime example of Eminem at the height of his rhyming capabilities imo)

    Yeah I was talking about my personal top 10—Lose Yourself and Stan def have to be in there if we're talking about impact too. You could def make an argument for The Ringer being one of the most impactful Eminem songs because it ushered in this new, rejuvenated era.

    Lucky You reminds me so much of MMLP when he goes "Here before you way back, let's recap, way back, Mcs that, real havoc on tape decks."

    Please respond with something Rap wise that is topping this.

    And don’t make me SS my music in my phone. Lol. Em is my favorite and always will be but he isn’t the only Rapper I listen to. More power to those that only play him but me, nah.

    But again, please respond.

    My whole issue was the Book of Rhymes statement, not The Ringer per se. But there’s plenty of other top tier contenders over the past 3 years but I’d be here all day listing them.
