    I mean you literally just pointed out exactly what Eminem does for the past 25 years since the Slim Shady Lp. Every song on that first studio album is a drug Joke rap. Like that is Eminem. Only difference now is his message is warning his audience instead of clowning around on songs like My Fault, My Name is, Rock Bottom. Ect. “I feel like I’m walking a tightrope without a circus net, I’m a nervous wreck. About to pop a percept to reverse this debt. Ect. Like the message and rapping is the same. Eminem is just maturing now that he is 50 and sober for like 15 years. So what tone are you talking about? This is classic Em for me tbh

    I think making a song warning your audience has no need for a line like that especially if the entire thing is not tongue in cheek like his more playful songs. Either way it's not a huge deal, it's one line in an otherwise really solid verse that still shows he can stay on topic if he's motivated enough.

    He said it after the hare simile.

    I personally like ad libs when they add an extra texture to the verse in areas but saying “yeah” “what?” “nah” & “why?” After every line is completely unnecessary & becoming as weird as Tech N9ne’s CHA lol

    It doesn’t ruin anything just quite distracting, at least he didn’t say “get it?” After an obvious joke this time.

    How does he "clown around" on Rock Bottom? Wtf. That's one of his most serious songs.

    Okay that Lace It hook is actually stuck in my head though. Juice was so good at hooks. I think they put a little too much autotune on it though

    Sorry but I have to correct you. It’s a top 5 song for me.

    I feel like I'm walkin' a tight rope without a circus net
    Poppin' Percocet, I'm a nervous wreck
    I deserve respect but I work a sweat for this worthless check
    I'm 'bout to burst this TEC at somebody to reverse this debt

    f---ing flames. Man I love SSLP

    Yeah it's f---ing r-----ed, he can't help himself n just keeps ruining verses with it. Like, was that stupid rabbit out a hat line SO GOOD he just HAD to say it here? It's terrible, and terribly written. And on such a subject-matter... it's just stupid.

    The flow of Lace It reminds me of What If I Was Gay.

    His verse on Lace It is amazing and the song is very good overall, Juice on the hook is catchy af too. If it got a proper release I could see it doing well on charts but it feels like the release was very forced and Eminem's team didn't even acknowledge it for some reason, still very happy we got this Eminem again, he is 2/2 with his features this year
