    This argument would make more sense if we were talking about work in progress of a new album

    But, violated? Over 20+ year old recordings? Come on lmao

    I think Renaissance being from 05 is cap.

    Writing is very modern Em. 'soon as I quit giving a f--- I started to sell a bit'... that's 100% 2024 Em.

    Actually I can see how the very opening segment is... the rhyming isn't as complex, and he's even talking about him dangling the baby over the balcony which was 04/05... weird.

    But from then on I think he carried on writing:

    You aren't tamin' it, sharp pain in the heart
    Aimin' a bar, chamber to carve names in it
    Start sprayin' and start ravin' on beats, stark ravin' it
    You're at arm's length, you're in harm's way of it
    'Bout to show your a--- why I'm still a pain in it


    < That's modern Em. He wasn't writing like that then.

    But yeah weird he choose to go back to so much 04/05 s---... I bet it's because he can still do the tonality, bc we know much of the stuff was re-written and re-done, and not AI as some claim like on Antichrist. But, thas maybe why he didn't go back to 99/00 bc he probably can't do those tonalities. But that was true Slim Shady era not 04.

    But yeah maybe he went back to some s--- he knew he could re-do tonally, and to try get in the same mindset for the album.

    Yeah the very opening bars about dangling a baby over the balcony? Makes sense, bc it's less complex, no puns, and is talking about an 04/05 event. So, maybe he started with s--- from then to get back into the vibe, and then kept writing... using it as a jumping off point, and I bet using 04/05 bc he knew he could still do that tonality, wheras maybe not 99/00. Why he used AI for those parts on it.

    Does anyone know when the super drugged up deep voice started? I mean the "king mathers" leaks and s---, it seems to be post Proof's passing since most of this s--- from '05 doesn't sound like that at all

    Did you not read I said the first verse meaning the opening is from 05. I didn’t say the whole song.

    You do realize that was the point of death of slim shady right…. It’s a legacy album. Encapsulates all his era’s, flows with nostalgia.

    Another thing I've just noticed - the Straight From The Lab 3 page on Genius is gone and all the songs are individually separated. I think Em's team don't want this known as Straight From The Lab 3 or something, seems odd why it'd get removed.

    What f---ing downfall are we talking about here, genius?
    Relapse? f---ing cult classic. Refill? Dude, finest verses of that era.
    Recovery? Oh my f---ing god dude, this was bananas, brand new Em.
    Shady 2.0 era? Dude, we got some heavy lyrical masterminds on board - Eminem and Slaugterhouse and of course Yelawolf, which was peak artist of the label back then.
    MMLP2? Dude, his writing on this album was PEAK. I wish I could relive MMLP2 release era.
    ShadyXV and Southpaw? Eminem on his lyrical s---, but some songs were great (Fine Line, Guts Over Fear etc)
    Revival? Okay, this was meh, but still a very few dope songs on it.
    Kamikaze? Dude, do I have to say anything about it, dude?
    MTBMB both sides? Dude, Shady back on the right track.
    TDOSS? DUDE. THIS IS IT, EM IS BACK.

    DUDE DUDE DUDE.
