    In music, each genre has icon(s) who revolutionized the genre and moved it forward. Sometimes it was a album or even just a single song that achieved this feat. While Eminem had certainly done a lot to change hip-hop and amaze music listeners worldwide, nothing could top his contribution to the "Longest Yard" soundtrack. Marshall's ability to balance emotion with lyrical ability is a big part of what made him such a success. But in 2005 he took it to a whole other level. A level that even A level lyricists in the game could only dream of. The song that did this was the career defining "My Ballz" featuring all black Eminem listeners worldwide, D12. Eminem's magnum opus starts off with a brilliant lead in to the song with "Ballz, Ballz, Ballz". Next a responsible, yet somewhat overweight father delivers a brilliant verse followed up by Bizarre's verse. But the main attraction comes from Mr Mathers with one of his (if not THE) best verse of his career. Featuring lines like "football, football, i love football" and the comical yet effective "Hut one, hut two, hut hut, hurry up
    I'm reaching up another grown man's butt". Why would Eminem be reaching up another mans anus? That is for the listener to decide. In addition to the career defining lyrics, Marshall's flow is top notch. No other Eminem song (or song period) will be able to capture the magic of "my ballz".

    Thankfully I did review it - TWICE!

    "
    Pimplikeness - Meh
    Other Notes: This is the D12 song. It's pretty meh. First off, they already did a song about pimping in "p---- Like Me" and it was BETTER. Everyone did a better job on that song, except for Bizarre.
    Bizarre is better in this song, all because he doesn't say anything disgusting. Yeah, he's better because he didn't do something. That's pretty bad... Eminem on the other hand, just wow... Eminem's verse is not good. In p---- Like Me he only did the hook, but here, he actually has a verse. I like when Eminem is in any song, but he was obviously high when he did it, and it feels like he put no effort into it.
    The only really good thing about this song is the beat, but once again, p---- Like Me has a better hook. Oh yeah, almost forgot the valuable lesson Kuniva gives out:
    "When cotton ain't selling, p*ssy always will"
    If you wanna hear a better version of this song, just listen to p---- Like Me."

    How the f--- did I never notice they were all in the movie?? I've watched it a multitude of times, I guess I will have to pay extra attention when I watch it again.
    Edit: also I'm very surprised you rated Em's verse the lowest, considering you are like a huge Em Stan aren't you?

    I am an Eminem Stan but even Em does have his weaker moments, this was one of them. Mostly because of how silly his verse was though.

    Something I will say about Em and maybe d12. Even at their worst, they can make a catchy a--- song. However when I actually hear the lyrics. It make me want to k--- myself

    I got inspired to do these from another critic on DeviantArt, so that may help explain it a bit.

    This song is incredibly gay. i mean 5 dudes sat around in a studio with an engineer/producer and made this track, then sent to it to the movie studio to submit it as song for an official soundtrack......why on earth did they think this ever had value, its a piece of s--- then and piece of s--- now 4/5.

    The song is the epitome of a great Eminem song. It has the bars, the stellar hook, and those great crude Bizarre lyrics.
