    don't you get tired of sounding like an a--- all the time?

    is the birthday in your profile real? how can you be only 15 and say em sucks "now"? do you even remember 1999? I have a very difficult time believing sharing genuine reactions to music is something you're remotely interested in

    Reup really showed off the artists at the time. Lots of collaborations with each other. really gave you that family vibe. I feel like Shady XV lacked that. I thought there would be some Yela + SH, D12 + SH, D12 + Yela, Yela + Em, etc.

    You're r-----ed. Do I remember 1999, the year I was born? Obviously not. Am I interested in sharing genuine reactions to music. Yes, with people who seriously understand rap, and not fa----s who dickride Em like it's 2003 (which, yes, I do remember).

    I liked him sampling Billy Squier's My Kinda Lover on the title track.

    Does anybody who bought the album know if he gave credit to Justin Timberlake for sampling My Love?

    Nosense verses? What he says that doesn't make sense?

    The whole Shady XV is a f---ing insane rapping song packed with an stupid amount of multis, incredible puns, cadence, flow, structure, humor, etc. Not even close lol

    He is one of the few rappers that can combine multis with flow and doesn't sound like the classic lyrical myracle underground rapper.

    Again you are mentioning the technical aspect of the song.

    Fine Line is the only song that follows a normal narrative structure, where things have stories or thoughts.

    On the album not are introspection, just a bunch of rhymes -amazings rhymes- but have no weight or importance.

    But you don't understand, don't take it as an "album", is just extra content for the hardcore fans meanwhile Em is working on another solo album. This not supposed to have a subject matter on every song.

    Also Twisted, Die Alone and Guts Over Fear got a narrative structure.
