    Also, f--- Detroit vs Everybody, song had no direction. Would have been nice if they actually came up with something to say about Detroit or at least something that has to do with the city.

    I'd give it something between 6 and 7. I like all Em songs (except for Die Alone. wasn't completely bad, but as you said eh), but GoF and DvE are a little over average at best. Twisted though >>>>>

    i dont understand this lol at all.

    "i made this back when it sounded good to me, now after browsing the internet ive let people change my opinions because they made fun of me so i then began to morph into their opinions which is the "right opinions" becuase now i am accepted. im sure ill come out of this logic phase soon but until then f--- yeah dude under pressure > gkmc f--- kendrick"

    I understand your point homie, but when you start discovering more artists and getting more mature your thoughts on some things change. Not saying that if you like ShadyXV you are automatically stupid but in my case I tend to be now really harsh with Hip Hop records. The album is mediocre, I don't see miself playing it again, I used to try to like everything Modern Eminem was releasing even doe I didn't find myself enjoying it that much.

    I was dissapointed with Shady XV. Idk what I was expecting but aside from Guts Over Fear and Fine Line which are great, I didn't like it that much.

    If the hook would've been different and replaced Yelas verse with an Eminem verse song would've been 10/10

    Eminem is a great producer for his own tracks, besides Dr Dre and Bass Brothers. Vegas is an amazing track and the beat, where his verse gets to the end, is PERFECT for something like a Need For Speed game right in the center of Tokyo at night when it rains. Amazing song, style switching, really well fitting for Royce. Fine Lane sample, hook, singing where he says "please come back to me" sound really emotional and gave me chills at first, his third verse is probably one of the best ones because beat becomes more simple and lets you focus on what he says. He begins to yell in the end and then sadly and quietly says "I'll always be an outsider". GOF is good. I just like it. In Twisted I was able to feel the pain, or maybe not pain, but all emotions Eminem tries to express in that song, especially in the second Skylar's verse. This is a good indicator of which direction is he going to. It's a mix between Recovery and MMLP2, it should've come out in 2012 and be the perfect transition.
