    So you're defining normal and laughing at another opinion? You sound wise. Nah that's sarcasm, it doesn't always come across in writing :)

    Vevo plays me a Britney Spears perfume ad before an Eminem video. Seem's legit.

    pretty sure "normal" as far as eminem's flow is concerned is close to unanimous

    Eminem was blessed with one of the best flows/voices in rap, so of course people are going to be disappointed and scratching their heads when he screams for no reason or raps in an accent or does that stop and go s---. Listen to his flow on Renegade and then on this and tell me with a straight face it's even comparable.

    It's been a long time since I've been able quote a line from an eminem song right after i heard it, but it happened after almost every song on this album.

    Agree with most of your thoughts. Especially that the bridge should have been the hook. Some JT-esque sounds there.

    Fine Line is the only really good song on this album for me, but for now I really enjoy the weirdness of Vegas. Shady XV & Right for me aren't anything special, PK is terrible and and Bane is one of the worst songs ever made in this universe. Won't have much replay value overall I guess. Lose Yourself demo has some great lines tho, especially on that second verse.

    Replaced fine line with the version where the bridge is the hook, it does make it even better.

    Good to see the forum's back. f--- you to the fa---- who registered under Brubbels. And why no gif support yet? Ontopic: Shady XV has far better production than MMLP2 (Vegas, Fine Line, Right For Me) but ultimately there's not much there that'll have any longevity. Fine Line is the best song by far (great sample and a superb hook), followed by Vegas which actually had some genuinely funny moments.

    Agreed btw with Fine Line not living up to it's potential. When I heard the snippet I was hoping that the bridge was actually part of the chorus and that there'd be some sort of climax to it at the end of the song. I did a quick edit in Ableton to squeeze the bridge into every chorus, but Eminem should've done a better job with this song. Ill upload it later for whoever is interested.
