    That's been what? Two tracks or something? And when he's with Eminem they're obviously trying to just out nonsense-rap eachother...of course Em is better at nonsense.

    Those songs hardly have any concept at all...DVE has a premise but Em barely sticks to it---and Royce has a better verse on that track. So.

    How does Eminem not stick to the premise? And i disagree about royce's verse being better, all though there are elements of his verse I enjoy. AITA's concept is that all they think about is, i'm assuming, rap...there are thousands of hip-hop songs that are just lyrical displays with no "concept" or "storyline" like you would prefer.


    Also, on Vegas, and AITA, royce couldn't compete. In addition, the shadyxv cypher was a prime opportunity for royce to shine, but eminem still overpowered his performance with a much better a capella.

    I can bump Royce in the car without getting odd looks.
    I can't bump Em's current work because everyone would be wondering why I'm listening to someone who flows terribly.

    I agree royce is more appropriate for the whip
    but, that doesn't mean Eminem flows "terribly" lol

    @Changeling

    Ok, I understand if you find his "flows" robotic and cluttered. Its not fair to assume all listeners are listening for the same things and find the same things in music enjoyable. So, with that said, to each his own. I respect your opinion.

    At least you see where I'm coming from...I agree with you when you are saying they're skilled and complex and yada yada...but from the start I'm just saying imo they are not good 'music'.

    Some n----s like straight forward games like GTA5. Some n----s like complicated, longer games like RPGs (skyrim, fall out, etc.)
    Some people like both.

    I one of those people who like both.
    You get where I'm coming from?

    i rarely bump Eminem in the whip, s--- is weird as f--- in that setting. I listen to other s--- in those type of social settings.
    i rarely listen to Eminem if i'm tryna chill
    i rarely listen to Eminem if i'm with tha homies

    BUT
    I will sit down and listen to Eminem, giving his music the attention it deserves. Once you actually sit down for a minute and just really look at and listen to what he's doing on the mic, s--- is f---ing alien strange. I'm talking about his writing, his vocal delivery, what he does with his actual voice. His rapping voice(s) sound almost nothing like his normal talking voice - he is almost voice acting/performing on the mic at this point. How he sets up his wordplay is f---ing crazy too, i can't lie. I'm not a stanning idiot; I can see why some don't f--- with it. It is off putting to the ears because it isn't meant to be driving music, or chilling music, or homie music, or party s---; its like watching a weird a--- artist paint some crazy s--- in front of an audience, and then the audience just looks at the painter, confused as f---, minds blown, and just totally uncomfortable before awkwardly clapping in silence. Eminem is almost like that weird kid in school who has almost no friends, keeps to himself, and is lowkey smarter than errybody but gets bad grades cause he's a bad test taker

    Thanks so f---in much, couldn't said it any better than this.

    You summed up my 100% thoughts.

    I like your last example so much, it is so accurate, except he gets bad grades not because he's bad test taker, it's because nobody understand what is he doing/his intelligence except people like me and you who go deep on his lyrics and listen to his voice clearly. I spend hours exploring his songs without getting bored, it takes me to another world. Pure masterpieces. People just wants the magical flow that he used to have, which doesn't go well with his current lyrics writing/vocal delivery.

    Yes, I would never play 2009-2015 in the car. I would just enjoy it by myself sitting alone and thinking deeply in the lyrics.

    I tried to explain this many times but everybody keep saying I'm blind Stan.

    But I really don't give a single s---, I would bump old and new Eminem both are legends.

    Hey guys,

    I'm planning to go to Lollapalooza Argentina 2016.

    Anybody knows how can I buy a ticket.

    and does the highest VIP ticket get me to meet Eminem ?

    I would really appreciate helping me.

    Imagine Eminem making songs like the ones Drake does.

    He'd fall so f---ing hard. Doesn't even suit him. Don't know how some people even compare Drake to Em.
