    Fun Fact: I actually was going to review this EP on my DeviantART account. I only got to the first track I Get Money before I scrapped it though. Here's how the review would have been like most likely:
    I Get Money - Meh
    Emulate - Good
    Ballin Uncontrollably - Scuminem (A bad song)
    Going Crazy - Meh (This version doesn't have the outro plus it's sped up pushing the rating from good to just being meh)
    Wee Wee - Scuminem
    G.O.A.T. - Scuminem (My First Single 2, same terrible beat except Eminem is slightly more comprehensible and there's him being cocky instead of toilet humor)
    The Apple - Good
    It's Been Real - Good
    I wouldn't have gave the mixtape a rating overall because it isn't an official album, but I would have said that it is a great representation of what Eminem albums (King Mathers in particular) would have been like if he didn't get off of drugs. Worse than Encore. Would there have been good songs? Yes, but the majority of them would have been crap. I also would have said that we should all be thankful that this isn't modern Eminem. Even if you dislike what Eminem's been making recenty, what would you prefer, "Ballin Uncontrollably" or "Kings Never Die"? I'd personally rather have Eminem making KND and BU.
    Feel free to say your opinion on this mixtape below. It was actually made by this site when they were called StudioLeaks.

    I think it's pretty bad, Like I said, basically a (slightly) better version of My First Single. I could understand what he was saying the first time around and there was no toilet humor, but the same crappy beat was used and Eminem was being rather cocky.

    It's a reference to this user named PieGuyRulz, he has been reviewing every Spongebob episode and he calls bad episode "Scumbob".

    The poll choices aren't ideal, it compares to different eras by choosing one of the worst songs from one time compared to the best from another. KND > Ballin Uncontrollably, but drugged out hiatus Eminem >>>> Current Eminem and it's not even close

    Why does everyone think G.O.A.T. is so great? It's not his worst hiatus song, but it's up there as one of his worsts. Like I said, same crappy beat as MFS and incomprehensible in some parts, Eminem being cocky, and at the end where he curses out his fans who weren't there from the start. Well Em, no one of your fans were there from the Soul Intent days, so you're pretty much cursing out all of your fans. Plus, this.
    " So faggoty faggoty faggoty gays
    Anatomy God made Raggedy Ann and Andy
    Not Raggedy Andy and Andy and Andy
    "
    Eminem something just like this in Relapse. If you dislike Underground and think that line was bad, you should probably think this one is bad too.

    Very thankful that songs like GOAT and Apple saw the light of day. Having these tracks really helps fill that void of 2007 Eminem music.

    Would rather get something like Kings Never Die over Ballin' Uncontrollably, but songs like The Apple & G.O.A.T over Kings Never Die.

    @Akio can you tell me why you actually like GOAT? I always assumed people disliked it.
    My opinion's really are unpopular here on SXN80... I think MMLP2 is great, I The Slim Shady Show is bad, I think Underground has a classic feel to it, and I think GOAT is bad.

    well, for one.. the poll is pointless.
    for two, the mixtape is 4 years old, and everyone knows about it, so its not really grounds for discussion.

    Maybe you're right. But, for those few people who don't know about it, there is this thread. The reason I made the poll was because I asked that question, since so many people complain about modern Eminem.
