Yes "Damnit I'm drawin' blanks like I'm playin' hangman" had me in tears. The song is really spiteful and childish tbh. Kanye captured the emotions of a broken long-term relationship much better in 808s & HB. Eminem should stop doing relationship songs because they are all the same.

not sure how die alone hits hard if you lose love or whatever

also marshall is HORRIBLE at love songs because each one those songs is proof he doesnt know s--- about romance..he should do spend some time songs whenever he wants to talk about love...or space bound

To me personally, all his other relationship songs I cannot relate to whatsoever. This one I can nearly relate to word for word. The Drawing blanks was a bad metaphor but I know what he is saying by you just can't find the words to say.

To each his own, but I felt that one way more than Spacebound or any of the other BS. Guess it just depends on one's eperiences.

I like the first verse, the whole 'stuffed teddy bear, guts everywhere' part but the rest is a let down

Didn't have enough interest to finish the album yet. Shady XV intro was so, so, so bad. He was saying nothing at all, reminded me of Underground in that way.

Yelawolf probably solidified his place as someone to get for a hook if you can't afford anyone from Bone Thugs. Going to try and listen to the whole thing in order to get a better sense, but so far Yelawolf is probably the best part of what I've heard, and that's pathetic.

Also, the Rihanna Pinocchio line is not clever or funny.

Why does Eminem randomly shout Robin Williams during Vegas?

This song with ALL the D12 members on it (except bizarre) would've been better then bane

anyone bought any of the bundles? I bought that 125$ bundle with the lyric print, hockey mask, beanie & album... still waiting on it tho

 

Nov 28, 2014

I was talking with a rep form Cuzzalo Ink and they said that they're making higher quality mask's for Shady and are shipping them out to them. So I decided i was gonna wait around for one of those.

 

Nov 28, 2014

I think I saw a few of those masks, like really large ones with spikes.
But the mask is just something extra to hang on the wall or something alongside the lyric print, thought the lyric print and the beanie was the coolest thing from the bundle

Now that I can finally give my opinion on this I'll go track by track..

1. Shady XV- I absolutely hated the classic rock beats on MMLP2 but it actually worked well here. This is great.

2. Psychopath Killer- This is easily the best Em collaboration with Slaughterhouse and Yelawolf since he signed them. The verses, the hook, the beat. It's amazing in all three phases. Might be my favorite song on the album.

3. Die Alone- This is one of the biggest disappointments I've ever heard from Em. With a serious title like Die Alone and Kobe on the hook after their flawless collaboration on Talkin To Myself I was expecting this to be one of Em's best songs since his comeback. Instead it is literally unlistenable. Maybe the worst song on the album.

4. Vegas- I didn't like this song after my first listen, but it's grown on me more than any other song on the album. I love it now.

5. Yall Ready Know- Average, meh, forgettable. Just like most of Slaughterhouse's songs.

6. Guts Over Fear- I overrated this when it first leaked. I no longer think it's Em's best song since Recovery. But it's still really good. Great actually.

7. Down- I don't listen to this. Just can't get into Yelawolf.

8. Bane- My biggest disappointment of this album was Em not being on this track. It basically confirmed that he'll never work with D12 again and they will never release another album again. The track itself is okay. I was glad Porter actually participated. Swifty and Kuniva both put in great effort on this and had great verses. Bizarre let me down though, as wierd as that is to say. Since this was his first verse on a Shady Records album in 8 years I was expecting some major shock value from him and he didn't really say much.

9. Fine Line- This is easily the best song on the album and maybe Em's best song since Recovery. The third verse is absolutely phenomenal and that bridge is one of his best ever.

10. Twisted- One of the best songs on here. My only complaint is no Em verse but his singing with Skylar works great. Yelawolf is actually tolerable on here.

11. Right For Me- I was hoping for some personal content on this or at least a solid theme throughout the song. Instead it's basically just Em showing off, which is alright.

12. Detroit Vs Everybody- Best beat on the album by far. Amazing. I actually like the hook and all the verses are great, except for Danny Brown's. Wtf is that s---?

Bonus disc- The track selection for this was absolutely horrible! But the Lose Yourself demo was a pleasant surprise. Not as good as the original obviously but still a nice gem from the vault. Glad we got to hear it.

Overall I give this project a 7/10. This wasn't meant to move alot of units or have mainstream success. This was for people like us, his hard core fan base. This was just something to hold us over while they all work on their new albums and I think it did a good job of doing that.

If they do make a video for twisted I hope they go all out. Really enjoy that song.

 

Nov 28, 2014

my favorite are Fine Line, Vegas, Twisted, Psychopath Killer & Shady XV

 

Nov 28, 2014

My exact thoughts!! Perfect analysis!

Shady Records should completely forget about D12, they just don't sound any good anymore, Eminem doesn't care, surprised Mr. Porter was on it lol
