Santa Monica, CA, May 22, 2015—Shady Records/Interscope Records will release Southpaw (Music from and inspired by the Motion Picture), soundtrack to The Weinstein Company motion picture Southpaw, starring Jake Gyllenhaal. The album- which will feature new songs created for and inspired by the film and more- will be released this July. Shady Records founder Eminem also serves as the album’s executive producer. The DJ Khalil produced first single from the soundtrack, Eminem’s “Phenomenal,” appears in the trailer of the new movie.
The film, directed by Antoine Fuqua (Training Day) and written by Kurt Sutter (Sons of Anarchy, The Shield), is the riveting story of Billy “The Great” Hope, the reigning light heavyweight boxing champion of the world (played by Academy Award nominee Gyllenhaal). Hope seemingly has it all, with an impressive career, a beautiful and loving wife (Rachel McAdams) an adorable daughter (Oona Laurence) and a lavish lifestyle. When tragedy strikes and his lifelong manager and friend (Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson) leaves him behind, Hope hits bottom, and turns to an unlikely savior at a local gym, Tick Willis (Forest Whitaker), a retired fighter and trainer to the city’s toughest amateur boxers. With his future riding on Tick’s guidance and tenacity, Billy enters the hardest battle of his life as he struggles with redemption and to win back the trust of those he loves. The movie will be released nationally on July 24 and also features singers Rita Ora and Tyrese Gibson along with boxer Victor Ortiz in the cast.
Said Shady Records President Paul Rosenberg: “We have been involved in developing Southpaw since it’s inception and Eminem has dedicated himself to ensuring that this film captured his passion for the project through his music. We’ve assembled a great soundtrack to accompany what’s sure to be one of the finest boxing films ever.”

....Sigh. I'm well past my Eminem phase, but I'll still listen to what he puts out in the hope that he might drop a gem now and then. I had hope for this one based on the movie trailer. This song that should have been a layup for Eminem is an absolute train wreck. These are the reasons why:
1. Listen, I'm no audiophile or anything close to being an expert on sound quality, but how can someone who has been making music for his entire life put out something that sounds so f---ing terrible? I can barely hear a word he's saying, the entire beat is schizophrenic, the chorus is inaudible...please someone tell me I'm wrong?? Did they accidentally put the unmastered version on iTunes? I'm genuinely perplexed by this...I haven't read this thread but surely other people have noticed this. I just don't understand how someone with the supposed production and mixing talents of Eminem can possibly listen to this and think it actually sounds LISTENABLE, let alone good. If the music is sonically pleasing, I can actually get past some of the lyrical....."missteps" Em seems to take in every song nowadays, which brings me to my next point...
2. This was not a difficult song to make. Inspirational, soundtrack...motivational gym song. This should be an easy task for the man who put out Lose Yourself, Sing for the Moment, and Till I Collapse....until I remembered his last "pump up" tracks were Won't Back Down and Survival. He literally could have used generally generic lyrics and nobody would have complained. Instead, we have head-scratching lines that have nothing to do with the song and are just absolutely pointless. Examples:
"The messiest thing you've ever gone through is your purse!" --- Why is he talking to a women all of the sudden? Who is she? What does she have to do with this song? This is an obvious and horrible crutch sober Em has reverted to, talking to an imaginary "hoe" out of nowhere. Pointless.
"Put a spark to it like Martha Stewart barbecuing" --- Yes, it rhymes. So does 'This lyric is trash, put a spear in your a---, your spirit is whack!" except mine actually makes more sense. Does Martha Stewart even barbecue? What does she have to do with this song? Come on.
"The only thing I'm capable of making is amazing!" ------.....lol.
3. That flow just needs to stop. Someone needs to strap him in a chair and force him to listen to "Square Dance" on loop 1000 times.
