    I listened to it earlier and thought it's still a good song. i never see anyone praise or anything am I a minority?

    edit: Em's singing in the second verse > pop

    I thought it was pretty good the first listen but then it was just another poppy song, The music video definately made it 10x better.

    it's a good song that would've been better without Rihanna and a chorus by Eminem would've made it really dope, the music video though :banderas:

    I actually think if it wasn't such a poppy beat and instead a darker one it would have a lot more respect. Imo the lyrics aren't that bad. Well in a darker theme they would have sounded better.

    I think the hook is f---ing great. The beat could be darker but for a SONG it's great

    Not a fan of the song. Too poppy for my liking. Although, the music video is one of Em's best. So much nostalgia:kdotcry:

    Great song for a single tbh. I'll take songs like this anyday over his poppy/joke first singles.

    The Rihanna chorus on LTWYL is so catchy and has lots of emotion.. Comparatively, Monster seems so uninspired and cookie cutter to match that song's success. I like MMLP2 but this song is with Rhyme or Reason and So Far at the bottom for me.

    I haven't seen the video yet though.

    It's like LTWYL in the sense that I like it, but I want to hear it very often.

    It's a okay song. Rihannas covered hook is not so annoying like the LTWYL hook. But I never thought it would be a a dope video like this.
