    Yeah. None of those, n-----. Words Are Weapons > * And I know it's not just an Eminem song. But it should have been with that 5* Verse.

    This is my personal Top 3. And they just so happen to represent his 3 different personas.

    1. Hailie's Song- Marshall Mathers, the person
    2. Kim- Slim Shady, the psychopath
    3. 8 Mile- the rapper

    Lose Yourself is the correct answer.

    Dread or Alive Kamikaze should've been released 3 years ago

    Well, its hard to say,
    -In terms of flow, 'Rap God'....i felt tempted to take points off for that speed bs and the quality dip in certain parts , but the flow otherwise is his best ever IMO.

    -In terms of lyrical content, 'Till I Collapse' has the most bars and energy.... of all his old school s--- anyways (IMO) and those are considered his best. Nowadays, the best em verses are on other people's songs and albums.

    -Storytelling and emotional impact brings about an odd tie between 'Stan' and 'lose yourself'.
    but overall, its hard to tell, eminem has many songs, and alot of them are in the best ever in the genre

    I'd pick between:

    Guilty Conscience
    97 Bonnie and Clyde
    Rock Bottom
    Stan
    Drug Ballad
    The Kids
    Say Goodbye to Hollywood
    White America
    Lose Yourself
    8 Mile Road
    Deja Vu

    There's examples of heavy self reflection, creativity, story telling, different content/concepts, and social messages/commentary in these songs. They just stand out to me. I like Sing for the Moment or Till I Collapse, but they're kind of bland in comparison to these. Kim was a great risk, but 97 Bonnie and Clyde is in a league of it's own.

    Guilty Conscience doesn't get nearly enough credit. GC and 97 Bonnie and Clyde made me an Eminem fan.

    8 Mile Rd. has always been a favorite though.

    Drug Ballad should be the ubiquitous choice.

    Stan, Lose Yourself, and Deja Vu are also aristocratic.

    Drug Ballad is underrated.
    And why the f--- has no one mentioned "the real slim shady"?
