Dec 4, 2019 People are talking about Em like it's really cringey to be a fan of his, right now in 2019 more than ever before. Why tf would that be? Kamikaze improved his legacy from where it was after Revival and his most recent activity as far as most people would say was dissing MGK. If Revival was his most recent album I could understand thinking Em is wack, but everyone seemed to be on his side after Kamikaze for a while (average people - not critics). Wtf happened in the last nine months to make him old and wack again? Or am I crazy and nothing's actually changed?
Dec 4, 2019 It’s funny I was thinking about this too. Like, if I was Em and say I just got done laying something new for the 2019 or 2020 album, I would honestly sit there and be like: “f---. What exactly do these motherfuckas want” I mean you hear something like “The Ringer”, “Not Alike”, “Lucky you”, “Chloraseptic (Remix)”, “Caterpillar”, and yes the “Homicide” verses and those objectively (Yes, objectively) Rap wise are great verses. h--- throw in “Fall” too. And yet...... These people are STILL questioning s---. I honestly don’t know how he deals with it. “Walk on Water” 3rd verse was prolific when you really think about it “And everyone who has doubt, remind Now take your best rhyme, outdo it, now do it a thousand times Now let 'em tell ya the world no longer cares or gives a f--- about your rhymes” Like s---. Lol. Can’t do enough for nobody. Might as well say f--- it. Lol
Dec 4, 2019 So true. And I never got the hate for WOW. That song is amazing. The first two songs and last 3 songs of Revival could have made a classic album. Too bad the middle was so meh.
Dec 4, 2019 im just a "cracker" with a "barrel",armed to the T/ Anderson pak], rest in peace/ to afeni shakur, and-her-son-pac] man used cracker barrel to mean a white guy with gun barrels, being armed and making an entendre with Anderson pak to pay respect to afeni passing and pac. whoever the f--- says that's whack really doesn't respect the craft of writing. I see so many people talk about flows from 20 years ago....most of his flows back then were so godamn basic. they may of been "effortless" but that's bc they didn't require effort. ppl say hes off beat really don't hear the nuances in the beat where his syllables are bouncing from, or see the full construction of his schemes and tying everything together. or maybe some do but just don't like it idk, but ill always be here for ppl that are technicians. or when people said majesty was ehhhhh. That's why rap needs a doctor Our genre's lymph nodes are swole up It's time to check it for strep or some tonsillitis 'Cause like what they swab you with when your throat hurts That's why Tribe is so vital: we need Q-Tip for the culture rap needs a dr (dre) game being sick swab you with when your throat hurts (q tip) tribe is vital (tribe called quest-which q tip is apart of) vitals (another medical term) need q tip for the culture (the qtip thats swabbed is tested for a "culture" qtip is vital to the culture) Even if you fire-breathe, ain't s--- you can say to inspire heat If you wrapped your entire mead pad up in a dryer sheet And I'm back to rule the kingdom of f--- it Better not use me as your topic Anybody who brings me up, duck it Let me keep it 100 Two things shouldn't be your themes of discussion The queen and her husband Last thing you're gonna wanna be is our subjects, yeah mede pad( note book) kingdom use him as a topic themese of discussion queen and her husband dont wanna be our subjects - king and queens subjects/their subjects to rap about even rainy days had mashalls dead in the water but not that I care dre said rock the boat and the Doc(dock) is my peer(pier) yall can hate on b--- all you want, but when he did that stacked vocal bridge to reference gangstas paradise and re produced that sample in the beat was dope compare me to manson, Marilyn or Charles....the pistol that triggered this thought floss raps tryna "stunt", compare me to meek big "wheelies" get popped compare em to scabs im picking them off. scheme was hard as f--- gtfo if you think his schemes building up to entendres/wordplay/punchlines arent crazy af
Dec 5, 2019 Beat switches like that work/are great Its when he does a feature and the beat he raps on switches just because hes rapping is what we're talking about.
