    I’ve heard this line a few times. Obviously that’s your opinion. Makes me wonder if you’re not a fan of heavy metal or something. Because there’s absolutely a sub genre of noise and aggressive ~screaming in music. Not your cup of tea, fine. But I’ve seen some elites diminish eminem alone as somehow sub-music.... without also deriding this entire tradition of music (that could potentially make them sound too dismissive, or glib critically)

    Edit: and no I’ll take the highs of recovery, and some of the lows, over eminem farting and being an accented serial killer (tho tbh relapse is a concept album so I’m always unsure where to rank it)

    dawg scorpion isn't that good. neither is ye. neither is kamikaze. all the big artists dropped 6/10s at best. doesn't mean you can't get a bit of enjoyment out of them.

    A billion in streams. Naw drake won. Eminem knew better to go after people bigger than him. Scared of drake lol Still hasn’t even dissed Rick Ross. But disses MGK over a tweet from 2012 and took him 6 years to make it lol Budden would destroy Eminem in a lyrical battle. All the dirt he has on Eminem from the earlier years. He made sure to wait Budden was retired.

    But like...we all critique Em on a curve lol. It’s ok, that’s just kind of what we have to do. There’s bars on here though that would not fly on a Drake or even Kanye album lol. Like, outside of Stepping Stones, a majority of Scorpion is prob better than everything else on Kamikaze lol.

    all three albums are full of terrible punchlines, just each artists' own variety of terrible punchlines.

    I'd take the, like, four or five songs I like on Scorpion over anything on kamikaze easily, but so much of Scorpion falls flat for me, and that's especially bad when it's a 25 song album.

    There's definitely MOMENTS that I do like on Recovery. But as an overall project it's trash to me. There's maybe like 2-3 songs I actually enjoy, much like Relapse or Encore.

    I genuinely do like Kamikaze though. I don't like the love songs, because they don't sound genuine and sound super out of place. I would've rather him put out an 8 song EP for Kamikaze (without the skits and 3 love tracks) and I would've rated it way higher.

    But Kamikaze is way more consistent (at a high level) and more natural sounding from him than anything he's put out in the last 14 years.

    To me it's a 6.5-7 album, and I NEVER thought Eminem would've been capable of that in 2018, or s---, even 2011.
