    Been listening to Lucky You again. Trying to enjoy Em's part but can't. His f----- up delivery hasn't changed. There are good parts but then he goes off, changes pace etc.. Even on Kamikaze, the dude's issue is his fkin delivery still.

    f---, that could have been a legendary song. Video is dope and Joyner kills it.

    Wish Em would stop trying to rhyme every word in a sentence and stop trying so hard to be creative with his word play.

    His problem is his music as a whole. And it has been for a while.

    Dude needs to concentrate on his timing on a beat and how to make a song that is enjoyable for the listener rather than trying to drop 1000 bars and basically freestylng over a beat and killing the whole vibe.

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

    It had a concept and a theme. The direction was there but slightly misguided.
    The theme of the album was reflection. MMLP was a reflection of Em's career up to that point and how it defined him as a person(stan, criminal, Marshal mathers, I am) MMLP2 was a reflection of EM's career since then up to that point (bad guy, rap god, headlights, monster) Songs like rap god and monster for example kinda focus on how big he's made himself as an icon. Rap god being him bragging about it and Monster being him complaining about being too big for himself to handle. rhyme or reason being him reflecting on his dad and headlights on his mom.


    Problem with mmlp2 was the production not being bad per se, but pretty rough sounding compared to the smoother sounding modern hip-hop albums (f--- rick rubin) made worse by his style of rapping on the album. The outcome is something that doesn't sound bad like revival does, but to the training hip-hop ear doesn't sound particularly appealing. It makes relistens bland more than bad. Also things like track ordering and too many songs that could've been axed (and some bonus tracks better than the main s--- by far)

    mmlp2 has some of the best written verses em's ever made imo, just maybe not the best sounding.

    It's not that deep.

    Imo it felt all over the place. Maybe it was the song placement, don't know. It had some good songs but as an album as a whole it felt out of place. Probably could have removed some songs.

    When you listen to TES or MMLP or even Relapse, Recovery as an example. All his albums. They all have a recurring sound. MMLP2 just sounds all over the place and has no direction. Some pop songs, some rappity rap. It just has no overall theme.

    Calling it MMLP2 was also a dumbass idea. What a disgrace to a classic album.
