Sorry. Eminem. It's just a really bad verse. Got me thinking must be a bittersweet thing for Weeknd because it's like, oh, sick, here's this legend who he (prolly) liked as a kid (maybe?) and then he goes on something you created and it's just dog poo poo.

Ferg's new track is an interesting new approach, a lot more dark/cold than the rest of his poo poo.

Ferg runs out of steam and fall off the beat every verse. Always get the feeling he suddenly forgets where he is and why he is rapping.

Yeah it's a bummer. There were some good tracks on MMLP2 (that last verse on Bad Guy is some pretty amazing poo poo) but it's not really a good album at all.

He also just raps way too technically for it to be enjoyable, there's no breathing room on any of his tracks. Like listen to this poo poo or this poo poo, it's just awful.


I can't believe I'm saying this but this Pitchfork article kind of sums up why his music is so bad perfectly

http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/20036-various-artists-shady-xv/

quote:

Seconds into the 2xCD label compilation Shady XV, which pairs 12 new songs with a disc of "greatest hits," Eminem fires up his rappity-rap sputtering chainsaw, and it never ceases for the spiritually exhausting hour that follows. Even at his peak, his rapping was never melodious, but at his nadir, he has all the musicality of a leaf-blower. The production functions simply, like a stopwatch: It's there to tell him when to start and when to stop, and occasionally a juiced-up power-rock chorus interrupts him. Submitting production to an Eminem album must feel, for a producer, something like a novelist feeding their manuscript into a wood chipper. On the one hand, you are guaranteed unprecedented exposure, and on the other, you are all but ensuring that no one will notice a note of your work.

That's how these things always go though. Generally an artist like him has a year where he should have won. they gets shafted, and then the next time around they make it up to them..

Also helps that you don't have a real Drake project, a Kanye project, or a white artists project to go up against.
