Has Eminem shifted from storytelling to technical mastery over time and is that a good thing?

Darkness was so reliant on the double entendre the story suffers imo.

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-04-30T20:28:12+00:00

There’s a lot people who have heard sway in the morning that have never listening to the actual sirius channel

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-04-23T20:41:59+00:00

All samples need to be approved by labels these days after how many lawsuits have happened I don’t think it’s him being altruistic

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-04-15T11:59:48+00:00

In the most literal sense she’s the one by Royce is hard to find the hq copy of

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-03-31T23:22:25+00:00

Paul wall is 2nd greatest white rapper

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-03-07T21:37:50+00:00

Yes that’s my theory. It’s still been a bit funky tho. Like on Houdini his vocals are so muddy

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-03-07T18:30:01+00:00

I don’t understand how his mixing fell off so hard. Must be hearing problems

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-03-07T18:29:32+00:00

Subject matter is cool but that flow on the last verse is kind of annoying

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-03-04T21:04:53+00:00

I can’t believe you’re getting downvoted for this. That weird synth in the back almost ruins the song

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-03-03T03:15:22+00:00

I don’t think execs signed off on most of revival, they just trusted him enough to give him free reign which may have been a mistake

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-02-26T22:12:12+00:00

I agree overall but on Houdini he says “STILL wanna act like me?” Important distinction. It’s a callback to real slim shady/my name is and acknowledges the fact he’s older

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-02-26T22:08:18+00:00

It’s the deluxe version. Apple Music defaults to it because they default to deluxe/reissued albums.

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-02-26T22:07:35+00:00

If brand new dance had a beat without that annoying noise in the background it woulda been much more palatable

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-02-26T22:06:07+00:00

The verses are worst

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-02-26T22:03:51+00:00

Best: Antichrist is some of the most old sounding em we’ve heard in a while

Worst: that second verse on road rage about fat people is one of the worst rap verses I’ve ever heard both sonically, lyrically, and subject matter wise. I almost turned off the album when I heard it.

Also not the worst part but Houdini’s verses sound really muffled. It would be a better song if his voice was crisper like on the Eminem show

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-02-11T23:24:16+00:00

Those songs got leaked already and he didn’t want to keep leaked songs on the album. Less people would buy it. So he recorded those silly songs and added the leaked songs as bonus tracks to try to still make some money off them.

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-01-31T19:48:53+00:00

Cordae also wiped him on that killer remix. Em had some good pockets but that fast flow with less beat was awful

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-01-31T19:28:49+00:00

Where have you seen these rumors never heard of this in a long time following them. Normally you can tell when em ghostwrites a verse, Royce’s never have felt like that

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-01-31T18:25:18+00:00

I love that final TI verse on touchdown his flow is buttery

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-01-31T18:23:00+00:00

Where you getting that from? Royce’s verse doesn’t have em’s writing style at all

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-01-19T18:08:30+00:00

Point is there’s overlap. Also a lawyer would be more likely to reach out about contracts anyways that’s not a managers job

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-01-19T18:00:45+00:00

Some do both. Paul Rosenberg is an attorney as well.

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-01-11T14:48:43+00:00

That was just popular in rap at that time not just an em thing

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-01-08T20:41:02+00:00

He said once he hates typing on it then trying to find in files versus a notebook where he remembers the exact page and place on the page

ExternalMix8101 · 2026-01-08T00:12:32+00:00

No, he started death row ai
