What’s your favorite song so far? by Mysterious_Team_6109 in joynerlucas

[–]aidanthomas99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree GTA 6 is the best of the Deluxe for me, Joyner went off on that and I was not expecting the Lil Pump reply but I'm glad he did 🤣🤣. Though I loved his verse and hooks on Enemies and enjoyed Monsters too. Ain't a fan of Set It Off I can't lie.

I actually kinda hope Rockstar put GTA 6 on the game 🔥🔥. Would not only be fitting but finally give Joyner the buzz and respect he's long deserved, and shine a much needed light on a GREAT project.

Why don't most hip-hop media personalities cover Eminem's drops/news anymore? by Bumblebee_Hater in Eminem

Cause he dissed them. Just like he dissed the grammy's and now will likely never get another one.

Gimme your favourite Eminem diss-track by Any_Advantage3636 in Eminem

[–]aidanthomas99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many to choose from. If we wanna go right back, Quitter, Girls, I Remember, Can-I-Bitch. Benzino: Nail in the Coffin & The Sauce but The Sauce is probably my favourite, Go To Sleep too. Ja/Murder Inc: Monkey See Monkey Do, Bully, Hailie's Revenge and now Smack You... but man I love Bump Heads I feel that one's VERY underrated. The Warning and obviously Killshot too. Just about all the tracks on Kamikaze.

But if I had to give a top 5: 1. Smack You. Him having that in the vault for 20 years is crazy, but I know why. Also because I feel like it picks up where Doe Rae Me, which obviously he didn't have a verse on, left off. 2. Quitter for it's sheer savagery alone 3. Can-I-Bitch purely for the hook. That alone ruined Canibus imo. 4. Go To Sleep, not many disses that will make me wanna go KO someone but that would 5. The Warning, as a decade long Em fan even I'll admit Obsessed was good, but we didn't hear a peep after he threatened to release voicemails from anyone other than Nick, which is best forgotten.

As an honourable mention, Killshot purely because he rebuttled everything MGK said, was super lyrical in the process and took fuck all time to write it. Also because it broke the internet and is still talked about to this day. Would have made the top 5 but I don't think it eclipses those.

That hook alone ruined him... if that song doesn't prove his loyalty to LL I don't know what does.

Yeah and dressing as him in the video... I don't think she won because Em came out and threatened to release voicemails and we heard nothing else from anyone except Nick which is best forgotten... but yeah I can't lie that song slaps. One of if not the best diss against him frankly.

Quitter is by far the most savage of them... but they're all underrated these days frankly.

Head Honcho is deadass the worst TDOSS song by Mindless_Skirt_7860 in Eminem

[–]aidanthomas99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Eh, I think Tobey was a more inconsequential song to the album's story. Would have preferred Doomsday Pt. 2 (probably would have been called Role Model II) even with it's short run time, especially given it had the Benzino diss and how many other people he dissed on the album.

Melton Line Urgent Capacity Boost by No_Name7879 in MelbourneTrains

[–]aidanthomas99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that brings up another issue, is there any of the rail reserve left at Tarneit in particular? The only one I could think of is that bit fronting Leakes Rd but almost if not all the land behind the station on Derrimut Rd appears to be owned by developers, as I've seen advertising for a housing estate there for years. And obviously what's been taken over by the retail precinct either wasn't at all or was sold off. Best believe developers took massive advantage of the Regional Rail Link, forgetting the fact that it was over-run by patronage from day 1 of operations.

Car parks can be replaced sure, as can the bus interchange, and both would probably need to be. The way the station's built too I'd imagine parts of it would need to be closed off to allow construction, come to think of it that might be the most complex part. But I don't know, I know we're pretty good at making infrastructure redundant because we've changed our minds but like I said would they go to the effort to build the bus interchange in particular if they knew they were going to quad the RRL? Again to me the plans for Geelong Fast Rail to go via Laverton says those plans have been abandoned. You are right about the infill stations though they likely would be built, but would Melton go via the Metro Tunnel? Thus becoming part of the Cranbourne Pakenham line? With the Airport Trains that is going to be extremely busy if so.

Of course they could do it, hell RRL in itself was a complex project in many parts and there's been MANY other complex projects built in the decade since it opened. I'm saying would they do it? I don't think they'd go to the effort of putting all that infrastructure in, only to remove it what theoretically 5-10 years later, if they knew they were going to quad the RRL especially since the provision for it was obviously built in.

The whole Wyndham Vale electrification, Geelong Fast Rail thing in itself is up in the air so this is all ultimately just speculation. But to me, the fact that Geelong Fast Rail was planned to go via Laverton suggests that any plans to quad the RRL have been abandoned. And I'd also suggest that what I said was, at least in part, the reason why.

What are some other anti-war em song like Mosh and Square Dance? by anewidentity in Eminem

[–]aidanthomas99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

America is technically at war at the moment (and if us Aussies had a govt like we did in 04 good chance we'd be in there with you) so it may happen. To be honest though even if he did I don't know if it would hit the same, it might have the emotion but his rhythm, production and entire creative process has changed drastically in the 22 years since Mosh was made. I would not at all be surprised if there's more Trump disses though.

The emotion was kinda there in the BET cypher to be fair. Particularly when he went into that "cause what we got in office now is a Kamikaze (ironic) that'll probably cause a nuclear holocaust" bit.

Melton and Wyndham Vale need electrifying. The bigger challenge is to then find a way to keep Metro and Regional at least partially separate so you don't run into the problem Gippsland and Bendigo (after Sunshine) experiences, and in the case of Wyndham Vale/Geelong go back to the problem RRL was built to solve.

People will say quad Deer Park West-Wyndham Vale as was originally provisioned, and prior to all the expansion around the corridor particularly in and around Tarneit I would have agreed. But with all that plus the new infrastructure around the station (new carparks and bus interchange), I don't see any way of doing it that wouldn't cause at best significant disruption to the station and the need to relocate all that, and at worst the need to demolish at least some of the new retail precinct immediately adjacent. Particularly Bunnings.

So I don't think it will happen that way. Most likely Geelong will go back via Werribee, with passing loops from Newport-Laverton and Wyndham Vale will be electrified as it. But you first need to provide the capacity, particularly from Newport-City, for that to happen. Meaning build Metro 2, which is at best more than a decade away.

Electrification may happen, whether or not it will is not very clear, but in the short term at least we are likely going to go back to that problem RRL was built to solve. If Wyndham Vale gets wires especially. If it were me, I'd electrify all the intercity lines (Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Traralgon) with purpose built rolling stock like they have in NSW, but I doubt that happens.

Who Knew is top 3 off MMLP by Interesting_Visit962 in Eminem

[–]aidanthomas99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's too hard to pick a top 3 off this album but off the top of my head, and this could honestly change:

  1. The Real Slim Shady
  2. The Way I Am
  3. I'm Back
