ffs rap god

Eminem

Can't wait for the song with Lamar :proud

[El Gunner]

I just hope the song with K.Dot ain't gonna be disappointing, cuz I've been waiting on that Em - K.Dot collabo for a long time now.

[MJ]

Well hot damn... Another Control...

Kendrick's BET Cypher

[Rebaño Sagrado]

Album of the year so far?

Acid rap is sooooo good. Gonna listen to Run the Jewels soon.

[dmize]

Acid Raps up there.

Tbh I think it's been a pretty weak year for albums.

I liked Acid Rap, Trap Lord, the Mac Miller joint, OLD, MNIMN. I feel like I'm missing a couple..

A lotta good mixtapes this year though, I might even say that Cam has Mixtape of the Year.

[dmize]

Been bumping the last Gangsta Grillz


Dope.



^ Bumped that all summer but he can also straight up spit too:

[MJ]

So no one is talking about the BET Cypher?

What kind of rap thread is this?

Drake won 5

[dmize]

TDE was obviously dope as was Jon Conner and Budden. But overall kinda weak compared to the last few cyphers imo.

Jay Rock though  I think he got Kdot on their cypher though. Can't decide whos was better.

Can't wait for his album

edit: TDE was definitely sending shots at Papoose, all of em

Eminem is trash, can't believe he still has stans.

Last great album he released was over a decade ago lol.

agreed.

this is probably my fav rap song of all time.



soul sample era in rap was goat

[LeSwagg James]

Some of y'all should check out the new Shad album - "Flying Colours".

Never heard of him

Anyways, I've heard that 'Rap God' track twice, both times I couldn't finish it.. Berzerk is one of the most annoying songs I have ever heard in my life

I don't know wtf Em is on

Berzerk and Rap God are nothing alike.

Berzerk is a terrible song to get people hyped up at sporting events, nothing more.

Rap God on the other hand is the best track I've heard from Em in a couple years probably. What don't you like about it? Lyrically it was on point, the double time flows esp around 3-4mins

I can see how people might not like the beat though and all the flow switching he does... I think it's pretty dope though.

Sounds like an annoying rant on an annoying beat to me..

Eminem in 2013

His flow on his latest track is amazing BUT he pretty much says nothing, his punch lines are still incredibly dry (rap-bot ffs) and the beat is awful.

It's pretty much a one and done record with no replay value. After his last three albums, Bezerk & Survival he's clearly more miss than hit these days.

Kendrick Lamar is probably the best rapper around at the moment. Can't wait till he murks Eminem on his own track.

He's destroyed Jay Z (Electronica) pretty easily on that BDKMV Remix and Control, had the best verse at the BET cyphers, held his own with Pusha T...so I wouldn't put it past him either.

Then again the track probably wouldn't be released if his verse was great lol.

Yeah, but it's clear you have shit taste in rap.

[dmize]

I can agree with that. Flow was ridiculous esp when he goes double time, but I just think he's ran out of stuff to say. The beat seems to be hit or miss, plenty of people think it's good, others hate it.

[RealGunner]

Its very techno-ish which is weird for Eminem.

[dmize]

Yeah I don't love it but I can tolerate it.

While it's not his greatest song or anything, you have to realize Eminem is not going back to '99 Em. But if he can spit at that level on his next album with some darker harder hitting beats, I'll take that.

Diplo Immunity 1 & 2 are both classics.



First time I heard that beat I literally had the face

[dmize]

This song off Cam's mixtape sounds like some early 2000s Dipset/heatmakerz production. Love the sample

Because I think The Game is shit, I have shit taste in rap

I've seen you do nothing but hate on Game, Em, whoever else...

Aren't you a Jay-Z fan.


I guess namedropping for Jigga is alright though...
Someone should make a chart of all the bitten B.I.G. lines he's taken on his albums too.

edit: someone did

Spoiler:

Jay-Z the GOAT plagiarizer

[LeSwagg James]

Using brand names isn't really name dropping brah..

It's not like he tries to pass those lines as his own, ALL of those artists are famous and their fans and most 'hip hop heads' will know he's just paying homage

[MJ]

That's a god-awful amount of homage.

Anyway I can understand why Jay-z is as big as he is (not really actually) wouldn't be anywhere near my top 10 but he is a business, man.

Ali showed me this one:
