Yoooo 😂😂😂
Give him a break.
Ken is 67 years old.
@@JayGLiteHarlem u lame for that
It's funny every time man, doesn't matter how unoriginal that comment is now.
The anderson paak song with eminem was the best to me and the you gon' learn track with royce best track imo
Dijon Martinez 100% agree
And those songs were good cuz of the features
@@GQFJB Lmao no eminem smoked his verse on You Gon Learn and he matched the vibe of anderson paak on Lock it up, he did his part.
Why aren’t we talking about Lock It Up? One of the best flowing Eminem songs in the past 5 years.
I know, that song is brutally underrated, it's fantastic
That's my favorite after Darkness.
Some of the time reaction videos is more in depth than this whole review video tf.
HEY BRO WHERED YOU GET THEM FROM?
I thought so too. That should be a single.
Going to have to disagree with the review. But it’s cool honestly.
I legit enjoy every song. Nothing can sway my mind. At all.
If anything, I’ll agree with the title. It screams “Murder raps” but the vibe wasn’t really dark. Cool. Whatever
I love this album. Every song. I can hear a 1,000 reviews and will be like:
“Cool. Rock on. More greatness for me”
The replay value for me is super, super high. I can pinball with album since it has a mixtape vibe. I can play a bunch of shit randomly and sometimes even still end up playing the whole thing.
Rock on with y’all review and anyone do y’all thing. I just genuinely enjoy it
It's because it's all sampled by Alfred Hitchcock's. Music to be murdered by album has nothing to do with being dark music.
So you're a stan is what you're saying.
victor keeps it 100
Nah whats wrong in loving a body of work. I think the album is his best in a while. Its everything i wanted. Jus wish he rid in too deep those kinda nights and farewell they were good songs but didnt fit
Loool
I’m with you man, this album was so good. I can even play his “weaker” tracks with no problem. This was his most diverse album. As a fan, he gave me everything I wanted. Songs that were deep, personal, crazy bars, little bit of the old Eminem with that anger, the humorous soft side, political, etc. He killed this album.
Feefo you really like this album. I can see it in your eyes. Stop fronting. Stop being afraid of what your friends will think.
Hey that juice wrld feature though was dope as hell, really missing the dudes voice already these days rip
I actually really like the beat on that one, sounds kinda like Hiphy which really caught me off guard cuz I never expected Em to spit over something like that
He has been gone for a very short time. What are you missing?
@@MegaSLIPKNOTMASTER He's been dead for almost 2 months, it's not a very short time. Also, what's wrong with missing someone who's been dead for a short time?
@@thomaswiseau2421 I don't have a problem. I'm just asking what he is missing. It's not like artists drop music every single day or even every month.
@@MegaSLIPKNOTMASTER They kidna do in hip hop, especially these newer teenage artists who make 200 throwaways a day and upload them to soundcloud.
Kinge finna walk into one of these videos with the damn monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey
Beezy kinda looks like Masta Ace when he's wearing a hat.
😂😂😂
Bruh No Regrets was one of the standout hooks on the album, Don Toliver killed that shit! This review is an example of the size of Em's fanbase at this point. Every section wants different shit! Y'all want him to do all old school Slaughterhouse style joints, but then people say that shit sounds dated. He has up and coming artists come in and smash the hooks and then people say he's tryna appeal too much to the younger crowd. I can see why this dude going crazy on that first track 😨😡.
No Regrets is one of the few less cringy "modern" tracks em went on. Beat was chill AF
I enjoy this channel but to me none of these guys ever understand the mindset of Eminem when it comes to his music and how he put together his projects.
Favorite joint "No Regrets (Feat. Don Oliver)" I give the album 4/5 mics.
1. The Marshall Mathers LP
2. The Eminem Show
3. The Slim Shady LP
4. Kamikaze
5. Music To Be Murdered By
6. The Marshall Mathers LP
7. Recovery
8. Revival
9. Relapse
10. Encore
Revival over relapse is a massive L
I liked it a lot. Not an Album of the Year contender or anything, but like 12 of the 17 songs (intro/interlude/outro dont count) have gone onto my playlist. An Em album hasnt really clicked with me like this in a while. Lock it Up and Marsh are two tracks ive gone back to over and over again, I think those are replayable as hell.
Myke is just straight up gas-lighting with his final remarks. Eminem has shown on plenty of occasions that he's a fan of some pop music. (Ironically, Myke is a fan of some pop music himself.) The fact that he's been collaborating with pop acts for literally a decade now and even put relatively unknown artists like Jessie Reyez on his albums is a pretty telling sign that he actually enjoys making these kinds of songs. Hell, he even proudly proclaimed this on "Rap God" ("It's not hip-hop, it's pop, cause I found a hella way to fuse it"). Just because he isn't doing what YOU want him to do doesn't mean he isn't doing what HE wants to do. Give me a fucking break.
My point exactly!
When he said "it's not hip hop its pop" he was saying it satirically, mocking those who say it, to where he responded by saying "I just found a hella way to fuse it." Just like when he said "slim what if you win will it be weird" that's not from his perspective, hes speaking in third person.
Shock rap with doc. Yep and rock
RIP KOBE
Surprised y'all wasn't feeling You Gon' Learn enough to mention more!!! That Royce beat just oozed Detroit... and BOTH verses were incredible IMHO!
I had a feeling they wasn’t going to like it. Sad.
Maybe if Relapse and this album switched album titles both albums would be great
I think some people somehow conditioned themselves to hate Eminem hooks, cause I really don't see much problem with most of the hooks in this album. For example the hook for stepdad was taken pretty much directly from an old Argentinian rock song and I don't think if you guys heard that before hearing stepdad you would complain as much as you do with stepdad. For anyone interested it's called amame peteribi
And that little engine hook is one of my favorite in the album
09:29 this is always what im waiting for..a myke impression 😂😂😂😭
I feel like El-p is one of the only producers that can revitalize Eminem’s career.
Wouldn't mind a feature from Em on rtj4
Just watched the end and no regrets is amazing. Now I can tell y'all are hating. The hook beat and Don was fire
Maybe they just didn't like it
K.I.D I get that and it's all opinion base when it comes to rating things. I just felt like some of what they were saying was a little contradicting that's all.
@@donovancarrol2856 what was contradicting?
They all liked something different. So it seemed like if you broke down every song it would be something for everyone but the hooks being bad is something they agreed on right. Yet no regrets, little engine, and step dad are the ones they could think of and name as bad hooks. All are different and no regrets is a total different person and vibe and just about everything about the hook is different. So it just caught me off guard when all this guy's with different opinions and different views was able to agree on that.
Lyrics wise they liked royce verse on the slaughterhouse joint with em but the track with just em and royce was better and I'd go as far to say royce outshined em on that track. So it was just weird hearing their takes on different tracks on the album
No regrets it's the first song in such a loong time that has touched me,very deep!
I'm waiting for the Snow Tha Product and Em collaboration. Would have much preferred her to Young MA. MUCH preferred.
DEHH 2020 is underway! Thanks for another year guys, and here’s to another big one
I never understand why review an album of an artist you consistently don't like.
While I agree with the points you guys made on the album, the criticisms about some of the choruses, the anger and speed flow are valid, it seems like those criticisms hurt your overall enjoyment of the album a lot more than it did for me. I can live with a few wack choruses and a few pop songs when I really really enjoy the rest of the album. For me personally, songs like Yah Yah, You Gon Learn, intro, unaccomadating, I will, and lock it up are going straight onto a playlist while I can appreciate songs like Darkness, those kind nights, never love again, leaving heaven, and Marsh as being decent songs for a certain mood. The rest I might skip, but that's a pretty solid percentage of really dope songs. I can understand the frustrations with elements of those songs, and the rest of the popish songs but for me it doesn't mean I walk away disappointed, which is the sense I get from ya'll.
I think you guys probably agree with me that at this point in Em's career you kind of have to accept that his entire albums arent going to appeal to you, because his fan base is so large and disparate and he is trying to cater to them all. Myke raised a good point about Em should just stick to making the music he likes, because as he said in the intro, all sections of his fanbase want different shit haha. He's basically had this problem since Recovery. The question then becomes this: do you enjoy the things you enjoy enough to overshadow the things you don't like? Clearly for most of this group (except Myke and Feefo who I get the feeling enjoyed the album a lot more than Beezy and Ken ) the low points were too low for them to fully enjoy the album. I wish you guys discussed the things they liked a bit more, because it feels like a disproportionately negative review, given you didn't think it was wack, although I understand that we are only seeing 30mins of what was probably a longer conversation. Anyway, enjoyed the review, just thought I'd leave my 2c if anyone gives a flying fuck
lmao if Big Sean said that Borat line Myke would've clowned him to death
I agree with what Myke said at the end. But also a few things I would love to see Em do that would help him is 1) do something completely left field. Maybe do a whole project with Alchemist or over Griselda type beats. Like Beezy said, get on some darker production. That’s what we’re use to from him. Not these poppy trap beats. 2) Actually bring back Slim. Just go full horrorcore on an album. I know he got mixed signals with the response of Relapse but time has passed & it’s probably his last great album. Go back to killing mfers (lyrically & conceptionally)...without the accent. 3) Stop trying to appeal to the mainstream crowds. They don’t get that bar fest Em
I did a supercut of this album which looks something like this:
Premonition
You Gon Learn
Yah Yah
Alfred Interlude
Marsh
Lock It Up
Unaccommodating
Little Engine
Godzilla
Darkness
I Will
Alfred Outro
I'm enjoying the album way more like this, but its just me tho
I’m so early the vids only at 360p
Hey Rod, the way you’ve been lighting the studio and staging everyone lately looks great.
Zak Seeker so good to see them evolving man
Not Feefo. He looks sick
@@rickyrichreacts9667 :o
"If you havent been murdered, then better luck next time."
If you didnt catch the bars, try harder next time.

Y’all sleepin on You Gon’ Learn, easily my fav track he’s put out these past few albums
Hated the album but that song is good
@Laurits Frederik Lehmann 2017p Yah yah, Lock it up, I will and those kinda nights are also great. I feel Stepdad and Unaccomadating are bad but I still like to listen to Stepdad
Agreed. Produced by Royce, who I didn't know was this nice a beat maker. That hook on there is dope too.
Yeah that’s definitely one of the best Eminem songs in the past couple years
I loved Royce's verse. I don't need Em to reference Pokemon.
All of royce's features were fantastic
Royce is crazy to me, for somebody to become better this far into a career is insane. Better in every way too, lyrically, flow, musically, even making beats now. 5'9" is goat status to me.
Need a bad meets evil 3. I think Royce brings the best out of em
Dee Cee Royce has always been underrated
@@dvon1097 I like Royce more Than Eminem. But Eminem is still cool tho
I'm happy to hear Em spitting really well. I really like this album
Like Em said long ago "I'm still be the mad rapper if I'm rich or not,be in a canoe paddling making fun of your yacht" he sticking to his word
@Romy Taylor it's funny alot of slick shit EM said back then he low-key sticks to TIL this day
“ima still be the mad rapper whether I got money or not//as long as I’m on pills and I got plenty of pot// I’ll be in a canoe battlin, makin fun of ya yacht”
@@dualreality I knew I butchered it thanks for the save
Bad Influence is a classic Em joint
Absolute garbage
I like the album, but I kinda knew y’all wasn’t going to like it.
I loved the album. I also knew they wouldn’t love it but I thought they’d atleast like it better than Kamikaze. They basically said it was between revival and Kamikaze, sheesh.
Michael Maratta right I’m confused by them saying it’s across between revival and kamikaze. It was way better than both. I only didn’t like one song on this album and that’s in too deep. I feel like they need to listen to the album more because when I first heard it I thought it was trash, and feel like that’s because I was listening to the album with only two I’m hours of sleep, and driving while playing the album.
stevieb274 I think that’s the thing with Eminem’s work these days, i think it takes a few listens because I truly believe his word play and technical skills as a rapper are so advanced that people don’t really catch his bars right away. Like they said he wasn’t saying anything on Godzilla on the fast part? Was it clever? Not really, but it still made sense. It wasn’t just a mesh of words that rhyme. “100% of you is a fifth of a percent of me...” he was just showcasing his skills. I just think Eminem is bored at this point that he tries to out do himself. It’s so easy to point out the corny bars, because it’s hard to pick apart the lyrics and pull the hard bars out like “I’m not gonna let 'em treat the paper like I'm chopping a letter, Dre'll tell you how I shred
So when you refer to the guy next to the Doc, you meant (document) shredder”....maybe newer Eminem just isn’t for them anymore. They didn’t like that Don Toliver hook? That shit was so smooth.
Reason why Em always needs to prove himself, and I think that black people have a problem with a white rapper expressing his personality and we want Me to be black or hood. Wordplay and skill was crazy and I feel like some lines we're meant to be funny but are seen as corny. 4:44 was dope but not the peak it was "black". Our race would rather embrace mumble rap to try and hold on to that black ID
@@stevieb274 I've already commented on this but how is everyone missing Never Love Again. Like literally no reviewers are talking about it. It's so well written and the beat is fire. Sorry for randomly talking about it lol, but it has to be said.
I actually really liked No regrets
Me too. His flow and the pockets he got in was too nice and that beat was nice and mellow 🔥👌🏼
That one kinda reminded me of marshal mathers. I like his laid back flow on that one, as well as never love again. He even did the layered vocals briefly on never love again, just like he used to on mmlp.
Best hook in the whole album
Eduardo Madrigal yea I cant understand why they didn’t like this one. Don Toliver sounded good, best and flow was good, his lyrics were great “they miss the old me, I think they want me to OD on codeine, they want my life in turmoil like In ‘03”. This was Marshall rapping and being open about stuff.
Same I believe the lyrical content is great and Don Toliver is great on any hook
Damn, surprised at how little love "Lock it Up" got. Especially considering Em didn't do the hook on that one.
Yeah thought they would've rocked with that song, my favorite off the album
They are the most genuine hip hop review on RUclips because they are all good friends just conversing and challenging each other it’s real and feels natural like your sitting in the room with them just spectating good guys with good taste in hip hop and great chemistry Yinz are the shit
They got a shout out from Kendrick a while ago too!
@@MrJordwalk Link?
Facts! I would really like them to continue incorporating younger guests perspectives.

This is a DEHH vid about it: ruclips.net/video/EFLSe8SMMbk/видео.html
What up 412
Tbh ‘Never Love Again’ is a track I’ll always go back to.
It was an all around well produced song. Something everyone can play, if they dont want angry, cursing, tongue in cheek eminem.
People say, "Eminem is so trash, he cant make good music," but then when he puts out GOOD music, they still shit on it. That's why I hope eminem unaccommodates. All these people are there to try to knock eminem off his pedestal with their so called "criticism," and I hope eminem knows that perfectly clear at this point.
Few years back Myke said Em should do his own hooks, this year he saying that Em should get other people on his hooks. This is what confuses him. But Myke is right, Em should do what he wants and stop worrying about critics. That's how they get paid.
Let’s be real when they start talking about Crook’s verse 13:21 they were impressed with “more shocking than a pissed of Blanka” - if Em where to write a bar like that they wouldn’t even flinch.
@@angelayala7922 Yeah that could be a possibility and honestly I get that when you hear what are considered some of these "corny" bars to you or X person it may be corny but could X person have ever thought of that? I guarantee and bet money that FUCK NO they couldn't and couldnt think of something even half as good so to me at this point niggas really need to stop going in on some of these bars. The Fly like a zipper bar THATS some shit that has been said so yeah that is a corny bar but the Long John Silver bar I honestly aint heard anyone say some shit like that before so its like you get it and think okay I get but I aint gonna sit jere and call it corny if I aint heard it elsewhere. Idk its just a random opinion and thought hahaha
There isn’t a binary choice of, do own hooks or get someone else to do win hooks. Before when Mike said that it was because of the super jarring pop hooks that fucked up the flow of the song. Now he is saying it because the hooks Eminem does, to Mike, are bad.
Really it just boils down too, please do good hooks Eminem.
And on this album the best hooks were the ones that features did
@@broskiandthehomie7362 thank you for understanding context.
But, myke liked the hook on I will, which em handled himself
Strong agree with Myke on the fast rapping. The fast flow is cool every once in a while, on Rap God or when Busta does it. But the lyricism is way more important. If the wordplay isn't up to par, I don't give a fuck how fast it is. Rapping fast is not a display of skill.
It is because everybody can’t do it…. It takes skill to do it but I getchu rappin fast overall don’t mean nothing if you ain’t saying anything
I’m gonna have to disagree with the lyricism, he had doubles and triple entendre on almost every song
@New Life Energy Anybody can learn to rap fast, actually. It just takes practice.
@@blissfulinsomniac5711thats like saying being good at free throws isnt of a skill because “anyone” can do it through practice
@@fyoutube2294 It is a skill that can be learned and perfected through practice, yep. Anyone who has been doing it long enough (hence, practicing it) could do it.

"stop being so angry. You're white and rich." LMAOOOOOO
Then when hes tame, "I like shady when hes angry" if I was em I'd just stick to unaccommodating.
@@edwin99901 two different things. Eminem being angry at his critics for calling him out on being "out-dated, boring and the primordial oldman screaming at the sky" is different from saying "i like slim shady" Slim shady used to be edgy for a reason. He was making social points. Now em is the embodiment of the white girl in class that says "im not like other girls". These two statements aren't mutually exclusive.
@@KingAzi-tw8nq logical fallacy. Most "social points" he made on the Eminem Show were clearly aimed at critics and parents, as well as rappers trying to start stuff with him. This is no different.
@@MrShaiya96 my thoughts.. and mmlp as well..
@@MrShaiya96 i agree. The conservative counter culture was a worthy enemy of parodying and ridicule. That counter culture is dead. Its 20 years later and eminem's subject matter hasnt evolved. Theres more nuance to this subject. Just because em said "fuck parents" 20 years ago dosent mean we cant criticise him for saying it now. Especially when the culture has drastically shifted with the rise of the internet. Em hasnt evolved and god forbid someone reminds hin of it
Y’all fuckin slept on the Paak song. How did it only get a one second mention. Easily the best here
Paak did so much better on Bandana
They slept on castle and arose, two of eminems best songs ever, on the revival review.

Great track. Wish it had a 3rd verse
Sooooo no mention of “You Gon Learn”. This review is stale.

Shoutout to Rod aka Modest Media
leveled up on production value
I wanted to revisit this review because I've had a few months to sit with this album. The more I listened the more I enjoyed it. I think we all have so many expectations of Em after listening for 20 years that we're not even sure what we want anymore. For instance, if you take away the hook from Stepdad that song was VINTAGE Em!!!! Exaggerated storytelling, funny, riding the beat perfectly - that Alchemist beat was beautiful btw. But yet y'all complained about the song just cuz of the hook. And I literally had to wait 16 minutes into the review to hear you say anything about Em's bars. I don't know why you guys mostly focus on stuff you don't like when it comes to Em. Mike says he likes 95% of the album but 95% of his comments were about what he didn't like. Just something to think about. Hopefully someone reads this so you can keep it in mind when you review an album from Eminem in the future. I don't think this is one of Eminem's best albums but this review was depressing af. Too much focus on what you didn't like, which would be cool if you guys really didn't like the project, but that wasn't the case.
I believe this was one em best albums after kamikaze which is a dope Album to me
And step dad did remind me of a slim shady lp song
This album better than i feel ya’ll give it credit 4... some of what ya’ll don’t like are vibes that made him famous. Some of his bars aren’t meant 2 be taken serious, he was always the jokey silly poke fun talk shit angry rapper now it seems ppl want him to talk about artwork or be happy all the time I’m confused. He talks trump he talks about his family his haters his critics pop stars - When other rappers talk about drugs all their career we don’t judge them with the same level of disdain
The greatness he reached and the bar he set for himself is too great. Now its underwhelming and he just sounds annoying and old. This whole decade it's been like that. Wheras look at the ART Kendrick put out while remaining a true rapper in the age of sound changing so much. It just feels like em should've dropped the mic long ago to not taint his legacy.
@Romy Taylor that's the thing. No one expects it so just drop the fucking mic
I thought it was a good album. Not super consistent but a lot more songs I liked. Premonition, You Gon Learn, Lock It Up (club banger), Yah Yah, Darkness, Godzilla were dope. Got better with subsequent listens. Not a fan of Stepdad and Those Nights, mostly bc I felt the hooks were wack... loved Ringer, Lucky You, and Fall off Kamikaze but not a lot else and hated a lot more off that album.
@@carloshernandez3177 Or just stop listening if you've lost taste for Eminem's music. I mean damn. He has a large fanbase still loving his music judging by that #1 he just earned. And he still enjoys making music. Why should he stop? Do you ask Nas to stop? Jay-Z to stop? Ice Cube to stop? Snoop Dogg to stop? E-40 to stop? Ain't none of these dudes reaching the bar(much less topping the bar) they already set for themselves. So what! They legends in the hiphop game.
@Romy Taylor no, no one expects that. Hes just just outdated and I enjoy part of his shit but some lyrics are corny and hes just not in the scene no more. Better to quit

That's just one simple example. But please understand that not ALL opinions are subjective. Some of it is just plain wrong and unacceptable. Stop the cap 😂😂🙏
Best Em album in a long time, great ad-libs, production. Had a bit of concept, theme he stuck to. I'd say 13/17 of tracks were enjoyable.
I don't get why everyone says it has great production. It felt cheap at times and the mix was rough at times. Especially Yah Yah was ear rape
I agree, 13/17 were very well done.
Just speculation:
I think he's at a point where the hooks are meant to be shit. It's like he's countering catchy hooks, and would rather we focus on the verses (opposite of popular music). Or he just forgot how to make hooks 🤷🏻♂️
Really? Godzilla especially had a weak beat, only getting carried by bars
@@BeardedKingface Thats a terrible idea since that makes the tracks less listenable and just sounds like a weak excuse
Bearded Kingface thats a lame ass excuse for those trash hooks
"100% of you is a fifth of a percent of me." Em Godzilla
His lyrics made sense to me on that fast rapping part.
All of it does people are hating
Matt Lesner right, like I don’t get why people say he’s not saying anything. Are we reading lyrics anymore? Like of course it’s not deep, but it’s not like it’s just a jumble of random words, I think he did it pretty well and skillfully “You're bringin' the killer within me out of me
You don't want to be the enemy of the demon who went in me...” ehh whatever. Not everyone’s gonna like it.
And be on the receiving end of me
Brooklyn Medina well, sometimes you have to when the rapper is using a lot of word play. There’s a rhyme scheme in “premonition” where there’s an acronym after he says “I was once considered the G O A T” and then he proceeds the rhyme scheme with starting off each bar with each first letter of GOAT. So yea it’s not all about that but eminem is a crafty word smith and you’re not gonna catch all his references the first listen, sometimes the first few listens too.
Brooklyn Medina ok, I guess there aren’t any black word smiths that appreciate the craft of writing rhymes as a technical style 🤨 please don’t make this a black and white thing or a European and African thing. Eminem also has emotions in his music and is good at conveying a message, e.g the song “Darkness”. You didn’t have to get that deep about this whole race thing and it being a “concern”because I’m into a word smith. Whatever bro. I’m not gonna bother responding back again. I don’t have time for an ignorant topic and about where hip hop derived from and African roots. I know about hip hop. All I stated was I liked what Eminem did with the fast rapping and that it made sense to me. Peace, have a good night.
Did no one catch crooks "John Wilkes, thats who im in the booth like. Aye Bruh, i go Ham for dead presidents." AyeBruhHam Abraham.
I thought that was slick
Abrahamigohan ? Whos that
@@gleba080 right, and its a low hanging fruit, "no one needed to say" type of wordplay.
Really corny
Lame
Everything I record is over your head like a boom mic was the line of the album
I think this album was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nobody liked “you gon learn”? 😂
For real it's easily one of the best tracks on the album at least Ken almost named as a favorite
Yes very surprised too
Literally the only song on the album I return to
The3rdElement really? It’s a solid 11 or 12 songs on the album for me
I liked the album. personally I like it better than kamikaze
No surprise about this. They never like albums anymore 😂
The album I’m looking forward to this year is Run the Jewels 4
@ABSTRAKT UNIVERSE Em would somehow fuck it up with sticato flow
I think what Em really needs to do more than anything is make a project with just one really dope producer that he has chemistry with making all the beats. We’ve seen Royce work with Premo, Joell with Illmind and Apollo Brown, which was some of my favorite projects from them.
4:44 was super dope in part because No ID made every beat. I’m not saying that Em could make a project on that level, but if he locked in with One top producer, I think it would be a great improvement
Relapse was pretty much that, and it turned out great. Another album entirely produced by Dre would be so fucking dope, but I don't know if that's possible at this point.
Dude he's got the fucking Alchemist as his DJ, he should tell him hey let's go to the studio and make like a 10-12 track album.
A lot of artists might benefit from taking this approach tbh, Eminem lacks consistency, a decent exec producer could provide that
Yeah, Em with Dr Dre or Alchemist would be really dope.
You're right man. Spot on. But if he actually locks in with just one producer (preferably Dre or Alchemist) I still feel he's capable of making an album at least at par with 4:44 if not superior. Cuz like Mike said the hooks stood out like a sore fucking thumb on this one. That said, the flows were there the rapping was on point and a major improvement in his bars too from Revival and Kamikaze. So he just needs to ensure his hooks are catchy to his boys in the room and NO ONE ELSE. But apart from that this is definitely the direction that he needs to be taking henceforth.
Marsh,I will,Yah Yah,Darkness and the intro were my favorite tracks
The song I will gave me a headache from all the similes and doubles
I will should be displayed in a art museum.
When I saw Alchemist on the production I thought he had listenend to Beezy and got some dark grimy shit. Well, didn't hear the Alchemist touch on Stepdad at all..
Same
Most disappointing song in a while
The best verse on this album was Royce's verse on Yah Gone Learn. Album had terrible hooks, mediocre production, and mostly boring content. Like another Em album.
It’s really weird that y’all didn’t like the production. One of the best Eminem albums ever in terms of beats.
Slo Mo kamakaze beats was better
!!?!
قوڵپەی ئـاگرین nah kamikaze didn’t have better beats, this had hard asf beats
Slo Mo not much of an accomplishment, beats sound too outdated
l Z I How are Unaccomodating, Premonition and Lock It Up outdated with the trap beats? Having “outdated” production isn’t even a bad thing lol. It’s just using old-style production.
Slo Mo they either use very basic sounding bling era styled mixtape beats or when they try to go modern it sounds like they’re trying to go modern and it doesn’t have anything special about it’s either basic rap battle beat or basic trap beat
I actually like the watching pupils get cornier/cornea line. That's legitimately clever as hell, but that eyeball line leading up to it sounds too forced
But did you catch the whole school references he was making and why he also said “pupils”? I thought that whole school and class rhyme scheme was so dope, that’s what makes the “pupils” line hit harder.
@@Shaolinmike1994 Yeah of course I noticed
Same that line is clever as fuck.
The cornier line could have been great if it wasnt set up with "Like eyeballs...". It was too on the nose and make it resemble bad dad jokes. Like maybe "eyeing these clones of mine, becoming cornier than I" or something.
Am I the only one who thought it was a double entendre?: Eyeball/ I ball
Shout out to Beezy dentist for the thumbnail.
If this isn’t the number one comment in a few hours imma be upset 😂😂
They changed the thumbnail lol
@@RoddyRodbb what was the thumbnail before?
@@NickyDusse a shot of Beezy laughing
Its not like anybody’s arguing that he can rap its just the fact that this man could be doing way more experimental creative shit and I feel like he’s just like “i can make words rhyme better look at me this is REAAAL RAP”
Em is just real passionate about the art of rap itself. There's still a big market for that but I agree. I would like for him to expand his sound and experiment a bit more.
Afro Shinobi definitely idk why he’s trying to be pop, Honestly wanna hear him on some grimey ass shit, i need Em and Danny Brown or With RTJ something !
@elton plata hey, I enjoy em and this album. To answer your question, though, the skylar grey stuff is pop. It's not a hip hop sound. And stepdad and Never Love again
Em can't take criticism.
@@achronos178 That about sums it up. He's been so used to people kissing his ass his whole career.
Little Engine is one of my favourite tracks
Mines too I waas like damn they didn't like it? 🤦♂️ but its all subjective, I get it
Alfonso Santamaria after their verdict of ‘Venom’ I thought they might clown this hook as well lmao
@@bradleyharrison3946 yeah that's another Chorus I mess with, it's probably just our cup of tea. I dont remember when they spoke about Venom, but yeah they're just not into it
Alfonso Santamaria Yeah, Overall I was surprised how positive their review was tbh
Yeah that was one of my favourites they didnt marinate on it at all
No love for 'Never Love Again' 🤷🏾♂️
I thought it was a cool track. Didn’t like it at first, but after realizing he was talking about drugs I was like ok, this is kinda good.
Underrated gem
That low key one the best tracks
@@Shaolinmike1994 Yeah when I listened to it again I realised he nails the doubles so well that if you go into it with that "oof ANOTHER love track" mindset you may miss it.
It went over their heads, the problem is also the beat choice and hook
On You gon learn Em said
“When you refer to the guy next to the Doc you meant shredder”
Document shedder
Who thinks of this shit
Dw man they catching basic shit and going crazy, but they ain't catching any of Em's crazy shit. It's too much
"Nothing comes to mind, besides the number 90, cuz since 06 you flipped my fucking life, upside down." You know, because 90 flipped upside down is 06. Eminem - Farewell
"We're on that ninth cloud, two insane lovebirds, I should fly south, cuz man "am i great" (migrate), ain't lyin to myself." Eminem - Farewell
I could list lines all day that these dudes will never catch in their life lol. Em is too good
No disrespect to the fans and I'm also speaking as an Eminem fan but I agree with DEHH, when you try to please people too much, it comes off as bad, move forward, evolve and get what you're into. It's like what Tyler' The Creator said, Forget what they want, give them what "YOU" want.
The review I was most looking forward, the review that I did not expect 😕🤷♂️
Me too man, I didn’t think they would be this disappointed in it 😣 I personally loved it and couldn’t wait to see their review. I knew they wouldn’t necessarily love it, but I thought they would’ve liked it better than atleast Kamikaze, which was also a good album. This had so much more for me than Kamikaze. Oh well.
Let’s be real when they start talking about Crook’s verse 13:21 they were impressed with “more shocking than a pissed of Blanka” - if Em where to write a bar like that they wouldn’t even flinch. The bar is too high
It's kinda like they had already made up their minds to hate Em. Saying the album title gave high hopes & it came crashing is just lazy...
They said it's ok which it is at best
No one talked about any of the hardest bars on the (rap) album.
Maybe none of them have ever seen Alf (not even a bit 😉). Not one person realized that "Darkness" is entirely a double entendre, every bar on it was a double and not a peep out of anyone on this 'hip-hop' channel.
This wasn't an album review, it was a very poorly disguised clout chasing session.
I can't count how many times I listened to I will, Marsh, You gon learn, Lock it up, Yah yah, Godzilla, No Regrets. So good. Surprised they didn't like the album.
I agree on the bad hooks to some of the songs but as a whole, the album brought me back as an Em fan. His bars made me look past some of the hooks. He got some bangers on here though. Nice review!!!
@George Washington 3 decades deep into Eminem's career you ain't gonna get much more than "bar-heavy bangers."
Papadoc1981 Nah bruh this album is insane
@George Washington There are too many life sucking lines for me to say he's a clever rapper on this. Just about every song has at least one line that makes me want to skip.
Also to me I thought the whole album was Great, it took a minute for certain songs to grow on me in the beginning when I first listened to it but now I like them. I would even say it's one of his best albums overall and of this decade.
I totally agree. I place it behind MMLP and TES.
3 years later, I gotta lay down after hearing this shitty opinion
Right now the way I see it Eminem can’t go back to being that emotional real raw rapper from his earlier albums because he’s already told his life story there’s no more content he can pull from his life to make those kind of albums anymore so he became a very technical rapper. I don’t get why people expect that from him anymore, I think he should just make cool rappy rap albums make more songs with his rap homies he always dope in a feature. Do more songs with new upcomers like Joyner, Young MA, and Juice (R.I.P).
Totally agree, and if I want old Eminem I’ll just bump his old albums. I just want him to continue to keep making music. I really enjoyed this album.
sonnguru I really think this is some of Eminem’s best work as a lyricist. There were so many dope rhyme schemes and word breakdowns. Like when he said “ I'm not gonna let 'em treat the paper like I'm chopping a letter
Dre'll tell you how I shred
So when you refer to the guy next to the Doc, you meant (document) shredder”.
Em probably doesn’t find it fun to go with simpler punchlines and schemes that sound better like he used to. I believe he probably finds more fun in making really complex punchlines and schemes with multiple meanings. I see it as him challenging himself to get better because at this point he’s done it all critical acclaim, topping the charts, breaking records, creating a huge fan base, inspiring other rappers, etc. Eminem has been in the rap game for over 20 years and he’s still not sick or tired of rapping. Sure his recent albums haven’t been the most sonically amazing but you can’t deny his lyrical ability isn’t sharper than ever. At this point I just want him to keep rapping until he doesn’t want to anymore. His legacy is and always will be cemented in the rap wall of fame.
Shadowolfy yup 100% I think he only sees himself as his only competition now. So he finds new ways to rhyme and he rapped faster on Godzilla and broke another record just to beat his old rap god record lol. This is all fun for him.
@@Shadowolfy55 The problem is his shit is so complex people miss his bars. He just needs to stop the poppy songs, because that's where his corny bars come in the picture.
I feel like this album is a mixture of all the Eminem's of the past generations. You got the Early Slim Shady style, Serial Killer Em, Club Em, Beefing Em, Controversial Em, Rap God Em. I think Eminem looked at his past albums and realized that for the past two decades every Eminem fan doesn't like everything he does so rather than alienate them he put out a mixture of all of his styles and I think it works for him at his age because there are new Em fans and old Em fans and I think its fair that both have some favorites and not so favorite tracks from him.
Like Em said in premonition people dont Know what they want from him, these people are complaining AGAIN of the things they complained about in his last album that he has now changed to please them. EMinem didnt produce any beats on this album cos he took y'all advice and got producers to do it, he just added touches to help bring out his rapping , I am glad he did cos his touches suited his rap style.
Em should stop trying to pls these critics and do what ever he likes bcos they will continue to complain, truth is all his critics including people on this podcast want him to just stop bcos he is white, their favorite rappers are not even half as good as Em.
Yall are literally my favorite review channel I'm surprised ya'll didn't like this! This was much a better version of Kamikaze and production was off the chain compared to his latest albums, wordplay was insane, I honestly thought his hooks were great as were used to getting pop hooks these past years. Really felt like this has been the best version of reborn Em.
The hooks were better for sure. Best hooks since Recovery
Relapse still better than MTBMB
@@traplover6357 honestly this album has enough to even surpass relapse but to each their own
SkrewedUp_Productions kamikaze was a great album
A A Relapse recovery mmlp2 and mtbmb are all great bodys of work
that bar from Crooked "more shocking than droppin a boom box in bath water" - he said that shit 20 years ago in Step Up with Kurupt
Like y’all really think Jordan his rookie year is the same Jordan year 15. Nah, still a beast though. Like I think Em gets a bad rep when it comes to his simpler bars Bc its simple word play in reality but some view it as corny lines. And the irony is they’ll listen Legends like lil Wayne & Kanye West and will never bat an eye at their wordplay. Its called wordplay for a reason. Ngl his hook game had been lacked luster lately. Great on occasion but often trying too hard. Like Em I’m sorry but you can’t sing that high keep it mellow. Keep in mind he has a marketing team and pop rap charts well with pop fans. And I’m all for experimenting but I see why the fast nonsense hooks and singing hooks bring the song down but I thought overall he was pretty decent on this album with the hooks. Like Em could care less about the hooks sometimes Bc the lyrics are filled with wordplay, crazy syllables, double sometimes triple Entendres, dope metaphors etc. like he’s a lyric kinda guy. Reverting back to my point, he’s in year 24. Been on the map for 21 years which has spanned 4 decades. The canvass has been fully covered. Like Idk what to say at this point. You have to play the song back to back on repeat to catch everything and when you thought you caught every lyric you’ll find something new a few years later. At his stage in his career lyricism overload is his go to. Idk what else to say... if you don’t fuck with his new shit then bump his old shit. Damn, that was a long rant, my b.
Very well said, people go way too hard on Eminem and they want this but then they want that, and he gives it all but it’s still never good enough. Not many artists are making songs like “Darkness”. No one in the mainstream is making music that important and in depth. No one in the mainstream is giving these hard hitting bars. He gets frowned upon way too much. When he’s gone, people are going to learn to appreciate more of what he gave us. He’s done it all and still going at this age and will body just about anyone on the mic.
eminem's production and hooks are a major issue, and have been major issues for all his albums since relapse. what i find annoying about em is he's got griselda, alchemist, dj premier through royce, and he still has these strange ass poppy ass beats. PAUL ROSENBERG, GET WESTSIDE GUNN AND ALCHEMIST TO PRODUCE THE NEXT EMINEM ALBUM. Let westside gunn pick out the beats
Premonition
Unaccommodating
You Gon Learn
In To Deep
Godzilla
Darkness
Leaving Heaven
Yah Yah
Marsh
Little Engine
Lock It Up
No Regrets
I will
These are all dope tracks. The hate be real lol
I 100% agree with Myke that rapping fast isn't inherently impressive. To me, speed rapping is like a van halen style guitar solo. It's only impressive if you know how to use it and how to craft a coherent song around it. It gets boring really fast if it's overused and it does not in any way excuse mediocre or wack writing. And on Godzilla Em's verse was really forgettable.
How you gonna say it was overused when it's literally 1 verse from 1 song 🤣🤣🤣
Im surprised for a hip hop heavy channel, they didnt take time to at least read his lyrics. That last min on godzilla he spazzed. It was only until the ‘toilet bowl’ line where it got a little ridiculous. But before that, he was saying some cool shit. But he was showcasing his skill. Im sorry, i disagree, godzilla was 🔥
Nice review! You guys would really benefit from getting a microphone for each guy. I had to keep turning the volume up and down.
Or maybe utilizing a little compression on the vocals
When I check for Em I’m not looking for the ability to bump and bop my head because he’s not known for great beat making I’m listening for his lyricism that’s what I judge his artistic value on. For example you don’t judge Picasso on the realism of his paintings.
Underrated comment
He does make great beats tho generally, he just can’t choose em half the time
I was literally waiting for this review over all the others. Even in your lukewarm responses y'all savage as hell lol. To each his own though. I thought the album was dope. And I haven't listened to an Eminem album since Encore. Favorite tracks are Godzilla, I will, Yah Yah, You gon' learn & No Regrets.
Damn, I love the album but that shit myke said at the end was so true.
AGREED 100%
Excited to see everybody hate on it except Feefo
Gardner Mobley those are my favorite type of videos lol
Myke didn't hate on it
I love that you guys can be brutally honest without being hateful. Thank you for that. I just have to say that there were several moments on this album that gave me "old Eminem" vibes...that classic Em that everyone keeps asking for. I heard it on I Will, Stepdad, Premonition and You Gon Learn. It made me happy.
