What I'm loving about the MMLP2 era songs....

[OMEGA]

There's something in particular I'm loving about these MMLP2 era songs (I'm talking specifically about Berzerk and Rap God), and it's how fresh they sound. I still love Relapse and Recovery, but looking back at these two albums, they both felt pretty safe, specially the later. There's nothing wrong with that, yet at the same time, I always wanted Eminem to do something a little more unique and experiment more with his records. When Survival dropped, not gonna lie, I was disappointed by how similar it sounded to Recovery, even though I still liked it. Thankfully the two next songs have been so far everything I've wanted from Em.

Yeah, I just love how both Berzerk and Rap God sound. Both are unlike anything I've heard from Em on the past, yet familiar enough to feel like great additions that belong in his repertoire. I like how these two songs are anything but safe; he throws out of the window the typical 16 bars, hook, bars, hook, etc. structure, comes up with new cool new concepts, a new array of flows and deliveries -- that unlike some of Em's recent songs -- sound natural and fit the tracks perfectly, etc.

Finally, I love how these songs remind me in parts of the original MMLP, but they try to do something else too instead of just being sequels or copies of songs from that album, which would have been the easiest choice for Em, but he said fuck it and decided to experiment more, giving us Berzerk and Rap God as a result.

Fucking awesome.

And bear in mind that these songs are friggin' singles which usually tend to be as safe as possible. Can't wait to hear what weird shit he has on the album. I'm also very interested to hear "The Monster" tomorrow. I'm expecting another atypical song, maybe as a response to the "mainstream-ness" of LTWYL.

This.

By the way, I really love Rap God, but everyday I love Berzerk even more. The sounding of that song is just amazing. The Rubin production was spot on.

I've replayed Berzerk god knows how many times. Still as awesome as ever.

I remembered the first time I've heard it I loved it, but it sounded too messy. After more listens, this thing is cohesive as heck, and it sounds so fresh.

[Kill You]

I agree too. I love how these songs sound above all. And how Em sounds on them. He sounds very comfortable and in his zone on these beats. Unlike Recovery where he seems to be struggling. With these songs he's not trying too hard and the music is actually coming out a lot better because he seems so sure.

I feel the same way. The songs sound so fresh but at the same time so familiar. He found an amazing balance and hopefully the rest of the album reciprocates the same feel.

[VINTAGƎ]

I'm hoping for a cohesive album. Berzerk and Rap God, although different, feel like they could be on the same album. Survival, although I like it, feels out of place. Hopefully when I play the album start to finish it'll feel more in place.

I wish he had one stunning verse on Berzerk and just went completely ham like in Rap God. I don't like Survival though. Unfortunately, ''The Monster'' will be another generic song along with ''Asshole'' and ''Headlights.''

But have high hopes for Love Game, Evil Twin, Rhyme or Reason, So Much Better, and Legacy

[TheBoss123]

berzerk and Rap God are great. Rap God to me, is basically was his way of telling us this album is going to be amazing haha.

[Hopsinshadie]

The worst song on the album other than Survival is bad guy. It will try to sound like ''Bad Guys Always Die.''

Legacy will also be a disappointment. Will sound like ''Survival'' and serve no real purpose.

I better not say too much. I may have already heard some of it.

Here's hoping the survival that's on the album is different from the one we've heard.

Shit if u believe that........then i'll kill U

[rapaddict92]

I feel like "recovery" and "hell the sequel" inspired a lot of artists to go that extra mile, put there heart in it, just go harder over all. feels like the hiphop /rap game was altered in way after them both. hope mmlp2 does the same.

It's just....hope
