Soldier

come on u dont need to say that just because u have a different opinion doesn't mean ur trolling

You really couldn't tell he was trolling.

Irony at it's finest.

He's screaming during some parts, therefore the song sucks dick. Hurts my fucking ears with his shotty voice yelling into them.

First of all, I know you're trolling. But i'll go EminemBase on this one

Some screaming rocks, and some screaming sucks. Personally i'm a big fan of Eminem's screaming but not Recovery, the screaming on almost every Recovery track and most HTS tracks (minus Take From Me and Above The Law) sucked and sounded forced. But on the real, i'm probably the only one in the forum that has Soldier, Amityville and Say Goodbye Hollywood in his top 15. Perhaps cause I love metal music. Not any screaming sucks. But the screaming on most tracks from Recovery sounded fake and aweful. Screaming in music is a hit or miss, if it's performed well then the track's gon' be something incredible but if it wasn't it WILL suck. There's no "average" level of screaming, screaming in music go up or falls down the stairs. Soldier, Amityville, Criminal and Marshall Mathers are examples of good screaming, all in my top 15 Eminem tracks of all time.

I don't think it sounds forced on H:TS. If anything, Em sounds more focused and his flows seem much tighter than on Recovery. On Recovery, he doesn't yell that much. I won't call it screaming, because that's not what it is, I was making fun of people who DO call it screaming (incorrectly), since screaming is an entirely different vocal style all together. He was "screaming" on Above The Law, that's really the only song where he actually sounds like he was yelling into the mic. The rest of the songs, it sounds like he's rapping loud and aggressively, yes, but for the most part he's not really yelling or "screaming." And as for Recovery, well, only a small handful of tracks actually featured him yelling.

The last half of the third verse is legendary. I always listen to The Kiss before Soldier. Makes it a LOT better and epic.

The reason people don't mind his "screaming" on this track is because he's screaming for a reason. He doesn't do it on every single song on TES, so when he does it on here you know why. Whereas when you have him screaming pretty much everything, whether it's a love letter to some bitch or the most angry lyric in the world, it destroys any meaning behind it if he just does it all the bloody time.

This. Like NO other Eminem skit, it seems like it intimately belongs to the song.

Just gave Kiss and Soldier a listen. Dope.

Soldier is awesome, it's my personal favourite. Epic beat, very well written song, his flows are great, and the shouting part, you know, it feels like the shouting belongs to the song. To the mood the song is in, just like in The Way I Am. You can feel he needs to get something of his chest in these songs, it's natural screaming. At least, that's the way I feel it's like.
