MMLP2 is Eminem's GKMC

[SG.]

We heard long ago that Em was inspired by good kid, m.A.A.d city.

Now look at this:

Berzerk and The Recipe were both songs where the artists worked with their idols and went back to music that they listened to which inspired them to rap (Beastie Boys and West coast).

Survival and Swimming Pools were "conformist" songs which were made to sell. They worked.

Rap God and Backseat Freestyle were both rappity-rap hype songs over very hard production.

All of the songs mentioned have completely different production styles, produced by different people. Add this to the fact that Kendrick's the only rap feature… we could be getting a classic.

Swimming Pools was a lot more clever than Survival though

Swimming Pools was a lot more clever than Survival though

I agree but they're built on the same principle.

[Solace]

Fair enough

I heard about the rumours but I don't believe it, The Recipe is not on the album, backseat freestyle is the most self-explantory song on the album and it has absolutely nothing to do with rap god, and like solace said, swimming pools is a lot more clever than survival.

but if it's true, we might have another classic

[RayMcTechGuy]

I have to disagree. I mean yeah, he was inspired by GKMC, but I don't think he's making tracks and putting out songs in the same order, level and ideas as Kendrick. It just doesn't make sense to me.
But...
The Recipe > Berzerk
Swimming Pools = Survival
Backseat Freestyle < Rap God

[SG.]

Plus both of the deluxes are 2 CD's…

[1LynguisticMind]

The Recipe < Berzerk
Swimming Pools > Survival
Backseat Freestyle < Rap God (this one is close though, Backseat is my favorite from GKMC)

Lol at you comparing a bonus song to a single.

the recipe (BONUS) >>>>>>>>> berzek
swimming pools >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> survival
backseat <<< rap god, and even if it's a good song, backseat is arguarbly the worst track on gkmc


edit: mononym isn't even funny anymore. like solace said, sp is a lot more clever than survival, and probably a lot more clever than berzerk and rap god
