I love Survival. Played it 14 times in a row after first listen until my ears hurt.

I love the hook. Its short, not corny or cringeworthy. Its from a decent singer and it would translate great live.

I LOVE the beat. TES is my fav Em album and the nostalgic feelings the guitars give is awesome. Add to that the absolute STADIUM feel of the rest of the beat and it doesn't compete with rap beats no more. Its on some Bon Jovi, 70's rockstar vibe shit and i LOVE it. I just wish i can hear his band play this live *sigh*

the flow is so so. I like it, but the "stylistic evolution" mantra does make me a lil unimpressed.

The only complaint i got is the lyrics themselves. Technically (punches, wordplay, multies etc) they are good to great. Content is a lil tired, rappers rapping about rap-esquire.

Now, the reason i complain about the lyrics is Eminem is my favorite artist ever. So, as a stan, i want him to compete with Black album Jay, Love Below Andre, Section 80 Kendrick and stuck in the 90's legends. I don't really have a preference on content. I just care about execution (lyrics wise that is)

I think its a good track, 7.5-8/10.

I'm hoping we get a single like The Real Slim Shady, Without Me, We Made You, etc.

You might be very disappointed in the upcoming future then. Remember to be open-minded, we have no clue what this album's gonna be about this time around.

We're gonna rock this house until we knock it down
So turn the volume loud, cause it's mayhem 'til the a.m.
So baby make just like K-Fed and let yourself go, let yourself go
Say fuck it before we kick the bucket
Life's too short to not go for broke

Go Berzerk!

Some of you guys...idek. Especially the stupid OP. So ignorant.

I think this song is great. I don't want a whole album of it but its far from bad in any way.

Honestly, I can't even hear half of what he's yelling. I used to love Eminem in his first 3 albums. Now though, I struggle to find any rhythm in his flow. The punch lines are awkward, especially for a 40 year old, like when he yells, ''I need to wipe by butt, I just shit on the mic.''

There is No rhythm, just all over the place. Put it this way. If this was how Eminem sounded when he first started, you would have never got hooked on him.

I really thought he was done with shouting but it looks like I was wrong... Hey Em, what happened to you and your creativity? :coffee:

Because he's obviously going to have a really laid-back flow on a stadium song for fucking CALL OF DUTY, a game about SHOOTING THINGS UNTIL THEY DIE OR EXPLODE.

When Survival and My Life's verses are relatively in the same style, only Survival is more polished. And here comes the backpedal.

Some acrimony you have goin on. Anyways, yes I'd still wager 2014. Even if it came out tomorrow, my prediction still would have only been off by a few months. I don't think this was the lead single..

The punch lines sound smooth and don't sound forced or awkward at all in Survival tho. You dumb HopsinShadie? You complain about him not making music like he used to but then you say it sounds awkward for a 40 year old to say that stuff. You contradicting fuck.
