Lighters

Postby J.R. » Jun 20th, '11, 22:05

Wow, I'm seeing alot of hate here for Lighters. Hell, someone posted a video with people saying they pretended it never happened. It doesn't go with the album for sure; But I think it's personally one of my all time favorite EM song's. It's emotional; and even though it doesn't flow with the album, I would be disappointed if the track never saw light of day.

I hate how people say it doesn't fit with the album. Does that mean Take From Me doesn't fit with the album as well? I would seriously get annoyed if every single track was like Welcome 2 Hell or Above the Law.

Agreed. Bad can get Bad on an emotional level & same with evil.

It's emotionally Evil& Bad. Look at it like that.

I don't really care it doesn't fit. It's a good song, even if not perfect. There are some things I don't like, like this line:

This rap game's nipple is mine for the milking


Sounds shitty, like rhymed by some noob.

Don't judge this line by itself.

Woke up, Still king
this rap game nipple is mine for the milking"

I had a dream -> Milking (M.L king)

It doesn't fit on the album because of the fucking awful chorus by Bruno Mars. It's one of the cheesiest things I've heard on an Em song, I think my ears bled a little when I first heard it.

Agreed with both. I love Lighters, it's a great track. Some people have an issue with Bruno Mars, but whatever. I think it works.

Yeah, i´m with you on this one, Lighters gets soo much undeserved hate, mostly because of its chorus. I like it, maybe because i listen and like genres other than Rap, the chorus Bruno made fits the song and the song fits, in my opinion at least the album. As others have said, an album interely made of W2H and ATL would be to homogeneous, this way i feel like the album is correctly balanced.

Let me do it for him.

- Bruno Mars
- Eminem's cock punchline
- Beat
- Eminem isn't rhyming like he did on Lose Yourself
- Royce is black therefore he sounds awkward on an emotional song
