COMPLEX: 20 Good Rap Songs Ruined by Bad Hooks

Eminem "Cum On Everybody"

Late in the running of Eminem's breakthrough Slim Shady LP is "Cum on Everybody," the album's biggest flaw. For a while the song successfully nails a tongue-in-cheek parody of the jiggy rap that ruled the airwaves at the time. But then Em and guest singer Dina Rae get sleazy on the song's repetitive hook and beat the not-that-funny "Cum on everybody" joke into the ground. It took a few more tries, but Em eventually figured out what to do with Dina's overtly sexual vocal style and scored a hit with 2002's "Superman."


I know most people don't like Complex, but I was wondering what are people's opinions here of "Cum On Everybody"? I remember reading a few months back that most people thought this was the worst song on the album and since the article pointed the song out as the album's "biggest flaw" I'd like to know what you all think.

The chorus didn't took away anything from the track & its flow was same as verse. So, how can it be in worse-list. Imo.

The only song I dislike on the SSLP is My Fault. And I don't really care about the hook on this one, it's ok I guess. It doesn't annoy me, but it's certainly not the best thing on that song.

pssh i'm glad they didn't hear the original version with that famous sample that Em replaced with Dina, if it was released like that - then i'd agree.

I love that song, the hook, the verses, everything. His nonchalant delivery is so awesome, and it makes for a great humorous track. The only song that I find a bit annoying on SLLP is I'm Shady.

I don't mind the chorus. I get tired of hearing her moan the whole fucking song. Maybe it was Drug Ballad were she moaned and grounded the entire song. I can't remember.
