Not bad, have to relisten to give a thorough opinion. But, honestly, Eminem's shouting and Royce's melodic flow didn't really mash. Wish Em would stop screaming over the beat, his vocals are overpowering the instrumentals.

Yep i was just thinking about that...Tho it isn't as annoying as on the other tracks.Also"Your body language sais your confidence is gone"..wonder if he is talking about himself,as his gestured on scene surely changed...

On a second listen, the lyrics are actually pretty dope, Em's delivery turned me off the song to begin with. If he rapped normally, it would have matched Royce's delivery and the song probably would have been really good. The shouting line was funny though.

Exactly, would've been so much better.

It's less than the usually, yeah, still annoying, though.. Perhaps, it could be a reference to his stage presence as well.

Ok, Eminem's punchlines are much better, yeah. Seems more like his usual self in terms of wit, puns and creativity. Doesn't sound forced at all. Now if he would drop that shouty delivery and flow a bit more like Royce, melodic.. He would make a lot of Hip Hop fans happy, including me.

wayne + em collabs have been 2/2 and easily better than this for me. Also it just seems that Em has more chemistry with wayne now than with royce (and they didn't even recording together). I honestly think that an EP of Em + wayne right now will be better than royce + em, the magic that royce & em once captured 12 years ago is just not there anymore.

He doesn't sound too baffled on Living Proof. It's just fuckin around with Royce. If there will be an EP, they will both have a sitdown and talk about the direction and purpose of it.

i guess
but it's still far from that magic he was putting on Recovery...thats my only beef
he's taken a few steps back after taking so many steps forward after Relapse
