Cinderella Man is SO Good

[EminemBase]

I know it's not better musically than "Till I Collapse", but I actually prefer listening to it now. His flow is so precise and the lyrics are so badass, and like I said before - there's real flashes of poetic flair and maturity here, which wasn't even present in his TES days... there's corny puns also;

but parts like...

"Que Sera
Consider it his last hoorah
Coup de grace
Raise em high, in the sky
Time to bring the place alive!"

It's less personal, more existential, more outward, more poetic... as much as there is to criticize about Recovery, I definitely see some real growth and evolution, and really exciting evolution in his lyricism in parts, and am interested to what level he's gotten it to with his new solo work.

One thing I really like about his delivery and flows since he's come back is the clarity and precision, he's very focused on sort of, razor sharp clarity of delivery and layered rhythms.

It always bugged me that Em referred to the fairytale 'Cinderella' rather than the boxer 'Cinderella Man'.

The annoying hook ruins the song for me.
