I absolutely love his punchlines on this song
TrShady is just great. A place where pompousus blowhards can connect with other pompousus blowhards, and form a vast circle jerk of pomposity.

I thought I'd be generous, so I gave it a 2.

An embarassment from top to bottom.

I rated it for 7 what it is,a track meant to score high on the charts and this song will because of the pop production,Rhiannas hook and EMs delivery.

My personal feeling is its not what i wanted but it was sort of expected.
After a song like Rap God,there was bound to come something soft.Lol
Cry babies,maybe my way that i use words is loose
but you turds better be careful how you choose yours
Cause feelings scar,but egos bruise worse
And the truth hurts,shit no wonder youre sore losers

Lyrics - Solid.. nothing new from him but not complainable
Beat - worst he has rapped over yet, and I HATE most Recovery production
Flow - predictable, awful inflections on this song.. like Encore inflection awful
Hook - I cringe a bit to this hook

There is nothing about this song that saves it musically. Generic and pitiful.. at least Survival re-vists Recovery-esk sound.. this song is just as original as any Katy Perry song. His inflections are literally laughable.. the yodel I can't even begin with..

For what it's trying to be, a 10/10.

I don't understand this sudden outcry. Either i'm a fucking genius for setting realistic expectations based on the recent history of Em's music and bits of news we got or a lot of y'all are just dumb as fuck for expecting something that wasn't going to happen.

The hook - is good, also like it better than the LTWYL hook

Eminem - he was good on this. His lyrics were very nice and he was entertaining.

6.5/10 for me but I'll vote 7. It's the poppy song of the album, oh well. I bet Headlights will be way better than this. Let's not scream Recovery 2 just yet.


I love your optimism dude

Solid lyrics (kinda predictable btw), too poppy beat (will receive immense airplay though), good flow and catchy² chorus (airplay and sells).

A 9/10 track for Recovery. 8/10 for MMLP2 (7.5/10 would be the right one)...
"So one last time, I’m back
Before it fades into black and it’s all over
Behold the final chapter in the saga,
Trying to recapture that lightning trapped in a bottle twice
The magic that started it all
Tragic portrait of an artist tortured
Trapped in his own drawings
Tapping the thoughts
Blacker and darker than anything imaginable
Here goes a wild stab in the dark
As we pick up the last Mathers’ last art"

Eminem, Bad Guy

7/10

I really love the lyrics and his voice/delivery. His voice, i love that he doesnt feel the need to be so in your face the whole time.

The hook is catchy, but the beat gets way too poppy for me at points, which drags it down for me unfortunatly.
" Life can change your directions, even when you ain't planned it
All you can do it handle it, worst thing you can do is panic
Use it to your advantage, avoid insanity manage
To conquer, every obstacle, make impossible possible
Even when winning illogical, losing is still far from optional.." -T.I.
