They're the first to hate on rappers that dabble in pop excessively, but the first to defend this garbage because of the name attached to it. This is seriously the most poppy "rap" song I've ever heard. People comparing this to the feelings people had when The Eminem Show came out.... lol. Get the fuck outta here.
How do the lyrics even matter in a song that has a hook and beat like that? Stop making excuses. He doesn't even say anything new in the verses. But because his rhymes aren't as bad as the rest of this song, he gets a pass.
People will laugh and post their stupid memes in reply to this because they can't carry a real argument seeing that they're just blind yes men. But this is perhaps one of the worst songs I have ever heard from the rap genre. Easily in Eminem's bottom three songs. No personality. No redeeming qualities.
This is how I know youre a moron and not a true fan of Eminem.
You seriously can say with a straight face "how do lyrics even matter with a hook like that?" Excuse me?? The hook is a beautifully dark melody. Celebrating the culmination of a journey that started with Encore, almost killed him before Relapse, and allowed him to come back and try a new take on life as Eminem.
I assume you havent had a rough day in your life, if you had you would appreciate the song a little more. Eminem has been through child abuse, being poor in a dysfunctional relationship with a daughter he didnt know how to feed, to blowing up and having every word and action condemned by the public to almost dying from years of drug addiction to pulling himself out of all of that. And being able to just take a breath and be alive after all that is a miracle.
You cant understand that, you will see that as "justifying my like of the song" when it really is just you not appreciating the song for what it is and what it means to Eminem. If you judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree youre going to think it sucks. Well if you try to judge this song without keeping in mind everything this artist "Eminem" has put out and been through the last 20 years youre going to think it sucks. In both cases youre an idiot.
