    Phenomenal and Kings Never Die, while not bad, they seem forced. It's like he sits down and says "alright, I'm going to write a motivational song now". And during the song I get lost and disinterested in what he's saying.

    I'll take a meaningless fun song like Vegas over it any time.

    I guess we think this way now in terms of motivational Eminem songs because he's over saturated us with these same type of songs.

    Fine Line, Phenomenal, Guts Over Fear, Kings Never Die, Cinderella Man, Not Afraid... how many times must he regurgitate the same thing?

    It loses it's shine after he's done it so many times.

    You do realise he has to make them type of songs for the film? It's a movie soundtrack not a Eminem album

    Fine Line is not motivational.

    Don't really care if he makes a fun song or motivational, depends on the execution. Fine line isn't either of them but he touched that subject before too, dealing with fame (still great tho). But a lot of rappers repeat the same topics over and over, it's how they do it what matters to me.
