Mar 19, 2026 2nd verse of houdini is some s-----y s---. Its incoherent. "Back in the days of old me, right around the time I became a dope fiend" and he sidetracks and never tells us whats that back in the days of old him, never finishes the thought. Then the "when i started this verse it felt lighthearted at first" and then neither changes the tone to non-lighthearted nor finishes that thought either.
Mar 19, 2026 I came back to leaks from 2025. Seasons is a f---ing masterpiece. I need a new f---ing album. Solo or duo with 50. I just hope we will get something this year
Mar 19, 2026 That’s what happens when you’re too focused on rhyming and not focused enough on actually making sense.
Mar 19, 2026 He actually does complete the thought: doing drugs and alcohol made him happy and helped him cope
Mar 19, 2026 They say I rhyme like A.I. It don’t make sense how I’m this high Is it the bar I set or how I didn’t cry?! Tobey maguire when I get to fry Use to mop floors and miss lunchtime Now I’m topping 4 Lime pies Who works harder than I? Made a franchise in Dubai Cuz my fans do buy You don’t want merchandise You still purchase mine Perch like a fly What I’m trying to describe Is I’m fire when I try
Mar 19, 2026 So his point is this: "in the days of old me I became a drug addict" Not much of a point, and it has nothing to do with participation throphies that it leads to
Mar 19, 2026 Oh and one more reason GC2 sucks: When shady voice is drilling him the strongest, the double voice part, eminem keeps adlibbing "yea, true, right" and then says "you're full of s---, you need miralax, open your mouth and s--- flies, just lies" Then why the f--- did you keep nodding to everything shady said in those adlibs? And those adlibs s--- too. He used to have funny adlibs that add to the lyrics. Nowadays his adlibs are just "why?" "Like what" in between setup and punchline.
Mar 19, 2026 I’m out-Wrapping Scholars like dog collars Holler at ye, I’m c-m laude but taller Like my daughters that graduated And I got dollars like commerce Yall ain’t made it up; Peach cobbler I cooked the Stuff and measured And that’s the thing about midgets They are a blur to helicopters And I just took this beat to the doctor
Mar 19, 2026 it doesn’t lead to anything? The whole song is rooted in nostalgia that ties into the hook. The opening bars are him talking about he used to drugs and drink a lot back then but he became addicted. Then he moves onto “my music may not be age appropriate but I will hit an 8-year-old with a participation trophy because I have zero doubt the whole world’s about to turn into some Girl Scouts” Pretty common song structure in rap. Without Me’s third verse is somewhat similar for instance.
