    Wrong. Gnat is his most underrated song post hiatus. It's awesome, it's a single with a video and nobody gives a f---.

    I do like Gnat but I feel like he’s just rapping fast towards the end for the sake of it.

    don’t front is genuinely so smooth and effortless

    I would love to get rid of these f---ing fast parts in both Godzilla and Gnat. I would also love him not to change the beat in Gnat. The first one is so relaxing. I wonder if getting rid of the second part (which is like too Eminemish) would make the song bigger or made the audience's interest even smaller.

    I love Godzilla and Gnat, but the fast parts gotta go, specially in Godzilla where it ruins the vibe

    Folks, back in 2013 or 2014, after Em released Rap God, some guy, I guess a rapper, said something in the lines: "a white man can never be a rap god" . I need the guy's name. Could anyone help me?

    Recovery era Em was soft and tried hard to appeal to the masses and mainstream audience and was the reason the fans down movement was created + the reason he also kept out songs that are just not anywhere near his best work during that period of time. I don't know how a lot of you guys here hold Recovery up high.


    I still think Relapse + Encore > Recovery

    To be fair, he starts the album with: “Just call me the ballsack, I’m nuts”

    Still more mature than Relapse and half of Recovery lol. Can't ask too much, it's Em

    Aggressive Em is the best Em tbh. The Em we saw on Kamikaze and what followed and that is something he lacked during Recovery era imo.

    Recovery era was yelling Em. I like calm Em the most, guess that's why I love Side B.

    Man, looking back, Em was really awkward during that period of time, like when he'd have interviews or something, he would seem very uncomfortable and act strange as if he was not being himself.
    Since Kamikaze or even the Chloraspetic remix, he regained back his true essence, he found his niche again.

    His interviews in 09 were pure comedy just like the music. Like that interview he did in Germany. In 2010 he was more serious.

    Yea I'm aware, but he also seemed uncomfortable and awkward during those "serious" interviews. He just was not fully being himself tbh during that era. You get a sense that he was being told to act in a certain way and not say this or that.

    Anyway, my point is The Ringer alone is better than Recovery (MMLP2 & Revival too) combined tbh.

    I only see him happy when he's talking about syllables. It feels like he could talk about it for hours.
