    Underground, as far as a song on an Eminem comeback album, was everything it should have been. It gets so much unneeded hate because of the album it's on. Song contains his best flow since TES. Classic beat, and great hook. Some of his best punchlines are in this song. It has a couple of filler lines, but if you look at (almost) any Eminem album, they close with a song full of random punchlines with fillers ('Still Don't Give a f---', 'Criminal', 'My Dad's Gone Crazy', 'Evil Twin'.

    Great lines:
    "Dre, I'm down here, under the ground, dig me up
    broken tibias, fibias, yeah, fix me up"

    "Dixie cups, toxins, boxes of Oxy pads
    enough Oxycontin to send a f---in Ox to rehab"

    "This is amityville calamity, goddamnit
    insanity pills, fanny pack filled with Xanies
    Through every nook and cranny lookin' for trannys"

    This part was gold:
    "yeah glad to be back
    cause last year was a tragedy that landed me smack dab in rehab
    f---in' doctor, I ain't understand a d--- word he said
    I planned to relapse the second I walked out of that b----
    Two weeks in Brighton, I ain't enlightened
    Biting into a f---ing Vicodin, like I'm a Viking"

    "Tell the critics I'm back and I'm coming to spit it back in abundance"
    "Mad at me? understandable, cannibal, s---t an animal"

    "Captain of a cult with an elite following
    To turn Halloween back to a trick-or-treat holiday"

    Classic Eminem line right here:
    "Walked up Elm Street with a whiffle bat drew
    Fought Freddie Krueger and Edward Scissorhands too
    Came out with a little scratch, ooh"

    and here:
    "Straight jacket with a hundred eight brackets
    with a strap that wraps twice around my back, then they latch it"

    great song all in all

    I can appreciate how bad it is actually

    like, it's amazing you can tell how hard he tried to make the song sound like he's going ham. when really it falls super flat.

    Love the flow, beat, and his voice on it -- all among the very best we've heard from in a decade. There were just too many cringe-worthy lyrics. Overall I think it's good but it could have been much better.
