    Yeah he basically needs to stop writing to songs that already have a beat + hook in it with a random chick, the type of songs where you could technically insert any rapper on it and it'll somewhat work.

    of course the hook was pre-written when Gwen got it.
    it's not even a sure thing (in fact I think it's pretty unlikely) that she got a version with the verses. she heard the beat with the hook on it and went in to do her take.

    it's not like Eminem rapped on the beat and sent it to her, and she was like, okay I have X number of seconds in between verses, let me write something really quick that will fit in that exact amount of time and then hope that he likes it. she sang what she was sent and the chances are good that the original hook came well before Eminem wrote a single line of the song. this is another one of the generic cookie cutter songs he's been making lately, and that's why people will eventually realize it isn't that good after some time has gone by, just like the others

    I really dont see how this is a good song, at all. The beat is generic, the concept is played out, Em is absolutely all over the place, Stefani's is just ok. Guts over Fear is pretty much the only time this 'inspirational anthem' s--- worked.

    This.

    Song is just as bad as anything he's been releasing lately. I tried listening to it and find out why so many people on here thinks it's so good. I couldn't for the life of me. Same generic Eminem we've been hearing with a s-----y flow and a pop singer on the hook.

    Em would fart on a record and you'd think it's dope

    He'd have a 8 minute record called Dog s--- and all you'd hear is fart noises and people would call it a classic

    just because you don't like the song, it doesn't mean it's s---.

    and stop exaggerating. you know d--- well that people aren't that delusional. you don't see anyone calling insane a classic.

    there are plenty to do like it :503: so f--- you and have a nice day

    Another dream tale of artistic collaboration. Not that it matters, the song sucks.
