Anyone gave this a spin yet? I’ve been hooked on it since it came out. It’s had a lot of criticism but honestly think it’s some of his most varied and talented work to date. It’s like he’s just come back to show he can do the same styles of rap and hip-hop that are popular these days but better. The speed rap at the end of Godzilla I had no idea he was even capable of.
Some uncomfortable lyrics at times but comes with the territory with Marshall Mathers. I still can’t figure out if Darkness is anti-guns and pro mental health or just outright EDGELORDing. I verging towards the former though. Still wish he’d move away from the domestic violence glorifying though. I know it was very of it’s time in the 90s but we’ve moved on from that now, it just makes me cringe.
I think the problem with Eminem for me, undoubtedly talented as he is and has always been, I just don’t think he makes good music that I want to listen to.

So much of rap and hip hop is about the producer and the beats which makes it fairly unique as potentially 2/3s of the song had nothing to do with the actual artist (excluding pop singers here as that’s just its own beast in terms of creation). There’s a few songs on the record that are very slow rap Soundcloud vocoder nonsense which is the “in” thing right now I don’t care for, but Eminem cuts through on it for me.

Its the backing tracks that are usually sh1t (this may be what you're saying).

“Just outright EDGELORDing”. Is it just me who has no clue what that means?
You know that thing Elephantintheroom/Pundit does on here/The EADT comments, where he posts a 'controversial' opinion just to get people to look at him?
That.
I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.
I've listened two or three times now and quite enjoying it, it certainly completely dumps all over his last one which I thought was awful.
I need a few more plays to really make my mind up but liking it so far.
No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.

I still think 80% of his older stuff from the first 4 albums hasn't aged well, both in terms of lyrical content and music.
Dare I say really the furthest back you can go to find anything he's done that stands up in 2020 is on Encore, which is when he ditched much of the stupidity edgelording for a relevant political edge. I suppose the Marshall Mathers EP had it's moments addressing the hypocrisy in scapegoating music for wider social issues though.

Still none the wiser! Don’t make me google this stuff at work!
