I think I'm startin to lose my sense of humor, everythings so tense and gloom, I
Almost feel like I got to check the temperture of the room just as soon as
I walk in, it's like all eyes on me, so I try to avoid any eye contact
Cause if I do that, then it opens the door for coversation, like I want that
I'm not looking for extra attention, I just want to be just like you
Blend in with the rest of the room, maybe just point me to the closest restroom
I don't need no fuckin man servant, tryna follow me around and wipe my ass
And laugh at every single joke I crack and half of them aint even funny like
"Ahh, Marshall you're so funny man you should be a comedian, god damn"
Unfortunately I am, I just hide behind the tears of a clown
So why don't you all sit down, listen to the tale I'm about to tell
Hell, we ain't gotta trade our shoes, and you aint gotta walk no thousand miles

There was a track on DJ Camillo's #19 Mix Tape that I thought was awesome.

Can't remember who it was with and I'm not going to go digging, but I remember most of the verse. It was something like:

Went to bible class with a gun, blasted a nun
fuck hell, satan can send my ass to the sun
wasn't born, I was hatched, dumped in the trash with a note attached
saying someone please whip this brat's ass
never gave a rat's ass or a flying fuck
driving drunk in a fire truck with the tires stuck...

then he was driving drunk in the fire truck for a while

better run, 'cus I'm probably the only one
crazy enough to shoot your ass with a knife and stab you with a gun

and then there was some other shit.

The internet has made it dangerous to ever say "I liked x before x". That said, I liked Eminem's stuff more before he hooked up with Dre.

Not trying to make a point or anything, it's just how I feel!

taking things a bit out of context for a second, but... in ten years, will we have a "what was drake's best verse" thread? or "what was j. cole's best verse?" thread? i kinda doubt it.

eminem was, and is, a legend. a status that he completely deserves in my opinion.

allright lets pretend Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen
lets pretend things would have been no different
pretend he procrastinated had no motivation
pretend he just made excuses that were so paper thin they could blow away with the wind
marshall you’re never gonna make it makes no sense to play the game there ain’t no way that you’ll win
pretend he just stayed outside all day and played with his friends
pretend he even had a friend to say was his friend
and it wasn’t time to move and schools were changing again
he wasn’t socially awkward and just strange as a kid
he had a father and his mother wasn’t crazy as sh-t
and he never dreamed he could rip stadiums and just lazy as sh-t
f-ck a talent show in a gymnasium bitch you won’t amount to sh-t quit daydreaming kid
you need to get your cranium checked you thinking like an alien it just ain’t realistic
now pretend they ain’t just make him angry with this sh-t and there was no one he could even aim when he’s pissed it
and his alarm went off to wake him off but he didn’t make it to the rap Olympics slept through his plane and he missed it
he’s gon’ have a hard time explaining to Hailey and Laney these food stamps and this WIC sh-t
cuz he never risked shit he hopes and he wished it but it didn’t fall in his lap so he ain’t even here
he pretends that…

I sit back with this pack of zig-zags
And this bag of this weed it gives me
The shit needed to be the most meanest emcee
On this earth and since birth I've been cursed
With this curse to just curse and just blurt this berserk
And bizarre shit that works and it sells
And it helps in itself to relieve all this tension
Dispensin these sentences
Gettin this stress that's been eatin me recently
Offa this chest and I rest again peacefully

Love eminem, never gets old

The one where he was angry at his mom about pills.


Seriously, I thought his "Despicable" freestyle was pretty awesome.

Kinda disappointed it hasn't been posted yet but, Dead Wrong by Notorious BIG ft. Em

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwpFaU7FwtQ
sorry, the link mixes up em's verse and biggy's 2nd verse

There's several different levels to Devil worshippin: horse's heads,
human sacrifices, cannibalism; candles and exorcism
Animals having sex with 'em; camels mammals and rabbits
But I don't get into that, I kick the habit - I just,
beat you to death with weapons that eat through the flesh
And I never eat you unless the fucking, meat looks fresh
I got a lion in my pocket, I'm lying, I got a nine in my pocket
and baby I'm just, dying to cock him
He's ready for war, I'm ready for war
I got machetes and swords for any f****t that said he was raw
My uz' as, heavy as yours, yeah you met me before
I just didn't have as large an arsenal of weapons before
Marshall will step in the door, I lay your head on the floor
With your body spread on the bedspread, red on the wall
red on the ceiling, red on the floor, get a new whore
Met on the second, wet on the third;
then she's dead on the fourth - I'm dead wrong

Not my favorite lyrics but he tore that song up! and pretty much anything from the Slim Shady LP

It's probably not his best but I listened to the MMLP for the first time in 6 years years and the last verse on criminal had me literally* rolling on the floor laughing.

Windows tinted on my ride when I drive in it
So when I rob a bank, run out and just dive in it
So I'll be disguised in it
And if anybody identifies the guy in it
I'll hide for five minutes
Come back, shoot the eyewitness
Fire at the private eye hired to pry in my business
Die, bitches, bastards, brats, pets
This puppy's lucky I didn't blast his ass yet {*dog whines*}
If I ever gave a fuck, I'd shave my nuts
tuck my dick inbetween my legs and cluck
You motherfuckin chickens ain't brave enough
to say the stuff I say, so just tape it shut {*tape unrolls*}
Shit, half the shit I say, I just make it up
To make you mad so kiss my white naked ass
And if it's not a rapper that I make it as
I'ma be a fuckin rapist in a Jason mask
Click to expand...

I want my old fun Em back. Fuck that screaming keep your head up featuring Rihanna bs.
He became what he so despised back then, what a shame.

*sorry watched to much Parks and Recreation.

EDIT: The fuck? the lyrics are full of errors, it's supposed to be Puffy not puppy.

Airplanes?

Really?

His flow is horrible, way to stop and go. Lyrics are nice no doubt but that flow is everything but nice.

a bit overboard but i agree with the general intent of your statement. that said. why wouldn't em give him a verse? it's not like eminem, kanye, wayne and drake were all hanging out rapping together. em's agent was like "let's film a 30 second segment, you drop a verse, you get a large amount of money". and he said "okay". seems sensical..

That says more about the state of rap than it does about Eminem himself. Eminem maintains a consistently good quality of verses on all the stuff that he does.

Don't get me wrong, I like Eminem, but not so much his recent stuff. But as for Drake? Eminem is better than that. The first time I heard Drake I thought he was letting Bizarre from D12 write his lyrics.

Pretty much every major rapper has collaborated with Drake by now. At least Em isn't doing songs with the Biebs.

Drake is just the latest craze in this generation of mainstream hip hop, so he's on it for business reasons, there's no need to analyze it further than that

Plus, the way he embarrasses all three other people on the song (all of whom are the biggest hip hop artists at the moment) just makes him look good.

W-w-w-w-w-would.

Wait, how old is she again?

Wait, it doesn't matter, I'll move to Sweden and bring her along.

Quit crying bitch, why do you always make me shout at you?
How could you?
Just leave me and love him out the blue
Oh, what's a matter Kim?
Am I too loud for you?
Too bad bitch, you're gonna finally hear me out this time
At first, I'm like all right
You wanna throw me out? That's fine!
But not for him to take my place, are you out your mind?
This couch, this TV, this whole house is mine!

Probably this. To me anyway.

you understand what i'm saying, though? em dropped a verse. em got paid. he isn't in a bad spot, right now. he bounced back from pretty much dead/irrelevant to destroying record sales with the last album.

Let it go man.

Artists like Em, Jay, and to an extent Nas.

You cannot change the minds of some.

It's either you think they suck, you think they are great, or you pine for their old shit.

I will say that I'm tired of screamy Em but it seems like he's self-aware of it now just like he was with the accents.

BME gave me some hoep of him going back a bit to his old subject matter. The Reunion's last verse was awesome.

Roman's Revenge is just.... I never got into it. I usually like Eminem but the beat has nothing to do with his beat. It's like he's just singing over another song.
