He's damn fell off after 8 Mile, his last good album was Relapse, that was his come back album but after that he becomes :trash:

It likes, he doesn't know to flow anymore, etc. Maybe, that's something to do with "Drugs". He sounds wack without "Drugs".

This is spot on. It’s like the Forever verse was the new layout for him.

He learned that shyt from Red champ.... Red use to do that alot.. Especially on this song here:



Eiht and Spice was rapping gangsta shyt and kept it within the pace... Red comes outta nowhere and rapping about taking over cities like the blog on some super lyrical spaced out shyt.. It came out weird but it worked for him.. Em did the same with Forever.. All them nikkahs were rapping at that stop pitch.. Em comes off beat and bringing something way out of box to the song. He been doing it for 10 years..

After he got sober, he slowly started losing his ear for music and second-guessing his decisions. He stopped treating music like art and started treating it like science. Relapse was the last time it felt natural for him, and when people didn't like it, he went in a more pop direction with Recovery and he's been inconsistent ever since.

Tyler the Creator said that Eminem got technical to a disgusting degree and I agree. And what's stupid is he can go back to that old style if he wants to ("Stepping Stone").

THIS!

I actually liked this verse cause he was rapping on a beat out of his comfort zone but look at what he did on here. He tries too hard to be super technical with that robotic bullshyt flow. Plus the last part he overcooked it.

No more Bass Brothers. When left to his own devices, Eminem is just one of those rap nerds that cares purely about lyrics and wordplay while giving no thoughts to music. The Way I Am came up on my playlist at the gym recently and it just showed how far he's fallen...cuz that song right there was probably the closest ANYBODY has come to channeling that Tupac energy since 1996 and now he just makes nonsense.

And of course, the reaction to Relapse like others have said.
