Dogg you are trippin out... This shit isn't even as good as "Bezerk" was. It's not as dope as "Monster" was. "Walk on Water" was better, "Rap God" was a lot better. "Love the Way You Lie" made history. It's not even close to "Not Afraid" or "Fast Lane". Not in the same Universe as "Guts Over Fear" and I'm just listing singles that are in the same category as this song. But if I start listing tracks that weren't singles I'd have to list like half of the MMLP2 album...
"Groundhog Day"
"Legacy"
"Stronger Than I Was"
etc
what about
"Welcome 2 Hell"
"Catipillar"
"Living Proof"
Come on Dogg seriously, RELAPSE??? Dogg, I'm not a big fan of Eminem's career post 8-Mile he's never been quite the same—because how could he be hungry when he achieved everything after that—but he's still had a lot of shit better than this song.
And I'm not even saying this new one is bad.
Lucifuge:
Vintage eminem. And this is generational. Now my kids ask me about eminem. This is genious marketing right there.
I was thinking that he is going to be apologiseing, but its getting worse ;D. Evem hes kids aint safe no more.

This is nostalgic - not a great song by any means, average in fact but it's extremely nostalgic and does sound like a real Eminem first single - almost reminds me of why we all hated Eminem first singles at one stage past real slim shady apart from lose yourself - I can imagine this blowing up for a while and then dying down due to nostalgia but not being a very good song. This aint even close to fucking with joints like euphoria or not like us. However it has huge nostalgic value and it's a nice reminder of his better days. He hasn't released an album worth listening top to bottom since Eminem show so maybe he got something this time. Dre involved too supposedly.
On a side note if you check his IG and the comments - you can see how embarrassing his fan base is/has become and the demographics of it real quick. They don't know shit about hiphop

Yeah man it's changed totally—and doesn't make sense like before.
One of the great things about being an Eminem fan back in the day was the responses and feedback. So basically he'd put out Infinite—everyone said it's like he's trying to sound like Nas or AZ so then he puts out SlimShadyEP/LP. Then everyone responds and he has both fame and haters and also controversy and he responds to all of it in MMLP addresses everything.
Then Eminem Show kind of fell out of the sky I don't know how he pulled that one out of his ass because by that time all the haters had became fans and the controversy had all died down and then he still came with a flawless album and had more to tell.
...then you have the periods where he was responding to the Source or XXL—well you really don't have any publication these days that represents the voice of the hiphop community all that shit has changed

"Rappers Delight" type style
all those lead singles were cut from the same cloth...even though they were dope
I always liked Ems lead singles but it was the other joints on the album that I preferred
