I'm about to find out for myself shortly. Hopefully it has more skirt skirts in it than that terribly out of touch Black Thought on Hot 97.
Revival is a cacophony of bad ideas from an out of touch hermit, pressed onto lengthy legacy tarnishing mess filled with the worst production from everyone involved, to grade school dad lyrics that miss the mark so far, they landed three countries away from the target.
It's a gimmick filled collection of splattered half woke thoughts, curated by a team of yes men, and organized in the most billboard chasing way possible.
How do you have an artist that supposedly hates a large portion of his fanbase, to the degree that he does, drop an introspective and angry album that's tepid and doesn't even sound inspired. Bored musings directed by a team of individuals looking to capitalize off of discourse, in the most transparent and cynical fashion ever. This guy built a career off of being the angry white guy, and when it really counts, when certain people really could use that voice, he half assed it. Socially conscious Em is the worst version ever, and not because he can't rap, but because he is clearly above criticism and doesn't give the fuck that he says he does about putting out actual good music. That's the worst part of it all. He cared more about Trump not acknowledging his raps, then actual putting out something that people could use. This shit doesn't feel honest in the slightest.

Pretty much. I kind of like Framed and Castle/Arose.
But the production is terrible, I like the In Your Head sample, but none of the drums on this album hit hard.
It's a sad thing to see when Taylor Swift and Jaden Smith tracks have better production than the highest selling rapper of all time.

By s y Go To PostCole hasn't had a verse like this Jeezy feature in probably half a decade jesus christ.kendrick sucked in this one. good song though.
fucking hell
I actually really liked Kendrick's little bridge thing. I'd have preferred a full verse but I like the way he approached it.
WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAIIITTTT when you posted black thought "freestyle" I assumed it was like every other rappers freestyles these days.
That was actually off the top?
If true (no reason to doubt it other than the sheer smoothness of delivery) the holy batman

Relistened, I can hear some things that could suggest this could be freestyle but I'm not sure I believe this.
The constant smooth delivery of multi-syllabel rhyme schemes through out makes this near enough impossible.
Even when eminem freestyles with multi's you can hear the disjointedness as he goes from one scheme to another, this was just too syllabel perfect.

Who or what is NF?
His flow on every track is...
:Bum, bum, bum
:Bum, bum, bum - bum, bum
:Bum, bum, bum
:Bum, bum, bum - bum, bum
Over and over.
By Kidjr Go To PostRelistened, I can hear some things that could suggest this could be freestyle but I'm not sure I believe this.Come on man, the traditional definition of freestyle hasn't been the same since broadband was invented. Or at least since BET killed Rap City. He obviously wrote all that before sitting down.

By unknown Go To PostYall lied, Revial is good. I think I prefer MMLP2 but it's not bad like you guys said.I stopped mid way because something came up. But his cadence is as lazy as ever over what sounded like a made for tv movie soundtrack.

The beat selection on revival is terrible. I don't know what he tried to do but there is too much rock and pop in it, more than the usual Eminem beat selection fuckery.
Not even Nas has such a bad ear for beats.

Thats what I thought, but he confirmed it was off the top
https://hiphopdx.com/news/id.45481/title.black-thought-confirms-murderous-hot-97-freestyle-was-off-the-top
And tbh if that was written that would be quite sub par for Black Thought and unless we're just going to call him a flat out liar then I see no reason not to believe him.
If that off the top I can honestly see why people would say this would be the best freestyle of all time.
I dont think super natural or juice could flow like that tbh
Eminem Revival has been deleted from my phone. The only remotely decent track is Castle and it's the second from the last way down at 18. The EIGHT tracks that feature pop signers all sound the same, yet each is terrible in its own unique way.
Record is an embarrassment for him if I'm being polite. Surely he doesn't need the money, but he should consider retirement and just live off his back catalog if he gets the itch to tour or whatever. Go take up a philanthropic cause maybe while he's still a draw.
--------------------
Not sure new Jeezy is as good as his last but I like these eight tracks enough to hold on to them:
4. Floor Seats
5. This is it
6. Bottles Up
8. Respect
10. Like Them
11. The Life
12. American Dreams
13. Snow Season
The rest can go.

Huncho Jack Jack Huncho sounded like a cash grab. Haven't heard such an mediocre and boring album in a while, love Travis, but this was simply meh. Nothing terrible but just super-meh. Regarding Quavo, less is definitely more in his case.
Warming up to the fact that Cardi is Nicky Minaj 2.0
As long as she doesn't blow her ass up like Nicky.

She already got the ass shots. I think she admitted it on breakfast club a long time ago. This was before she blew up tho.
Cardi ass look like she got better work done than Nicki. She can actually move it.
got a feeling C2 is gonna be the Takeoff album.

By Lego Go To PostChloraseptic Remixβ¦Wow Eminem snapped for the first time in like a decade. His album was still dogshit and everything outside of his verse on this remix is dogshit but this verse was heat.
Maybe Em gets one more shot.

Is it wrong to think Relapse is amazing
Gone back to it after being disappointed with the last decade of Eminem music
