an update to this would go crazy, just to see if your opinion changed over time, and to see if you catch the kim slitting herself bar

2025-01-04 03:12:15 +0000 UTCMaybe he was taking what he knew from the battle rap scene and applying it to the album - it was successful there. I haven't heard this album in a long time and I'm kinda on the same page with you lol.

2020-10-17 18:24:33 +0000 UTCFor sure. You can tell the shock value element definitely comes from his battle experience.

2020-08-16 13:57:09 +0000 UTCDefinitely. He was a battle rapper for 10 years and you can still hear that element of the style he battled in throughout SSEP/LP. Freestyling was his major strength back then and where he was comfortable. I think the studio environment that Dre provided, and the sense of really showing him what a song was/how it was constructed really helped develop his pen game. A lot of his songs have freestyle verses.

2020-08-16 13:54:41 +0000 UTCIt just SOUNDS so much better. And the artistic vision on some of the songs on that album is iconic. It's lowkey kind of unfortunate he's already reacted to Stan, Kim and Marshall Mathers if he's now going to go for chronological progression. There's still The Way I Am though - up there with Stan for timeless songs. (And then TES takes it up another notch again...at least for me it does)

2020-08-16 13:49:12 +0000 UTCYes, the vast vast majority of his stuff in that time frame was freestyled. The first time he met Dre, Dre played him some beats and Em immediately jumped in and freestyled over them. The first words out of his mouth were the lyrics to My Name Is. Dre laughed, so he kept that energy going. They made 4 songs within a few hours that first day alone. All just off the dome.

2020-08-16 13:44:37 +0000 UTCA lot of the tracks on this album were meant to be shock and comedy but he has a few gems in there too.. just donβt give a fuck , still donβt give a fuck, and the first bad meets evil colab with Royce (as the world turner is also pretty funny and showcases his storytelling again )

2020-08-16 03:11:32 +0000 UTCBack in this time Em was freestyling like a monster. So a ton of his lyrics are pulled from legit off the top freestyles. One of my fav freestyle lines "Better call the fire department, I've hired an arsonist to set fire to carpet and burn down your entire apartment"

2020-08-16 01:22:41 +0000 UTCThis album was between ok and good cause of songs like this one. I cannot wait for you to start The Eminem Show π₯
NicolΓ‘s Montiel
2020-08-15 23:41:02 +0000 UTCYou can tell he was a freestyler turned musician for his first album. The album was a mixture of freestyle with written. React to some of his first battle raps πππ
Matt KBD
2020-08-15 22:58:34 +0000 UTCalot of this album was already done before he signed with dre. They just updated it a bit. MMLP is where you can tell he had alot of time to focus on his writing. Early em I feel is more setting up scenes like little movies. He really starts to focus more on the doubles and triples on recovery.

2020-08-15 21:16:57 +0000 UTCAlmost there stevie, appreciate it!
Rama Djuhana
2020-08-15 20:24:02 +0000 UTCluckily the last third of the album picks up imo
Dylan
2020-08-15 19:53:32 +0000 UTCI wouldnβt have done that one. Last 6 are on my playlist for sure! Congrats for hitting 200k
Kostia
2020-08-15 19:27:44 +0000 UTCThe album you gonna be like WTF is the Eminem show. He pushed his pen far on that album.
Michael
2020-08-15 18:25:23 +0000 UTCNot freestyling. Intentionally saying crazy shit to get everyoneβs attention
cr!t!c
2020-08-15 18:06:13 +0000 UTCI think that youβll like the last 6 or atleast start seeing the growth
Ryan Roeper
2020-08-15 17:58:29 +0000 UTCI think your gunna see so much progression once you hit his Marshall Mathers lp. Which is crazy because itβs literally the next album after this. At least for me man I see a huge jump.
