I got her to love Kanye its dope…shes even been watching the listening parties with me on TV or with my brother when I go to them in person

Only the second half with the beat change is new material, anyone trying to claim the first half was after 2009 is lying

Most rappers who use a lot of emotion in their delivery just can’t recreate those circumstances and environment they were in.

All trash

Nas In his second prime now tho

That s*** ass compared to anything Jay or Nas dropped in recent memory

Well flow wise, he could easily do this s*** again if he wanted to. But delivery wise, his voice isn’t what it used to be. He can’t sound like this even if he wanted to.

He sounds fantastic in this tbh, great verse

May not sound like the delivery prime Em had but it's just as good imo

Eminem & Wayne voices had the biggest fall offs. Wayne isn’t as bad and still listenable just no where near his prime

There’s a part in the opening track from MMLP2 where he does his old voice and delivery and it’s just like damn… this new flow is a choice.

Say my name was also a great one with xzibit around that time

Haven't heard a verse that good in 2022

i guess he just cant pull that out of him because he's not the same person, he's older. on top of that he's sober now and probably lives a more stable life being less of a celebrity than he was in his peak. he was too controversial back then it was a different time....
lowkey wish he made more s*** like Not Afraid idc how corny people say it i enjoy that song

imo if you get used to the robotic type flow he still makes good songs but maybe he genuinely just likes this new style better.

Terrible comparison

Nas is still on fire and Jay has aged respectfully as a rapper as well. Both have matured and shown growth in their subject matter while maintaining a high level of artistry

Em went the opposite route

And he takes himself too seriously, he's too whiny, no sense of humor and when he tries to pretend he's still "Slim Shady" at the age of 50 it's forced and lame

He just failed to reinvent himself in a respectable dope way and now it's too late. Long time fans should have made peace with it a long time ago.

Well if someone was 1hour from passing away i guess that does change a person

Maybe he already said hes trying to master new styles
Drake flipped styles too everyone does lmao

He lost most of his rapping ability after overdosing
He said himself he had to relearn how to rap

LMAOOO
