Sometimes I wonder if my homie's gaaaaaay...

very fair review and i agree for most part with your points. it so hard to make a perfect album but a good sign is when the things you dont love at least grow on you. and thats how i kinda feel with the road rage hook and ez mill feature.

in terms of tobey, i think it now makes sense why he chose it as the single. he wasn't gonna give us anything before gc2 (besides houdini). he wanted that all to be heard for first time within the concept. so if you look at the tracks post gc2 this one made the most sense without giving us the serious tracks. like he could of gave us somebody save me but again i dont think he wanted to give this away. the second single was with a week break before album drops. why give us something he wanted to hear within the concept/first listen. so tobey is the safest track to give to us. it may be not the reason you want but it makes the most sense

and it terms of repeating a lot of the content jus keep in mind that was the point. he intentionally kept repeating the same things because he was getting angry eminem was trying to stop him from getting "cancelled" and just wouldn't submit

This Kyrie & Luka song is a bop

should've been on the album tbh

Thats what i was wondering after the first listen. 2 chainz

Renaissance and Brand New Dance are by far my favorite tracks. And of course those are the songs that sound like vintage Em

Yeah I was wondering if he would respond to Game because that diss wasn't exactly something to write off. Game came at him with some serious blows lmao. Came for his whole life. Not to mention those sentiments aren't exactly made up. There's a lot of people who would say the same thing about Em (just look at all the hate he gets on this site).

I’m glad he didnt mention The Game,
Just like I’m glad Ross didnt either.

Everything about The Game screams ”ignore him til he fades away”. He makes dope music but he craves waaay to much attention.

Those thirst traps he was posting 10 years ago really ruined all his credibility I think

Definitely something coming…

I need more music ASAP

Fuel 🔥🔥

The hooks on this album for the most part are really good, an improvement on pretty much every album post Recovery when it comes to that.

There’s a Steve Berman skit??

Litttt lmao he should’ve been on the album

Just listened to it. So glad they both came in swinging.

Temporary
Houdini

Meh:

Road Rage (there's some aspects I fw tho)
Bad One
Trouble ( I know it's a skit but still)

Houdini go crazy with the track sequence. Lucifer to Houdini is my fav so far.

bad one is such a vibe and i f*** with it but if we are just nit picking i think this would have served as a better bonus track than like my s*** and i would have replaced it with another stand out track. im not sure content wise but just a track that had a little more impact/connection than just a cool track so the last act of album hit just al little harder. it would elevate it just that little bit to take it to next level

do we know if brand new dance really left off encore or is he just saying that

I really like Temporary musically. Em’s verses are the weak part of that track. Skylar and the Hailie samples >>>>

It could be the Christopher Reeves song from the OG Encore

need a “Don’t Front” type song on the deluxe

Renaissance his best tracks in many years
