Talentless? Lol

this is shade

 

[Blackace]

Only popgaf would see metacritic as valid lol

And Ye stans

 

[cdyhybrid]

Yeezus is maybe one of the worst albums I have heard from a major artist in quite some time...

Agree to disagree! I can see why people wouldn't like it but I enjoyed the hell out of it.

/shrug

 

[Blackace]

also eminem hasn't had a good album since 2000 btw

yeezus was decent. Ye always coming through with production. lyrical he fell off

Production was meh and it sounds like it was mastered in free downloadable mastering program for win 98

 

[Talents]

Yeezus 9.5 vs. MMLP2 4.7 sounds about right, since Yeezus is at least twice as good (if we're being charitable).

If we gotta dumb down our style and ABC it, then so be it
Cause nowadays these kids just don’t give a shit 'bout lyrics
All they wanna hear is a beat and that's it

Pretty much sums up all of Kanye's career. If people still cared about lyrics and not about the beat, he wouldn't be famous.

Yeezus is better than anything Eminenema has put out in a decade

It's time to accept reality about your homophobic misogynist fave

He needs to rely on Rihanna to even stay relevant

a damn mess.

Except The Mosnter and Love the way you lie are the worst songs on MMLP2 and Recovery.

The Rihanna song is by far the worst song on the album
Because of Rihanna.

Let's pretend that he didn't drop nothing but plat albums...regardless how good they were

Staying relevant isn't a problem

 

[Cheddahz]

I've found every Eminem album since The Eminem Show to be shitty, so no...I don't think it's his worst album

and em comes through with lyrics?

lmao he can't even come through with production

 

[Fry]

I don't mind Encore. I don't like Relapse. I really liked Recovery and MMLP 2.

1) There's more to making good music than lyrics, and
2) Em lyrics have fallen off IMO ever since he started getting older and less angry/drugged up. He's still got the technical ability, but...

 

[Blackace]

and em comes through with lyrics?

lmao

I want to hear more about the Clinton administration...

 

[Talents]

and em comes through with lyrics?

lmao

His first 3 albums were outstanding in terms of lyrical content, and his recent album had some gems in as well. Listen to Bad Guy, Baby, Groundhog Day, for example.

Also, listen to Hell: The Sequel. Only bad song on that was Lighters and that was because of Bruno Mars.

Nothing.

Why yes, because all lyrically talented rappers have good production. I can see where you made that connection.

 

[Romars202129]

That's being charitable? Dude I'm half convinced you are Kanye West.

Fucking hell

Let's stay away from thread bashing

Disagree with the statement

I will start booting people... it's fucking ridiculous

 

[Fry]

I liked Yeezus when it came out, but 5 months later it feels like one of his worst albums. Short tracklist, way too experimental, not so great beats, poor lyrics. (in many songs, his rhyming is laughable. He repeats the same final word for like, 4 straight verses).

Yeezus getting a 9.5 and MMLP 2 getting 4.7 is a fucking joke.

 

[OnettHansen]

I like Haken

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

Yes, we can all agree.

 

[Blackace]

Why yes, because all lyrically talented rappers have good production. I can see where you made that connection.

Em isn't just some dope rapper who hasn't had a shot...

He could have any producer he wants with a phone call

 

[Fry]

Sorry, if you know me, you'll see that I actually like POP GAF. But sometimes I think they are just trolling around, so I was doing the same.

 

[wenis]

I like Haken

Good ass album right there.

 

[Blackace]

Troll Riri or Gaga then... that will get the Gifs flowing

But the flat out thread bashing just can't go on

 

[Fry]

But I like them!

Got it, sorry.

 

[EdibleExplosives]

Em isn't just some dope rapper who hasn't had a shot...

I'm not saying otherwise. I agree that his choice in producers since Relapse has been pretty bad. His production was great until recently, however, and I'm not too sure what that has to do with lyrics anyway.

 

[Discotheque]

Em isn't just some dope rapper who hasn't had a shot...

and this is what's so sad. god damn alchemist is his freaking tour dj and yet he opts for trash beats.

 

[Quick]

Encore felt like it was trying to port over The Eminem Show, but didn't do the job so well. I still enjoyed it, but it wasn't as good as his previous albums.

 

[Fry]

Kanye should produce his next album, that's a given.

 

[AzureSkies]

I like Haken

Amazing album right there.

 

[twobear]

I don't think you mean aggregate

Not a lie in sight. You know it's time to retire when Rihanna's yodels are the highlight of your album.

 

[Artemisia]

Yeezus getting a 9.5 and MMLP 2 getting 4.7 is a fucking joke.

Niece, the only joke is that there are people who still think Eminem has anything of value to say.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Encode is bad
Relapse and Recovery are boring.

 

[Majestad]

Em made a set of bars dedicated to a lot of the seemingly butthurt people on this thread. Lol

Lyrics coming at you at supersonic speed, (JJ Fad)
Uh, sama lamaa duma lamaa you assuming I'm a human
What I gotta do to get it through to you I'm superhuman
Innovative and I'm made of rubber, so that anything you saying's
Ricocheting off of me and it'll glue to you
I'm never stating, more than never demonstrating
How to give a motherfuckin' audience a feeling like it's levitating
Never fading, and I know that the haters are forever waiting
For the day that they can say I fell off, they'd be celebrating
Cause I know the way to get 'em motivated
I make elevating music
You make elevator music
Oh, he's too mainstream
Well, that's what they do
And they get jealous, they confuse it
It's not hip hop, it's pop
Cause I found a hella way to fuse it
With rock, shock rap with Doc
Throw on Lose Yourself and make 'em lose it

Hilarious that in fucking 2013 you still see Eminem haters condemning the guy for his "homophobic" and "misogyny" lyrics. Time to give up; the dude will be in the game for a minute.

 

[Blackace]

I'm not saying otherwise. I agree that his choice in producers since Relapse has been pretty bad. His production was great until recently, however, and I'm not too sure what that has to do with lyrics anyway.

He said lyrics were trash and so were beats...

The two moving parts of hip-hop

Fuck

Why do people quote a bunch of lyrics like only they heard them?

 

[Artemisia]

Hilarious that in fucking 2013 you still see Eminem haters condemning the guy for his "homophobic" and "misogyny" lyrics.

What on God's green earth? It's hilarious that in 2013 we're criticizing homophobia and misogyny? Not hilarious at all that Eminem and his fans still think that it's nothing to be concerned about?

I mean... with how much Eminem asserts his heterosexuality, I'm not sure he'd appreciate your head so far up his ass.

 

[Majestad]

That specific part from Rap God is so good because how true it is.

 

[twobear]

Em made a set of bars dedicated to a lot of the seemingly butthurt people on this thread.

Actually if you're thinking of the members of PopGAF I think these lyrics might be more relevant in more ways than one.

I'll still be able to break a motherfuckin' table
Over the back of a couple of faggots and crack it in half

Yeezus is maybe one of the worst albums I have heard from a major artist in quite some time...

Besides the fact that Yeezus is one of the best albums of the year, I take it you haven't really been following Justin Timberlake recently.

"I don't know how to say this without saying it how I've said it a million times," Eminem says in an interview with Rolling Stone. "But that word, those kind of words, when I came up battle-rappin' or whatever, I never really equated those words  [to mean homosexual]...It was more like calling someone a bitch or a punk or asshole. So that word was just thrown around so freely back then. It goes back to that battle, back and forth in my head, of wanting to feel free to say what I want to say, and then [worrying about] what may or may not affect people.

"Not saying it's wrong or it's right, but at this point in my career – man, I say so much shit that's tongue-in-cheek," Eminem adds. "I poke fun at other people, myself. But the real me sitting here right now talking to you has no issues with gay, straight, transgender, at all. I'm glad we live in a time where it's really starting to feel like people can live their lives and express themselves. And I don't know how else to say this, I still look at myself the same way that I did when I was battling and broke."

Let's still be mad at the guy though.

 

[Blackace]

Let's still be mad at the guy though.

lol right...

 

[twobear]

That quote is like a serious version of Sarah Silverman's 'don't worry, I don't mean gay like homosexual, I mean gay like retarded' joke.

Is that really his defense I mean

 

[Yado]

Let's still be mad at the guy though.

So basically he's used to saying it and doesn't give a shit.

 

[Artemisia]

It was more like calling someone a bitch

he really is a fucking idiot

 

[Majestad]

lol right...

Blackace, what do you think about this "issue" with Em lyrics? I just see it as music. Doesn't make any sense why some people get so upset at the guy, specially when this "hate speech" of his is so noticeably tongue in cheek.

 

[OnettHansen]

Wait.

Eminem has performed with Elton John though.

That's real homophobic of him, especially the part when he hugged him afterwards.

 

[Satch]

i didnt mean gay to mean youre gay i meant gay as in youre a bitch as in youre a somewhat effeminate weak little shit and thats different
