the production on it sounds really bad (could just be the youtube's fault) and the vocals dont fit in at all, sounds so horrible.

I enjoy the fragility of the rolling lol tbh. The broken lol is like our own mortality staring us in the face, reminding us to enjoy that sunset.

"so where's the rubbers who got the rubbers?" Me and friends quote this all the time at parties when the song comes on. It's such a fucken stupid song.

 

I thought the production on the Slim Shady LP was quite innovative actually... because it had these awkward Carnivalesque/clangy piano beats with this silly skinny white kid rhyming on it about killing people. In a way almost a parody of the new age rappers and no limit culture and what not at the time. And it kinda meshed together to be a whole fucked up little universe. But then he actually seemed serious about what he was doin with songs like Stan and Way I am... and it was sooo bad and luaghable. Like is this guy for real. he just rode the media shitstorm to far. it got old.

 

And this song is like the completion of everything that sucks about shady coming full circle. Crack a bottle is soooooooo overly commercial its sad. Especially since dr dre is involved to... at leats eminem before was trying to create a character or be original compared to the other mainstream rappers. But this just lowers him a peg to everyone else now. He's just like any rapper now.

So. Wow.

 

Not what I expected from Eminem, especially considering his last few records where it just sounded like he was burnt out to the point of extreme laziness. Don't let the first couple of singles fool you (except 3 a.m. which is about par for the course in terms of seriousness on this album), this is some dark, DARK shit.

 

And, frankly, I have a lot of respect for it. Usually an Em album starts off with a silly little public intro announcement, whereas this one starts off with a conversation with "Dr. West" interviewing Marshall prior to his discharge from rehab, only to quickly melt into one of the most genuinely creepy moments in an intro skit ever. Maybe its cause I know people who've been through/are in the program, but the whole air of the album feels deadly serious, even the funny bits evoking maybe a snort here and there before delving back in to something brutally honest and very disturbing.

 

I used to have an issue with a lot of things that Eminem rapped about, more the rape than the murdering, and mostly because there was an undertone of "silliness," of "this is all in good fun." Yeah, I love Southpark because nothing is sacred, but the most effectively disturbing episodes of theirs have been ones where they've juxtaposed something deadly serious with something absolutely absurd (specifically, I'm thinking about the episode where Cartman gives Kyle AIDS and where Lucas and Spielberg rape Indiana Jones). The same holds true here, where the rape, murder, and general viciousness isn't nearly as tempered with a wink and a nod and when they are it only serves to keep the album from being just above the level of excessive self-indulgence.

 

And, even though a lot of the hate is self-inflicted on this one, I also don't feel like it's poor little rich rapper Marshall Mathers bemoaning his life, so much as forever conflicted Marshall Mathers calling himself out for his own fuck-ups and taking responsibility for his addictions, even when he's calling his mom out for feeding him vicodin with breakfast and his stepfather ass-raping him.

 

Serious shit, but worth a listen, just not if you're in an already fragile place, cause it WILL fuck you up.
