none of you know anything about lyricism do you?
im not talking about WHAT he's saying i'm talking about HOW he's saying it.
internal rhymes, offbeat rhymes, multiple syllable rhyming, alliteration, assonance rhyming, metaphors, wordplay, personification, hyperbole, similies, double entendres does any of this mean anything to you people?...i could continue the list but i feel like i'm wasting my time.
Eminem is talking about the same **** he's always been talking about (pissing off celebrities, taking drugs, crazy horror ****) the difference is in the lyricism. He no longer displays any sort of lyrical ability. Plus his delivery is poor. The only thing that stayed on point was his flow.
Up until 2002 eminem was (in my opinion) one of the greatest lyricists hip hop has ever had. But now, he sucks.
