Hip hop would be a pitiful sport if double entendres won trophies.

I don’t know where the idea came from that good writing is equivalent to squeezing multiple meanings into a shitty metaphor. It would be playlistable as hell if Vince Staples was rapping over it instead.Ĭorny writing is a plague that puts the album on its deathbed. It’s a shame because the beat has contagious concert energy and the late Juice WRLD’s hook is heat. How it has 50 million listens on Spotify is beyond me - syllables per second will never be a meaningful metric in assessing the quality of a song. How does he sleep at night after putting hip-hop legends like Black Thought and Q-Tip on a beat as ear-grating as “Yah Yah”? I’m disappointed that Busta Rhymes’s iconic ’96 single “Woo Hah!! Got You All In Check” will now forever be associated with the awfully executed vocal sample on “Yah Yah.” But that’s not his worst offense on the tracklist.Įminem’s greatest crime was somehow convincing millions of people that the speedy-quick-rappity-rap bullshit from the last minute of “Godzilla” is remotely enjoyable.

I did a little chuckle and sigh when I saw Ed Sheeran and Skylar Grey on the tracklist - oh, Eminem, will you ever learn? - But I could not stop laughing through album opener “Premonition – Intro.” If someone asked me what would be the absolute worst way to open a hypothetical Eminem surprise album, I would have replied with, “An intro track where he complains about his ratings and attacks his critics.” Lo and behold.

Royce Da 5’9” is featured on three tracks, which means three guaranteed breaths of fresh air in which I don’t have to listen to Eminem whining. “Lock It Up” sounds kind of like a 14-year-old’s first trap beat cooked up on a pirated copy of FL Studio, and it’s almost endearing. “You Gon’ Learn” is the highlight with its jittery percussion and wavering, pitched background vocals. Most of the instrumentation is a lot more palatable.

Music To be Murdered By is far more tolerable than his offensively unlistenable 2017 record Revival.
