You're 32? Awww! Lol I'm 43 and honestly I replay Em's MTBMB just about every other week or so. It's subjective of course. His music is completely playable and relatable even from 1999, but he's in my generation and I get what you're saying. And Grip held his own. Smooth!

MTBMB is my favourite Eminem album, lol

I'm about the same age, I didn't even hear new eminem (Relapse and on) until Kamikaze woke me back up. I love his older stuff but he's only gotten better. I'm back on the eminem train and honestly a bigger fan now than I ever was. Kicking myself for ever thinking he dropped off and missing out on some amazing stuff. What a fool I was!

Facts bro. MTBMB is STILL in rotation in 2024. That album is soo slept on its incredible

[@brandomathews]

Agree MTBMB has mad replay value, so dope.

[@AyoNieko]

My personal opinion of Em’s replay value lies within the insane challenge it is to keep up w/ and conquer his verse. I feel relief when I’m able to finally spit it all w/ o messing up - like how you masterfully recited Brain Damage. I was really excited to see that, bro #RESPECT

you missed this bar: "Bitch, back's to the wall as it always is Why I'm not talkin' about wallets and knots When I say that the wall it is not against It's more like the cross (Cross), look at how far this is past you Regardless, you want me to reach a fuckin' bar that does not exist No pun intended, but GRIP, hold on to this moment 'Cause soon as you reach the top, they're gonna want you to fall from it " Explanation from Genius: There is a clear biblical theme running throughout these lines. Firstly he’s referring to the Christian symbol, the Cross, saying his back isn’t against the wall - it’s against the Cross. This is because his critics are crucifying him because he has failed to reach a bar that doesn’t exist. Secondly, he bends the words “past you” so that they sound almost like “pastor”, which is the leader of a church, hence creating a homophone that ties in with the biblical bars. Thirdly, as Eminem has portrayed himself as Jesus with his arms being pinned to the cross, this puts him into a position where it looks as if he’s literally reaching for a bar that doesn’t exist. And fourthly, as we all know, Eminem is the Rap God.

[@dorarie3167]

Grip is serious! He’s got everyone’s attention now, and for good reason. Enjoyed Em’s flow too. Em seemed to want to mesh with Grip’s verse, and he caught flak for the final flow on EPMD which some felt didn’t match the other rappers’ contributions flow-wise.

[@JoseHerradez]

IDK why tho, the rhyme schemes and flow structures of Em's verse in EPMD was what I liked the most, and ofc the wordplay was unbeatable

[@dorarie3167]

@@JoseHerradez I can see why. That last section where he sits on the ‘ay’ sound as he pays homage does seem out of place for me. Yes, it’s a feat of rhyming, but for me it’s awkward-sounding, and doesn’t really vibe with the rest.

[@jhorse6968]

The final flow was one the greatest things ever. Whoever says that is a dumb dumb

[@dorarie3167]

@@jhorse6968 No, it’s called an opinion. Not everyone has to like Em or his music, or even parts of his music. Everything is open to criticism. Thus, I felt his last flow didn’t fit, and maybe someone else did. Opinions, not dumb-dumbs.

That's probably a 9 for me. Grip genuinely keeps up with Em in his own unique way, the chorus is fire, the beat is really great and they both found interesting ways to use it. And honestly it's one of my favourite recent Em features. I can already see it sitting up there with Best Friend, Caterpillar and Rainy Days for verses (and songs as a whole) that I keep going back to.

[@happyfairyjerry]

This definitely goes hard so I had to watch this reaction ❤️💯

[@HipHopTheology]

I follow Em on Twitter so I saw when he retweeted the Shady Records post about them signing GRIP. I then listened to his album Porch and I was instantly hooked. This guy is dope. Yall go listen to Porch and then listen to the album Snubnose as well. This man makes concepts so easily. Em and GRIP have great chemistry. I want to see more collabs from them.

[@EpicWarrior131]

Hot take I guess? But Grip didn't hold his own. He got blown away even though he did great. Em's rhyme patterns were more interwoven and he did that at the same time as the flows and the storytelling, plus wordolay. And not just random word play, like poetic word play too.

[@HangingwithMonica]

Grip verse on this had plenty of bars with intricate rhyming and unique lines. He did far more than hold his own on this record.

[@ZENN121]

The cadence on EMs verse seems a little like Superman

[@Hilariumosis]

Not a question of whether the other(s) on a track with Eminem can keep up, but rather what Em feel like bringing. What's his mood and intentions. Grip is a new signing that needs good light so why would he wanna out rap his own guy unless that's what they decided to. I think Eminem was being respectful and lowered the bar to match Grip for the best. Debating who killed who would've taken attention away from the song too much. Em is a good boss.

[@rod.duarte99]

Finally, huh? Been waiting crazy for this

[@vasilejambu]

About replay value of Eminem's recent music, I will name just a few: Fall, Venom, Lucky You, Stepping Stone (Kamikaze), Unaccommodating, Darkness, You Gon' Learn, Marsh, Never Love Again, Lock It Up, I Will (MTBMB - Side A), Black Magic, Guns Blazing, Higher, Book of Rhymes, Gnat, Zeus (MTBMB - Side B). This is just good music. Don't talk s**t just to be in the trends.

[@scottiesavedmjscareer1085]

That whole you're 32 an don't got time to memorize godzilla is just bonkers. It's the flow and pockets he's reaching while rapping that fast that still make it sound good. I mean people like Twista tech n9ne busta krayzie bone etc all have careers from rapping fast.
