My Favorite Eminem Songs


8 Mile

Loose Yourself- Eminem’s top song in my opinion. He made a great rap song from the perspective of a movie character. The song is plain and simply flawless. It’s really inspiring also.



The Eminem Show

4)Sing for the Moment- A great song about how rap is changing things. The chorus is great as are Em’s verses.



3) Without Me- This is almost as good as the real slimshady, but it’s a little bit goofier, and it may have a better beat.



2)Cleanin Out My Closet- An entire song dedicated to SLimshady’s mother. The song has a very complex and mesmerizing beat. A true classic in Em’s list of great songs.



1) Till I Collapse- I don’t know what provoked this song…but Em makes it clear on this song….he wants to be the best rapper alive if not ever. With a performance like this he’s on the list top 10….maybe even top 5.





Encore

3) Ass Like That- This song is ridiculously funny…..I really like the Middle Eastern type beat.



2) Encore- A pretty decent song. EM is joined by 50 Cent and Dr. Dre. The song has dope beat, and is pretty simplistic. The end of the song is disturbing.



1) Yellow Brick Road- A great introspective song. Em takes you down memory lane before he was famous…..back in 1989 as he says. I really like the chorus.



Marshall Mathers LP

5) Kill You-Em opens up his best album with this rough song. His punchlines are shocking, as he raps about killing women. The beat is kind of strange like it never really wants to get going.



4) Criminal- Em desperately tries to end his album with a bang….and well he does! This song is fast and furious. It’s almost like he wanted to some up the whole album in one song.



3) Stan- A disturbing tale about one of Em’s fans. The chorus by Dido is genious, and the beat is dark yet effective. This is a long song but theres never a dull moment. The end is shocking as Eminem realizes he’s too late “Damn”.



2) The Way I Am- An incredible song of raw emotion. Eminem attacks every stanza here. It really is all about the troubles of fame….



1) The Real SLimshady- I still consider his best “party track”. It’s incredibly entertaining and it helped solidify Marshall’s status.



Recovery

5) Untitled- This song has no title but its got a hot beat. He just seems to rap about random topics, but its clear this song was meant to close out the album while being as offensive as possible.



4) Cold Wind Blows- Eminem opens up his recovery album with a viscious song. It’s a good song that helps the tone for the album along with the following track.



3) Not Afraid- This song is really inspirational and it’s a great lead single. Slim clearly is letting you know he plans to be the best rapper. Em claims that Relapse wasn’t a great album on this.



2) Love the Way You Lie-An emotionally powerful record. Em is joined by Rihanna on this one….which honestly I wouldn’t think these 2 would work together after one of Em’s lines on Relapse(I pee on Rihanna, I do what I wanna”). But that aside this song is about a physically abusive relationship. The beat is decent but the chorus and Shady’s verses make it an automatic favorite for me.



1) No Love- It may not be the best song on the album but I love this song. Lil wayne raps first and his verse is pretty good. Em comes in and spits a much longer showstealing verse. This song samples “What is Love” which is used very well here. This is a really cool song and it has a pretty nice video also.



Relapse

5)Insane- A truly crazy song. Em raps with a rapid fire type flow over this creepy beat. This one is about as disturbing as any other crazy song he’s made.



4)Medicine Ball- Em’s on a mission to offend again. I love the beat and Slim’s flow is very good. Em goes at a deceased Christopher Reeves. Impersonating him, while all making it rhyme. You gotta love Em’s creativity.



3)Underground- This is an amazing song, where Em just seems to let loose. It’s a fitting end to Relapse. Em spits some raw rhymes, as he portrays the serial killer character.



2) We Made You- The usual party track is a lot better than Just Lose It from Em’s Encore album. Em raps with that nasal accent with some very clever lines. I love the chorus, but I’m not sure if that’s really Jessica Simpson.



1) Beautiful- A serious and uplifting song that set the tone for Em’s next album Recovery.





Relapse Refill

2)Hell Breaks Loose- This song has a really infectious beat. Dre spits a good verse here.



1)Elevator- This is a really good song that I thought could have made his Relapse album. It’s basically just about Em realizing how successful he is. “I’m living in a house wit a f***in elevator”



Slim Shady LP

5) Just Don’t Give a F***: This is Em just spittin’ some crazy stuff…wait he does that a lot. The beat is borderline annoying, but Em’s verses are good.



4) My Fault- This song is just plain silly. Em does a good job describing the events of a party. Unfortunately the story doesn’t end well. The chorus is really catchy.



3) Guilty Conscience-A very interesting concept song. Dr. Dre is the “angel” and Em obviously plays the devil….Dre wins the first conflict while Em wins the next. In the 3rd verse Dr. Dre finally snaps and Em wins 2-1.



2) My Name Is- A great song that put Eminem on the map. The jokes are really funny. Em seems to glide over the beat masterfully.


1) Brain Damage- This song is sooooo funny. It’s also very creative storytelling. This song gets the #1 nod by a slim margin….yea slim lol

Nas Albums Worst to Best

20)      Nastradamus (75)- It really shouldn’t be a surprise to see this one ranked so low. The lyricism isn’t abysmal but everything is pretty average. How does a song like “Big Girl” make it to a Nas album?? It’s just a boring album plain and simple….I don’t really have a lot to say about it. 19)          Street’s Disciple (82) -I hate having this one so low. I honestly like a lot of the songs on this double disc. Unfortunately there’s quite a bit of filler here just like with Jay-z’s Blueprint 2. Disc one has hits like “Nazareth Savage”, “American Way”, “ Just a Moment” and “ You Know My Style”. Disc 2 has some heat on it too: “Suicide Bounce”, the title track, “Virgo”, “Bridging the Gap” and “Thiefs Theme”.   18) T he Lost Tapes 2 (86) -This one I admit I haven’t heard that much…but its pretty decent. It gets off to a good start with songs like “Vernon Family” and “Jarreau of Rap (Skatt Attack)”. A lot of these songs are ok….but not muc...

Album Review: Kid Cudi-Insano (regular version)

 I gotta admit I didn't like this album that much when I first heard it over half a year ago. I've heard that Kid Cudi doesn't exactly play to his strengths....that's partly true. I do like his rapping here tho. Honestly most songs here kinda blend together....."Keep Bouncin'" is really hype....and it gets the album off to a good start. "At The Party" with Pharrell Williams and Travis Scott may be my favorite song. "Wow" with A$AP Rocky is another highlight. Overall tho I feel this album tries too hard to be trendy. Cudi needed to put more of his pain into it. I mean a happy Cudi album isn't a bad thing but it really seems odd to me. You're not getting alot of singing or hums here know what I mean? However the production I found to be very good. Cudi is one of my favorite rappers like top 20 and I guess this will do for 2024. Lyrics 20 Beats 23 Depth 21 Tilt 21 Verdict 85

Album Review: Lupe Fiasco's Tetsuo & Youth

Lupe has come back, and with a classic album. He seemed to be back on tracks with Food and Liquor II, but F&L2 wasn’t as fun to listen to as his earlier albums. Even LASERS was more fun. This album however, is very complex and fun to listen to. It’s also incredibly well produced. Lupe proves he’s still a top lyricist in the game. Check out his lyrical showcase on Mural, or storytelling on  Prisoner 1 & 2. He’s got a really long song called Chopper which features a lot of guests but its all good. The last song might be the weakest which features Ab-Soul. No Scratches feat. Nikki Jean is one of my favorite songs here. The interludes are pretty intersing, but ultimately skippable. This album is already up for album of the year, and honestly it will be hard for anyone to match this effort. The verdict... its 10/10 for me. This is a great album
