Memes are rarely nuanced. They remind me of Idiocracy. I’m sitting on my couch genuinely thinking how only real writers who write in scheme heavy styles understand how good Em is.
Saw this fella @
boof talking about how it’s meaningless multiple syllable rhymes. Dude on the car rapping spoof insinuates the same sentiment. Budden claimed Em’s just rhymed a bunch of words the last decade.
That view point exposes one or many of multiple reasons why those people don’t get it.
I know most of you have never heard of Dos Noun or his album Paper Animals, but it’s one of the best multi syllable rhyming album I’ve ever heard. It sounds like shit. He has a cardboard flow and monotone delivery. As music in terms of musicality, it’s complete garbage, but from a lyrical standpoint it’s incredible. Eminem has incorporated so many things into his style, that only makes the way he schemes that much more impressive.
Tldr: Em’s a legend and no one can match his lyrical ability.
