" 'VIBE: So tell me something about this new album.
Eminem: I learned how to ride a beat better, like, that’s what I wanted to focus on doing. On the last album, I hadn’t completely mastered it yet, to sink into the beat? That’s what I don’t like about that second album—I’d listen, and I’d be like, Why am I so far behind that beat? [voice rising] The first album was TERRIBLE — like, I was playing catch-up with the beat constantly.'" Well-spotted, Harry!

(I don't care what kind of context this excerpt could possibly be in, but I still think he's onto something)(This is re the article Feb 2003 'Source' btw)

I liked that he was behind the beat...

but he is getting better.
My new argument that I like to have is that first Eminem made all rappers on earth think more about their lyrics, then he got 'em thinking about how to make their delivery more unique. And now, with Dre & 50, he's really lighting a fire under everyone's ass to rock better beats. Triple threat.

Oh, the terror.

his rhythm is getting better but his music and words are sucking more and more. great
