the first verse has a weird mystical reference and a TI shoutout. rest of the verses are poetic political ranting, and that might lead you to say, this is corny, but he might have a calculated position (or at least one shared by a lot of people who might finally vote in this election). i hope he carries it thru in encore.

That's pretty good. I still think that those of us who are irreligious need to seriously wage cultural warfare against the whole idea of religious faith (but not, by any means, by any means necessary).

sean, are you reading this? you still moved by the track/capable of playing it all the way through?
― da croupier, Monday, 21 December 2009 22:35 (sixteen years ago)
I'm not sure! I haven't listened to it in years and to be honest, not being a huge Em fan in general I haven't really been tempted to go back to it with any regularity. Ultimately I put it so far up my ballot for the message more than the track, which yeah ain't ever really a good indication of a track's deathlessness...
Then again, have a feeling that I don't listen to MOST of the tracks that have appeared on my year end lists with any regularity, either. FWIW.
― Sean Carruthers, Monday, 21 December 2009 23:14 (sixteen years ago)
I have a soft spot for Eminem (maybe my fontanel never grew in), that's the only explanation I have for liking this.
― ô_o (Nicole), Monday, 21 December 2009 23:17 (sixteen years ago)
hearing this again, the turgidity made me wonder if the ICP put a curse on him after their scuffle, slowly making him the audio equivalent of a psychopathic recording artist ("3am" being the moment where there was no difference)
― da croupier, Monday, 21 December 2009 23:19 (sixteen years ago)
Psychopathic as in their label, I mean

it is true that most people whose talent dips turn out to be under an ICP inflicted curse - famously, Wordsworth's entire late output got shot down by the clown
― Herodcare for the Unborn (J0hn D.), Monday, 21 December 2009 23:23 (sixteen years ago)
Eminem's people are being kinda dicks, huh? Rereleasing Relapse already with 7 new tracks, but can't buy it individually. On iTunes you can buy 6 of the new 7 tracks, but NOT the new single. Thats "Album Only", so if you happen to be one of the nine remaining Eminem stans you'd have to pay $15.99 to get the new single. Not that I'm personally interested in these, just so annoying that labels still pull this shit.
