Initial Thoughts on Eminem’s “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)”

I chose to record a video about the new Eminem album because I didn’t feel moved enough to write about it, and I know some people were curious about how I felt about it. The audio here isn’t great, mostly because there was some guy mowing his lawn in front of me. I apologize for that. I also probably could’ve been way more concise, but it is what it is. Anyway, subscribe to the channel and leave a comment either here or on the youtube page. If you do both you da goat.

    Not sure if you will see this. But I have always wondered what you would think of the song “Bully”. it’s a popular 2003 Eminem disstrack to Benzino and Ja Rule. Most people like it. However Eminem sings the whole song. I never minded the singing on that song. But I’ve always wondered if you’d like it or not. Since you usually hate Eminems singing.

    The only part I really liked was JID’s verse on Fuel. Eminem really messed this thing up honestly.

    So it was “really bad”, but not “terrible”? And there were some “good moments”, but it was “really unpleasant to listen to”? And his flow and lyrics on Renaissance were fire but you didn’t like the song at all? This review is all over the place. Or should I say this review is really bad but not terrible.

    I’m not sure of you’ll see this. You should review Soul intent. One of Eminem’s album before he met Dre. It’s like two songs and a skit. The entire album is like 8 minutes.

    Isn’t Eminem cool with Trans people? And doesn’t Eminem have a non binary child?

      yeah of course. These were from the perspective of Slim Shady and Slim Shady alone. Even on MMLP, he kept saying the F word but he was cool with gay people irl
