Slim Shady

[Mamba]

Which "Slim Shady" song by Eminem is the best?

-My Name Is
-The Real Slim Shady
-Without Me
-Just Lose it

I think Without Me is a great song, overall. Sick flow, rhymes and pretty funny. Love that song. Eminem is coming out with some new CD's, he better come good on them. Because his new personal CD is going to be called Re-Born (according to Wikipedia).

Funny you made this topic, because today I was thinking to myself just how much I hate these songs, lol.

Really, some of the worst songs I've EVER heard, Eminems mature side is much better (i.e "Mockingbird", "When I'm Gone", "Superman" etc.)

 

[Mr. J]

My favorite Eminem songs:

Rock Bottom
Stan
Criminal
The Real Slim Shady
The Way I Am
Hallie's Song
Superman
Business
Sing for the Moment
'Till I Colapse

Definitely one of my favorite MC's.

Mockingbird and When I'm Gone are horrible songs. Encore was a pretty bad album IMO.

I agree Mockingbird IS Horrible. When I'm Gone, if possible, is worse.
I think Eminem's best stuff is

Lose Yourself
Forgot About Dre
that other song he did on Chronic 2001
Kill You
My Name Is

 

[Bleed Green]

Till I collapse
The Way I am
I just dont give a ****
Amityville
Go to Sleep

 

[B.e.]

I hate those goofy songs he does, and usually after he drops those he comes back with a really serious single.

What's the Difference

I think Stan is one of his best songs.

 

[B.e.]

My Name Is, is my favorite anyway.

"How you gonna breast feed me ma, you ain't got no tits!"

 

[Really Lost One]

Lose Yourself is my favorite Em song

 

[Flow]

Til' I Collapse - superb song imo.
Run Rabbit Run
When I'm Gone
Lose Yourself

My Name Is was like his first goofy song.

My favorites are:

The Way I Am
The Real Slim Shady
Guilty Conscience
Lose Yourself

 

[Bleed Green]

I forgot about 8 more miles and run rabbit, run

 

[The Dream]

if you're talking about his goofy singles then I'll take "My Name Is".....I loved it when it first came out and I still pump it to this day.

Oh hell yeah, I hate these songs, but Mockingbird is horrible.

What I'm saying is, the only funny, "slim shady" Eminem song I like is Without Me.

 

[Mamba]

You want a whole list?

Infinite (sickest **** he's spit, to me)
Run Rabbit Run
8 Mile
Lose Yourself
Guilty Conscience
Just Don't Give a ****
Rock Bottom
Stan
The Way I Am
White America
Square Dance
Sing for the Moment (so sick)
Superman
Hailie's Song
Til I Collapse (what I use to get motivated)


Eminem's verses on Renegade completely blew Jay Z out of the water, he makes great guest appereances. I'm hoping his new album next year is going to be hot. Not that **** he called music when he released Encore.

 

[Midnight Green]

MockingBird
When I'm Gone
SuperMan
Stan
Forgot About Dre

"Mockingbird" and "When I'm Gone" are probally some of his finest works, they were songs in which he showcased a new side we hadnt seen before, an emotional, more mature side, I personally think this side of Eminem is 10 times better than any of the goofy "My Name Is", "The Real Slim Shady" stuff he released in the past, songs which had no meaning or point. You may not know it, but "Mockingbird" and "When I'm Gone" are both songs written to his daughter, so that may be why not many people like them, but they are definatley some of his best work, I love the message behind both songs, they give you a good insight to how Eminem has grown since becoming a star, and how his family has coped with his fame.

I mean both songs are against traditional Eminem style, and I can understand why not many Eminem fans like them, but they're both VERY good songs, wether you like them or not.

 

[Mamba]

I love When I'm Gone, I feel it's a great side. Like NTC said, very mature. He also paints a great picture with his story telling.

I wasn't a fan of mockingbird though, even though it was sincere and mature, the rhymes felt forced.

BTW, I'm a huge Em fan. Love his work.

 

[NTC]

His rhymes felt forced? I dont understand, he was telling a story, lol.

 

[Mamba]

It didn't flow well, doesn't matter if he was telling a story, there still should of been some rythmm to it.

 

[Laker_fan]

Eminem is a great story teller. Even though Encore was poor, it is better than alot of stuff released. I liked these songs:

-Yellow Brick Road
-Never Enough
-Evil Deeds
-Like Toy Soldiers
-Mosh
-Encore

I think Yellow Brick Road was great, the others were average and above average.

 

[Mamba]

I actually forgot about Mosh, I've been bumpin' that a lot lately.

 

[Legacy]

My favorite rapper of all time. I love how Em can be funny as hell or serious as hell. And he is white. A white man who can compete with all the other African Americans. That is crazy. Vanilla Ice and Paul Wall can't compete with Eminem and don't even get me starter on Lil Wyte. I love all of Eminem's songs except for "Mockingbird".

 

[huevonkiller]

Eminem has an awkward voice at times. Thus he's just alright or nice.

 

[The Dream]

Mocking Bird and When I'm Gone are trash imo.....anything after Eminem Show is trash for Em (except a few guest spots here and there)

 

[Bleed Green]

That appearance in "smack that" is horrible. Thats the worst ive ever heard from Em.

How was that bad?

 

[Bleed Green]

I thought it was horrible. I dont know about you guys but I would expect more from Em.
