Eminem's flow

[S. Fourteen]

Just curious to know what people thought about his flow.. I've said that his flow on Relapse is vicious but the opinions of my friends seem to differ on what his best performance was. If you think another verse is better then please post it up

Locked in Mariah's wine cellar all I had for lunch
Was bread, wine, more bread, wine and captain crunch
Red wine for breakfast and for brunch
And to soak it up an in-between snack crackers to munch
Mariah what ever happened to us?
Why did we have to break up?
All I asked for was a glass of punch
You see I never really asked for much I can't imagine what's
Goin through your mind after such
A nasty break-up with that Latin hunk
Louis Miguel, Nick Cannon better back the fuck up
I'm not playin’ I want her back you punk
This is Hello Kitty bedspread satin funk
Mixed with Egyptian with the little rappin punk
Zappin Eric Clapton Shaq brings out da crunk
And yeah baby, I want another crack at ya
You can beat me with any spatula that you want
I mean I really want ya bad ya cunt
Nick you had your fun
I've come to kick ya in your sack of junk
Man I could use a fresh batch of blood
So prepare your vernacular for Dracular acupuncture


OR


Fe Fi Fo Fum
I think I smell the scent of a placenta
I enter central park, it's dark, it's winter in December
I see my target with my car, and park and approach her tender
Young girl by the name of Brenda and I pretend to befriend her
Sit down beside her like a spider, hi there girl you mighta
Heard of me before, see whore you're the kinda girl that I'da
Assault and rape and figure why not try to make your pussy wider
Fuck you with an umbrella then open it up while that shits inside ya
I'm the kinda guy that's mild, but I might flip and get a little bit wilder
Impregnate a lesbian, yeah and now lets see her have triplets and I'll eh
Incinerate them babies soon as they're out her with formalde
Hide in cyanide, girl you can tryin hide, you can try to scream louder
No need for no gun powder, that only takes all the fun outta
Murdering, I'd rather go vin vin, and now you see just how the
Fuck I do, just what I do, when I cut right through your scalp
Ahh shit wait a minute, I mean skull, my knife seems dull
Pull another one out

i agree his flow is sick on relapse even with the corny ass voice. i actually think his flow has improved.

stay wide awake>

When I first opened up the thread and read the first few of your lines the first thing I thought about was the first verse of Bagpipes from Baghdad. I'll have to re-listen to a few tracks, and see if there's anything better, but as of now. I place that first verse as the album's best in terms of flow. I know most didn't like the direction he took with the album, but in terms of flow, not many can touch the way he went about.

Em's flow has improved considerably over the years. But he's lacking that hunger that made him who he was as a rapper. He has nothing to rap about and it shows in his lyrics.

Relapse was an average album, the direction he took was weird. I just really couldn't stand the accent he used throughout the album. Very annoying.

 

[Jokerman]

I liked the whole flow of "Same Song and Dance," and I liked that accent in the right places, like on that song.

 

[FroDawgg]

^^^same here.

however, i think the most COMPLETE song on the album (also my favorite track) is "deja vu". the flow, the substance, the wordplay--it's just crazy.

 

[UK_Thug]

^^^same here.

seconded, easily the best song on the album. he comes across as a much more complete emcee and awesome storyteller when he's rapping about truthful shit as opposed to the murder/rape stuff

 

[ImmortalTech]

personally I think Em's greatest display of his flow and delivery was on The Way I Am

 

[Shadows]

^He hasn't topped it since.

 

[S O F I]

The second verse, easily.

 

[Bender]

i'm sure the first three lines go:

Locked in Mariah's wine cellar all I had for lunch
Was bread, wine, more bread, wine and captain crunch
Red wine for breakfast and for brunch

 

[S. Fourteen]

^ thanks, I just copied an pasted it. I'll edit the errors if there are anymore.

 

[Bender]

bagpipes from baghdad is one of the best songs on relapse for flow, as is hello too:

[Verse 1]
You see that chick in the gym, checkin' me out
Any second I'm bout to stick her neck in my mouth
I lose a pill, and I'm wrecklessly reckin' the house
That was supposed to be breakfast, where the heck is it now
There's the neckless I lost, right next to Stephanie's blouse
Man I should check to see if my mom left any out
Nope, guess I'll re-route
Maybe somewhere in the depths of the couch
Oh, jackpot, yeah, open sesame mouth
Down the hatch, and the feelin' you can't match it
I rat-tat-tap on your door with the damn ratchet
Att-ack-tack-tacking a whore with the damn hatchet
A napsack pack with like 40sumn Xanax's
Shorty come back, I'm tryna score me some lap dances
I'm bout to relapse, so baby pour me some Jack Daniels
Forumla 44D and 40's with bad capsules
The bad apple spoils the bunch, I'm back atcha


[Verse 2]
Yeah
My equilibrium's off, must be the lithium
I don't need to buy any drugs, man people gimmie um
It just becomes everyday, extra curriculum
No reason inparticular, it was strictly fun
a 5th of rum and 2 bottles of 151
51 people asleep in my damn living room
Excuse me hun, but what is your name, Vivienne?
I woke up next to ya naked and err, did we um
Of course we did, but didn't I strap a jimmy hun?
I'm looking for the torn rapper but there don't seem to be one
No offense baby girl, I don't mean any harm
But disease is something I'm tryna keep my penis free from
I find the package and I'm cool, I immediately run
Like Speedy Gonzales, see if I see anyone
Who might have a couple of 3's I'm fiendin' for some
My head is pounding to the beat of the drum


[Verse 3]
Oh, those were the days, they certainly were
It's hurtin' me to know that I'll be closin' that curtain for good
Word, word, word, word, word, word, word
I second that and a third, rushed to emergency surgery
To try to flush me because of the drugs that he purchased
He's no longer getting them free, 100 bucks for these Percodans
Plus it's getting to be where he lustfully searched the den
Pain is hitting his knee and his muscles be hurting him
Tirelessly on the phone trying to russle up, muscle relaxants
For his back, and a couple of Pax's, now he's doubling backwards
And he's stumbling back, slipped and fell, hit his back bone
Heard something go crack, Now he's up in the bathroom
Like he's busting a nap, almost ended it that soon
Because of the fact, I'm just busting my own chops
While I'm busting a rap, resuscitated and rejuved, so fuck it I'm back

the thing about eminems flow and most peopel dont realize..he flows exactly to how the beat flows..iots hard to pick up in some songs because of the numerous sounds...drop the world for instance..wayne chose the simpl flow and em picked a different sound to flow to

 

[Mike D]

eminem's ryhme scheme is usally more complex then anyone else..he says 2 words ryhmes them with 3 words then ryhmes syllables of words..nails into my face that i been pushin,hell razor my face is my pin cushion

 

[S. Fourteen]

the thing about immense flow and most peopel dont realize..he flows exactly to how the beat flows..iots hard to pick up in some songs because of the numerous sounds...

Most of my friends think good beat is good flow.

 

[Mike D]

check out the drum roll in toy soldiers and listen to em's flow...its EXACTLY to the drum rolls,really amazing

 

[dedbrd]

I think Em's flow was the best on "we all die 1 day" I copied this so if it is off blame it on the lyric site...

We gon' bring it to anybody who want it
you want it? you gon' get it
Man when we gon' hit 'em
chew 'em up and spit 'em out
<spit> too much venom
and if you roll wit em
we gon' fuck you up wit 'em
i got too much momentum
movin in my direction to lose
my shoes'll explode as soon as you go to step in 'em *BOOM!*
You know how we do it when we do how we do it
and we come through, g-unit d one two (D12) and Obie we all move
like assasins, ski masks and gloves
consider this as a warning, disaster comes
faster than you can react to it, just ask Marx
we are fizzast, fuck your little bitch as up
We are not killas, my vato will have you shot though
drag the little body on fuck like kim osario's
little sorry-o ass, go ask B-Real
We burn Source coovers like fuckin Cyrpress Hill
then in the Ninties when you was in diapers still
Shady Records, you better believe the hype is real
This is no joke, i don't smoke, but i toke
enough second hand to make my fuckin P.O. choke
I'm an O.G. you're fuckin wit a G.I. Joe
BIA BIA, MIA-MIA you livin la vida a loc?
i'm a psyhco, mariah aint got shit on me
when i retire i'll be spittin baby food on peep-
le it at San Ceedrow Ranch huddled up next to a em with hello kitty on slippers on humpin her
legs
you ever had your cap peeled back? or your shit pushed in?
I'll put my blade in you like a fuckin pin cushin
slice your ear clear off, Schmirnoff and Hen dawg (hennessy)
I'll show you how to fuckin kill a man like Sin-dog
Nobody told you that i'm loco esse?
I lack every sane chemical in my membrane
I'm Slim Sha.. DY and the D's for dees nuts
and you can get each one for free so feast up
i pee in a cup for 3 months, i'm having a E party
for easter, please come

^ I totally forgot about that verse, man. I got to go get my old cd's out.
