 * 6) Speaking of KILLSHOT it's known as one of the best diss tracks in modern hip hop history
 * 7) Kamikaze was a great way for eminem to save his career, status and character as the rap god in rap
 * 8) He inspired Logic, Kendrick Lamar,J. Cole, Big Sean,NF, Hopsin and Royce da 5'9 all which are very lyrical and talented individuals
 * 9) He still has skill when it comes to rap
 * 10) In the song Godzilla he does the fastest verse in rap history, In the final thirty seconds of the third verse, Eminem rapped 224 words (328 syllables) at 7.46 words per second (10.93 syllables per second). Interestingly, this is much faster than the world-recognized verse in “Rap God,” where Eminem rapped 6.46 words per second.
 * 11) He is still well respected in hip hop
 * 12) He's a good example of Chopper rap
 * 13) His punchlines and wordplay are immaculate
 * 14) His verse on the chloraseptic remix was amazing
 * 15) Music To Be Murdered By was great and is seen as one of the best albums of 2020
 * 16) Even on "Revival" he still has some good songs like "Walk On Water", "Untouchable", "River", "Offended", "Castle", "Arose" and a remix of one of the songs on this album "Chloraseptic" are great. Walk On Water was a good start to the album. Beyoncé did great on the chorus Castle & Arose are both amazing and heartwarming songs to end the album with. The instrumental on "Framed" is good. "Offended" had some decent & funny lines. Some people can enjoy "Believe" "Framed" & "Offended" can be some of the more fun times you have with the album. The music videos are pretty enjoyable. The remix to "Chloraseptic" was a lot better. The album starts with "Why?" and ends with "Now I Know". If that was planned, it was super impressive. And he also had something to say and put out a great message with "Revival" he just didn't make it sound good, It beats most of Encore, although that really isn't saying much

Bad Qualities

 * 1) His album Revival was so bad, disappointing, and horrible that it was panned and completely hated by critics and rap fans, it's one of the worst albums of 2017, it  even had two pages on two different websites it had :


 * Horrible production on songs e.g. "Heat", "Remind me", "Nowhere fast", (On this album, Eminem strays away from his normal style and goes into the pop-rap genre and it does not sound well, the production on this album is very poppy and it sounds terrible with Eminem's voice.)
 * The song "Nowhere Fast" is directionless and has no point, and the "Extended version" only adds 8 bars about gun control, even though he doesn't change anything else about the song.
 * Bad deliveries e.g. "Framed", "Remind me", "Untouchable" (1st half)
 * Corny and sickening lines e.g. "Your booty is heavy duty like diarrhea", "Actually, just shit on my last chick and she has what my ex lacks", "You got buns, I got Asperger's".
 * Sometimes bad and pointless subject matter on some songs e.g Nowhere Fast, Remind Me, Heat
 * Horrible hooks e.g. "Offended", "Framed", "Believe", "Remind Me", "Bad Husband", "Untouchable",
 * Garbage mixing e.g. "Believe", "Chloraseptic" ,"Tragic endings",
 * Bland, lazy ugly cover art ( it looks like something a 9 year would do)
 * Preachy and corny messages e.g. "Like home", "Untouchable", (it tries way to hard to be political and hard hitting and it's just sad to listen to and not in a good way)
 * Bad sampling e.g. "Remind Me" ,"In Your Head"
 * Eminem barely appears on songs e.g. "Revival" (Interlude), "Need me"
 * Some songs just add space and are just filler and have no purpose and don't need to be on the album e.g. "Revival" (interlude), "Need me", "Heat", "Remind me", "Nowhere fast", "Remind me" (intro),
 * The album ends with a toilet flushing. Which is one of the worst ways to end an album

2. Even without Revival he still had some bad songs like "Nice guy", "Good guy", "Venom", "Kamikaze" (the single), "Normal", "Those kinda nights", "Marsh" and "Stepdad"

3. His hooks are not good e.g. "Marsh", "Stepdad", "Venom", "Normal", "Offended", "Framed", "Believe", "Remind me", "Untouchable", "Farewell", "Never Love Again", "Greatest", "Little Engine" and "In Too Deep",

4. In "Unaccommodating" on Music To Be Murdered By, Eminem makes a joke about the Manchester bombing incident which attracted backlash from both the Mayor of Manchester and from relatives who lost people in the bombing, which makes Eminem a hypocrite since he helped raise money for donation for people who died in Manchester Bombing.

5. His production can be horrible with songs like "Heat", "Kamikaze", "Nice guy", "Remind me", "Good guy "Nowhere fast"

6. Anthony Fantano gave Kamikaze (the album) a 4/10

7. he can't take criticism as seen with the whole Kamikaze album
