[FIRST IMPRESSIONS] Eminem - Kamikaze

Solid album. Em snapped on pretty much every verse. His flow was actually consistently good and he had quite a few witty bars, obvs had some bad ones too but not very many. I also didn't have a problem with the direction of the album, Em mad as hell and just snapping on everyone is fine by me. Some of the shit he said about us sleeping on Revival and it going over our heads was concerning though lol.

Also the beats were just okay imo and that held back the album's full potential. He picked better producers than he usually does nowadays but these sounded like those producers weaker beats. Some of the hooks were bad too, especially the featured ones. But for overall tracks there's prolly only like 2 or 3 towards the end that I don't fw at all.

Idk where I'd put it in his discog rn but I like it way better than Recovery and Revival, both of which I thought were horrible. Against MMLP2, I think that had much higher highs but this was more consistent overall.
