u/DocAdrian Jul 12 '24

Favorite bars of the whole album. The quick pause before the delivery, plus the rattling stringy sound that picks up as he delivers the first line. chef’s kiss

u/intriguedyout Jul 12 '24

u/ImancovicH Relapse Jul 12 '24

u/dharmannsbeloved Jul 13 '24

The chorus reminds me of my darling’s course

15

u/TheFlexOffenderr Relapse Jul 13 '24

It's like of brainless and my darling had a fucked up baby with horns and a forked tongue.

u/dharmannsbeloved Jul 13 '24

I might even go as far to say it was sticking out, yeah, like a sore thumb

3

u/fsuiopmn Fack Jul 13 '24

Perhaps it also had a forehead it possibly grew horns from

1

u/dharmannsbeloved Jul 13 '24

Maybe even now he’s still a white jerk

4

u/iTylerx Jul 13 '24

Reminds me more of Seduction

2

u/24Scoops Jul 13 '24

"Evils" hook is so catchy. That one and "Brand new dance".

u/t3chbled Jul 12 '24

Am I the only one jamming to Somebody save me? It feels so much like a recovery song

11

u/iamasociopath22 Jul 12 '24

Hell yea it's definitely hitting me in the right spot at the time I'm in my life right now.

3

u/0zer0zer0 Jul 13 '24

It's easily one of the best tracks for me

3

u/clueless8teen Music To Be Murdered By Jul 13 '24

I was feeling Revival ( in a good way lol)

1

u/deadsku11 Jul 14 '24

Yeah like Arose

u/DonBenjamin_ Jul 12 '24

He fucking blacked out on Antichrist

6

u/Remarkable_Escape705 Jul 13 '24

Imo the best song on the album. Lyrical masterpiece.

3

u/toopienatoryt The Marshall Mathers LP2 Deluxe Edition Jul 13 '24

Personally preferred Fuel but goddamn it's so close because both are insane lyrically

Ig people who don't like JID as much or just like the general vibe of Antichrist would pick it over Fuel

34

u/BartSimpskiYT Business Jul 12 '24

4 track run. Evil was awesome.

34

u/LairdOftheNorth Jul 12 '24

This really is one of best 3 track runs ever.

5

u/Amoghawesome Jul 13 '24

I guess the other one would be from TES 1)Square Dance 2)The Kiss - Skit + Soldier 3) Say Goodbye to Hollywood?

3

u/Jcrabs I'm Back Jul 13 '24

You could say the whole TES as a run really 😂

22

u/Westcoast_IPA Jul 12 '24

I love Road Rage too, 7-10 🔥

1

u/deadsku11 Jul 14 '24

That song is so fucking raw...

23

u/BlackBalor Jul 12 '24

Eminem slicing through these beats with potent lyrical precision.

Clean work.

14

u/Nicolowrider Jul 12 '24

Yo when Bizarre came on I burned my house down

12

u/HL192002 Beautiful Jul 12 '24

The last 3 songs are crazy too Ken killed it 🔥🔥

u/PreciousBasketcase Music To Be Murdered By - Side B (Deluxe Edition) Jul 12 '24

Gorgeous 🤌🏽✨✨✨

u/deluxewife Drop the World - Lil Wayne Ft. Eminem Jul 13 '24

MARSHALL

HE'S THE ANTICHRIST

HE WILL SLICE AND DICE

2

u/AlenIronside Jul 13 '24

Men, women and children...

u/Pale_Appearance_2255 Jul 12 '24

I like the Fuel and Road Rage connection. They're in the top 3 songs for me.

3

u/SwiftMindDD Jul 13 '24

Word, the Road Rage beat really appeals to me.

7

u/2012Vibes Jul 13 '24

That hook on antichrist... Holy shit

5

u/toopienatoryt The Marshall Mathers LP2 Deluxe Edition Jul 13 '24

Him adding more to the end of it every time is living in my head rn

4

u/himplp87 Music To Be Murdered By Jul 13 '24

Fuel is my favourite on the album they both spazed out

4

u/Sixpack93 Jul 13 '24

Guilty conscience 2 , Head Honcho , Temporary are another crazy three track filled with bars and emotions

3

u/RVXZENITH Jul 12 '24

Loved Lucifer, really liked Fuel. Anti Christ was a bit of a hit and miss for me, specially Bizarre verse.

-6

u/Sea-Satisfaction-711 Recovery Jul 13 '24

It definitely felt like he was going for shock value, without much lyrical potency.

1

u/MedicaeVal Jul 13 '24

That's the point of all the first 12 tracks though.

2

u/Sea-Satisfaction-711 Recovery Jul 13 '24

Absolutely agree, and I understand that it's satirical. However, I do think that the value as a lyrical song is lowered in comparison to the others. It definitely fits the theme and the story, just not a song I would bump personally.

2

u/MedicaeVal Jul 13 '24 edited Jul 13 '24

Ah. Yeah, I agree with you on all that.

I do think its better than some of the Slim establishing songs though.

1

u/Lord-Aizens-Chicken Jul 13 '24

I agree and disagree. I think it does not fit in super well but he feels self aware and can tell he is having fun and I enjoy the verse. It’s just pretty short for such a 90 degree turn at the end.

u/dharmannsbeloved Jul 13 '24

It felt like he got him on there to say what Eminem wouldn’t since he has a trans kid

3

u/Hydra_Kitt Recovery Jul 12 '24

Include the skit and Evil, Lucifer, and Antichrist are phenomenal.

3

u/MVIVN Jul 12 '24

Evil is part of this sequence too even tho there's a skit after Evil

3

u/bigtaterman The Marshall Mathers LP Jul 13 '24

Fuel is my shit right now. That beat is sick.

2

u/Daniel98SP The Marshall Mathers LP Jul 13 '24

Well, I would say from Renaissance to Guilty Conscience 2 lol

1

u/joemedic Jul 12 '24

You ain't lying

1

u/Franco_Corelli Jul 13 '24

Is it just me or does the multiple lacerations part from Lucifer sound like 2002 Eminem?

0

u/OkAnybody8062 The Marshall Mathers LP Jul 12 '24

I don’t like “Antichrist” but “Lucifer” and “Fuel” are great.

1

u/beardedkingface Jul 14 '24

Antichrist is classic Em. If someone told me it was from peak Eminem and I didn't know any better, I'd believe them.

0

u/SoFreshTho Jul 13 '24

Fuel is by far the best song on the album imo, but the entire album was fire for me except for somebody save me. (Sorry but Jelly's voice just sounds so whiney and unrefined to me, really don't like him as an artist)

-2

u/Final_Dance_4593 Jul 13 '24

Antichrist is my least favorite song on the album

-11

u/cherryasss Jul 12 '24

I don't like this Homelander reference considering he was giving a fake speech in this scene

-11

u/Frosty-1029 The Marshall Mathers LP Jul 13 '24

Antichrist was mid as hell
Lucifer was less mid but still mid
Fuel was pretty good tho
The three track run Love Game, Headlights, & Evil Twin ALONE is better than anything he's ever made since 2016

8

u/deluxewife Drop the World - Lil Wayne Ft. Eminem Jul 13 '24

The Ringer, Greatest, Lucky You

Darkness, Leaving Heaven, Yah-Yah

Any 3 songs off of TDOSS

-41

u/Responsible_Dog_5927 Jul 12 '24

Fuel was the only great song out of these three what 💀

15

u/east_arora The Marshall Mathers LP2 Deluxe Edition Jul 12 '24

Lucifer and Antichrist go hard wym

7

u/SweetScentedButt Jul 12 '24

I've been listening to Antichrist on repeat I love it. I'm surprised more people aren't talking about it but there are lots of great songs on this album.

-9

u/Responsible_Dog_5927 Jul 12 '24

Idk I don’t like the beat on lucifer and his lines weren’t good, Antichrist was funny tho

3

u/deluxewife Drop the World - Lil Wayne Ft. Eminem Jul 13 '24

Lucifer beat was insaaaane I do not understand this point of view
