Latest Work: The Marshall Mathers LP 2
The speciality about Em's raps is that he doesn't write and rhyme about girls, sex, lambos, and clubs like his industry fellowmates. He has a deep meaning to every rap he writes, and delivers humor perfectly in his slim shady persona.
Apart from being a hybrid between an experienced poet and a humorous lunatic, he also has a gifted rhyming ability. Eminem rhymes using a column technique. Practically in this technique each word rhymes with some other word in the verse.
For example: ' his palms are sweaty knees weak arms are heavy there's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti.' -Lose Yourself by Eminem
1st 2nd 3rd
palms sweaty knees
arms heavy weak
mom's already
spaghetti
This makes him so unique.He sometimes uses a fast flow like in 'Rap God', 'Thats all she wrote','Speedom' etc.
Apart from some of these basic techniques he uses creative styles within a basic AA rhyme scheme as well
For example: Mosiac- ' I murder a rhyme
One word at a time
You never.....
Heard of a mind
Perverted as mine!!' -' I'm Back' by Eminem
Breaking the word- ' You think of my name now when you say Hi!
Became a commodity cause I'm W-H-I
-T-E, cause MTV was....' - 'I'm Back' by Eminem
These are just a few indications to how impeccable Eminem is. He is the only one who can rap words like ' Munchausen Syndrome','ballistics' and 'Monica Lewinsky'. But to get an idea about him, I suggest you best listen to him. Style doesn't matter if something grows on to you. Don't force Em on yourself just because of peer pressure. If you don't like his music or feel attached to a different kind of music, feel free. Feeling free, after all, is what Hip-Hop is all about!
