I think people outgrew him he can still rap at a high level but his shock raps and shenanigans wore thin. Tyler the rape punchline creator and them em clones should be mindful of that and learn from his mistake. Oh Hopsin too

he's still highly skilled
his only problem is those corny ass punchlines. shit is hard to listen to
I would say his voice,shouting on near every verse.also they wack punch lines is all he comes up with these days.his punch lines were dope as hell on infinite tho
Off the top of my head id say 50 Cent, I still like his new shit but it gets boring, Some of the work he did on power of the dollar and get rich or die was impressive but now he seems to have lost his hunger, cant say i blame the guy considering all the money hes made.
Recovery was damn good, and if Eminem fell off, then why is the IC talkin about Relapse like it was a gold standard in technical skill???
Sometimes the IC makes ZERO sense... If Eminem fell off, then where was this talk when Recovery dropped?
The only shit I ever hear from people is "I just can't relate to his stuff" (which is a stupid argument; save that for another thread), and that's fine, but to say he fell off, you must be crazy...
I swear the title says "skill" and not "shit I can relate to" (which again is bullshit), so please name some rappers that "skill-wise" are better than Em besides Jay and Nas...
Next I'm gonna see threads saying Kanye and Ross would murk Em on a track... y'all are killing me lol...

Exactly people seem to miss all of these points. I have only recently criticized his "content' recently but even people who hate him admit that he is still one of the best emcees TECHNICALLY.
You can't really say that he is fallen off skills and talent wise.
You could HOWEVER say that he has fallen off when it comes to making creative concepts in his music......like "Role Model" "Brain Damage",etc.
But never actually skill wise. The only thing I would say is that on Recovery he overdid it with the punchlines but other than that skills wise he has not fallen off at all.

Not a lot of ppl were feeling Recovery on this forum....and who are you to tell people who they relate too

I'm not telling people what to relate to... I'm saying the whole "I can't relate to Eminem" is just a weird justification people use because, to be honest, we can't relate to what 90% of rappers are talking about on records.
But ironically, what Eminem talks about on his serious records is shit most of us CAN relate to, yet he gets singled out for the "weird shit" when there are other rappers who rap about weird shit but don't catch nearly as much flak... That's all I'm saying...
I thought Recovery was average...Didn't like the beats...the singin' was horrendous at best..WTP and Won't Back Down were trash...Them punchlines were dead (Em's never REALLY been a punchline rapper anyway)...And I could give a fuck about proximity...How much I can relate to something holds no bearings on how much I like it...Get rid of Insane, We Made You and Crack a Bottle...Them damn accents....and Relapse is a great album...
I like Almost Famous, though...and Cinderella Man
I don't even mind that Em is still on this Slim Shady buzz..A lotta rappers are still talkin' the same jazz they started out with...My issue with him is that he's not doin' as well as he used to...

True.but compared to his earlier work.its a huge drop.think a lot of the beats saved it and some of the lines were laughable
