If you haven't already, listen now.

It's fire. Eminem is amazing. It’s also the first single off of the Lebron James documentary movie, “More Than a Game”.

Yeah, it's the best Eminem verse in a long time. Weezy kills it, too (and can you believe it? No auto-tune). Kanye makes dumb puns as usual. Drake's verse is pretty good, but his flow is lame.

I know, the track is amazing in general. I'd say:

Eminem
Drake/Lil Wayne - Kinda hard to rank them
Kanye

Eminem has fallen back onto my good side after Warning and now this. Relapse 2.0 is going to be great.

Eminem fucking kills in this song. Definite stand out. The other verses were a bit bland, but I turned it up loud once Em started going off.

Haha thats awesome, I love that show too, glad to know I'm not the only one!! It's just funny cause in that little Wayne Video they say his name is Jimmy. He raps in Degrassi back in like 04.

Another version of this song with just Drake and Weezy (doing different verses) has been going around for awhile. This one slays, but I like the other version a bit better. You guys should check it.

The Wayne verse is shit as usual but everyone else kills it. Fucking great song. I love Drake. All his mixtapes are fantastic

holy fuck man. i thought eminem forgot how to destory a track like this. i honestly hope he fucking scraps relapse 2 if it was written at the same time as relapse (or just releases it as bonus material later) and just makes a new album

Eminem destroys this track, the others are just bad imo, especially Wayne.

Yea Wayne sucks IMO, Kanye's okay, Em just kills it like everyone said. He's gotta continue like that.

I'd never even heard of him before this song but I didn't think he was that bad, he was a distant second after Em imo.

Eh, the original version, I Want This Forever, came out a while back. I listened to that song a ton, because I loved the beat. Both Weezy and Em murder their verses, but I can't really get into this song. Drake also does quite well on his verse. Wayne does well, he's been rapping better recently if he doesn't use the autotune.

My order of best:
Em(Obviously)
Wayne/Drake(Either could be second)
Kanye

In this thread: irrational Wayne hatred.

He's got the second best verse, hands down.

He wasn't bad, but you have to admit Em and Drake had him beat.

Haha! That verse was horrible, easily the worst in the song and Kanye's was pretty bad too. He deserves all the hate he gets, he's awful.

Relapse was really disappointing, hopefully Relapse 2 will have some better Em.

it may not mean nothin' to y'all, but here's my take:
good track overall, a little long.

drake was alright, typical rapper boasting. i don't think i'll ever get over the degrassi thing
the mclovin reference felt like he was trying to be weezy. actually a lot of the randomness felt waynesque
i love wayne. he makes me laugh
i miss this eminem. the only track that comes close to this rapping on relapse is 'underground.' he doesn't do that stupid arab accent and just owns this.

"i'm hannibel lector, son, just in case you're thinkin' about savin face"

Kanye was terrible compared to the rest.
Drake wasn't bad, but his flow is a little weird.
Wayne is Wayne (without autotune).
Eminem killed this song.

Not a lot of hope, though. At this point, I'm just hoping that it turns out better than Encore, an album that I feel got (and still gets) a lot of undeserved hate.

Lil Wayne sounds absurdly stupid in this song, and this doesn't make me excited to hear anything else Drake has done; Kanye's verse is better than their verses, but it's still not Yeezy at his best. Eminem does sound great, though.

Well, aside from Kanye's being pretty bad, this is exactly what I'm talking about: irrational, unsubstantiated hatred for one of the most inventive and lyrically talented rappers in (mainstream) hip-hop right now. He does awful stuff sometimes, sure (like pretty much everything on Rebirth, and here and there on Carter III), but people hear "Lollipop" and "A Milli" and then write off everything he does or has done. Either your ears are broken or you haven't listened to enough Lil' Wayne. How come everyone is somehow able to distinguish Eminem's good stuff from Eminem's horrible stuff, yet whenever Wayne is on a track, he's automatically awful?

How is that irrational? I listened to it and gave my opinion, his verse in the song is terrible. I'm not claiming to have heard everything he's ever done or even much of it because what I have heard was horrendous. I'm able to distinguish Eminem's good stuff from his bad because I've heard everything he's done. I don't think even the worst song Eminem's done is as bad as what I've heard from Wayne though, the dude sucks.

Drake is massive in Canada, especially in Toronto, I think hes average at best, and brings nothing new to the table. I would of liked to see a Jay-z, Kanye, Weezy, Em collaboration more then this.

On a side note, Em and Weezy killed it.
