So Eminem has finally gone full-on parody of himself, making half of his surprise new record about how Revival, which debuted at the top of the Billboard 200, wasn’t the success story he envisioned and how it probably should have been but wasn’t because hip-hop, whose history can’t be cataloged without a significant degree of lip service given to Eminem’s contributions to the genre, is in a bad place now, for some reason. Contrast that with Roger Daltrey of The Who’s “the only people saying things that matter are the rappers,” but whose word means more, the guy whose best work from forty years ago still rings true or the guy that thinks no, it’s the children who are wrong? In Eminem’s world, only one vote matters, and it isn’t yours. ( Revival has a 50 on Metacritic Tyler, the Creator’s Flower Boy released the same year, has an 84.) Later, Eminem raps, “ They’re askin’ me ‘What the fuck happened to hip-hop?’ / I said ‘I don’t have any answers,” referring to his distaste in the current state of hip-hop.

Aftermath / Shady / Interscope,Įminem is trying to keep up with the kiddies of the day, but they’re all doing things that are alien to Marshall Mathers III, a 45-year-old rich white guy whose idea of assimilating to PC culture comes in “Fall” with backmasking a homophobic slur directed at Tyler, the Creator: “ Tyler create nothin’, I see why you called yourself a f****t, bitch / It’s not just ’cause you lack attention / It’s because you worship D12’s balls, you’re sack-religious / If you’re gonna critique me, you better at least be as good or better”.
