I understand the hype behind various MCs gathering to combine forces, but if that doesn't continue into the track being good, then it doesn't work for me.
You see, it's my humble opinion that this is meant to be the definitive posse cut of the modern times. The perceived four biggest names in hip hop right now.
However, all it serves to do is show just how lame they all are in comparison to Eminem, and how lame Eminem is in comparison to many other MCs. Even himself, circa The Slim Shady LP. Compare this to Triumph by Wu-Tang Clan or earlier in time, Flava in Ya Ear (Remix) by Craig Mack, B.I.G, LL Cool J, Busta Rhymes and Rampage. You'll see the difference.
MCs these days, mainstream ones, seem more focused on telling us they're the sh*t, as opposed to BEING the sh*t.
If you guys enjoy the song, go for it. So that's my opinion on why I can't enjoy the song. Hope that clears things up, dude.
