assuming all of you have heard it, what you guys think of this song?

My bro rush into my room at 2am in the morning while I'm re-watching Serial Experiment Lain and told me to turn on youtube and listen to the "New godly music".

After I finish the music video, he ask for my thoughts, while giving his about how Eminem and Rihanna's vocal bring the music to life and so on... I told him I don't find the song to be special. Which he told me "you don't know music" "you only listen to anime song anyways"...

I was quite pissed off at the comment he made, then... I reflect on what he said and think about the recent mainstream music... still not a fan...

Now I'm wondering, am I the only one who don't like this supposedly awesome song?

For me, the rap is just same old Eminem stuff while Rihanna really just repeating 2 lines most of the time.

oh yea, the vide

I don't really listen to mainstream music, just anime themes, country and some classic rock. Now I don't like that song, but I do like a lot of Eminem's stuff surprisingly.

As far as you not knowing music, it sounds like a random comment/insult with no foundations to me, i'm guessing your brother just said it because he was annoyed you didn't agree with him. He doesn't seem to realise people have differing opinions about things and that his opinion isn't right(or wrong, though I would say it is =p).

Really? He thinks you dont know music because you watch anime and dont like this song? I'm having a hard time making sense of that. Evidently he cannot fathom that maybe other people have different tastes.

I'm not a huge fan of this song either. I can tolerate it, but it's not omg amazing.

This is actually the worst song off a otherwise really good album if your a fan of eminem or rap. Especially if you follow eminem as his last two albums were horrible due to him being on drugs and the fact that he almost died from an overdose. So if you are a fan of rap this albums marks the comeback of one of the greatest rappers ever. Saying that this song has been overplayed and I personally hate rihanna's voice and it was pretty baseless of your bro to say that you have no music taste.

I'm don't follow the charts and hype, hell i barely listen to radio so i don't know if this song is what is hot now and all that but is nothing different than usual.
Not the worst thing you can hear but nothing special. It's still has the recipe to stick into your mind though so that's why it accomplishes it's purpose.

BTW Rihanna looks like shit there. I haven't seen her for more than a year though.

I don't listen to much songs lately and i don't check what comes out so the last popular English song i heard and liked was some time ago. It was this:


Although the singer isn't really an English speaker from what i heard.

I really, really hate that type of over singing that they do in music today. Rihanna sounds so forced when she says her hook. It reminds me of that "Airplanes" song with B.o.B and that chick from Paramore. I just despise the way they pronounce words and how they try to put emotion that they just don't have in their music.

I don't like rap/hip-hop or anything like that, and you don't need to in order to understand music. It has nothing to do with listening to mostly anime music either, it's just personal preference. Accusing someone of not understanding all music because they don't like one song is a bold statement and only proves how little he himself knows.

I wouldn't call myself a fan of Eminem or a hater of Rihanna, but I really didn't like the song. For two simple reasons. 1) I think Rianna sounded like garbage and she looked ridiculous in the music video. 2) Megan Fox was in the video?! Gross man!

this song is amazing. every line has meaning and the beat backs it up. adding someone that went through something similiar to what the song's describing to sing some of the chorus is genius. definately one of em's better traxz man. i respect the message that em displays.

Wow that video was terrible. Megan Fox can't act her way out of a paper bag even in a four minute music video. As for the song itself, I don't get the hype. Rihanna isn't a great singer and Eminem's voice doesn't mesh well with hers. They just sound weird together imo.

This is coming from someone who mostly listens to mainstream music btw.

Megan Fox killed it when she got married. We know she's going to have kids now and her body's going to be gone after that.

She USED to be hot enough to the point where she could just stand there and I would watch a movie just because she's in it. She USED to be that hot.

It's not the best song on the album at all, imo. I love Recovery, so much better than Relapse, but my favorites right now are Not Afraid, Cinderella Man, and... whatever the fuck the bonus track at the end is called.

I'm not an Aya Hirano otaku type of guy, but when she gets pregnant, she's over. It's not because she's married, it's because what's going to happen to her as a result of getting married. Not to mention the dude she married isn't even attractive. She shoulda been with some James Defranco looking motherfucker.

Not exactly. There are certain tastes that are nearly universally considered terrible. I love the hip hop club rapper H*Wood, but I know the mans music is fucking garbage. No one can argue his music has any meaning other than "bitches in the club" but it's still fun to listen to.

Different music means different things to different people for different reasons. You can argue to some objective degree about talent, but "good" or "bad" music is almost purely within the realm of subjectivity.

Never liked Eminem or Rhiana. The music isn't attention grabbing and the video is cliche and boring. Definitely not worth hating or loving.



So... Do you only listen to Japanese/anime music?

The song is poor, really. As already mentioned the voices of Eminen and Rihana don't mix well together, not to mention Rihana's singing just doesn't go with this type of song.

I listen to English, Japanese and Chinese. The last song that really grabbed my attention is "My Best Days are Ahead of Me" by Danny Gokey. In other word, it's been more than 5 month since I really fell in love with a song. Back when I was younger, I was a maniac for "High and Mighty Color(Jap)" and "Simple Plan(Eng)"

I hate this song. Every douchebag I know has "Love the Way you Lie" as their ring tone. I hate that other song about the airplanes in the night sky being shooting stars too.

Collabs are stupid, most of the time.

The only good one was Aerosmith and Run DMC with "Walk this Way".

While I detest the following he has accumulated, it's hard to not have some semblance of approval towards the notion of him as a great lyricist.

As for good collabs, I'd have to say that most of Collision Course was pretty good. That says a lot since Jay-Z blows.
