Where I'm At

Postby NotFinished » Mar 11th, '13, 04:12

Everything about this song to me is great. I also love how Em & Banks have long ass verses. And its one of the few Recovery-Era songs where he doesn't scream as much. :happy:

I still get shivers down my spine whenever eminem says "I'm haunting you bitch". Definitely one of my all time favorites.
I don't want you to be-lieve,
Cause this is something that I must use, to suc-ceed,
And if you don't like me then fuck-you,
Self-e-steem, must be fuckin' shootin' through the roof,
cause trust me,
My skin is too thick and bulletproof to touch me
I can see why the fuck I dis-gust you,
I must be allergic to failure, cause every time I come close to it,
I just sneeze but I just go a-choo, then a-CHIEVE

I agree... EM opens the song & starts spitting his verse & his version of the hook & stops at 2:30. :worship:
This is really slept on & underrated song actually.

Oh fuck, let alone the way ''Celebrity'' was blasted & slept on after.
Banks is a beast & very uncomfortable rapper to be on a song with, for some reason uncomfortable for EM as well on most of the songs they've done together. I think EM was bothered how he came on this song comparing to Banks so they never fully mixed & cleared it for the album.
EM was kind of repetitive content & style wise on ''Celebrity'' to what he was doing after ''Recovery'' but the rhyme schemes & the way he packed so many rhymes in his verse overall was awesome.
If they fully mixed it & put it on the album I dare to say it would have had bigger impact than most songs on it.

I love this song. I love Banks verse on it, but I would have preferred Em write a second verse to this song and then threw it on Recovery over several of the tracks that made the final cut. With that being said, I would still take the original version over WBD, WTP, T2M, and possibly several others.

I love banks, I love Em. This song is kind of flawless to me tbh. When I was going through some dumbass problems with my girlfriend this song was perfect at the time.

one of em's better post-recovery features.

banks is a good rapper. better than 50 cent in my opinion

The 'some shit is going down' line >>>>>>>
The whole song has always been a favourite of mine though. I can listen to it in any mood and enjoy it :)

Can someone explain how Banks 'killed' Em on this? I've always thought Eminem did better, but it may just be because I'm not a fan of Banks and don't really care for his voice. Eminem does great on this song, btw :happy:

Ems bit is dope, i admit.. listen through it again though. Bank's bit is very good, not sure if i would say he killed em but he certainly matched him.

Eminem's verse on this song was fantastic. He did have a better verse than Banks but Banks did well too. But Banks' voice on this song is pretty horrible.

Banks' voice on ANY serious song sounds out of place. Not saying that his verse is bad, but his voice is WAYYYY too low to make any "soft" song (like this one).
