My Mom

Postby sbolli1 » Aug 11th, '13, 21:37

I know a lot of people hate the hook, but his verses and storytelling here are sooooo fucking underrated.

"Now tell me, what kinda mother would wanna see her
Son grow up to be an under-a-fucking-chiever
My teacher didn't think I was gonna be nothing either
What the fuck you sticking gum up under the fucking seat for
Mrs. Mathers your son has been huffing ether
Either that or the motherfucker's been puffing reefer
But all this huffing and puffing wasn't what it was either
It was neither, I was buzzing but it wasn't what she thought"

And the way this part flows is ridiculous:

"And I ain't giving in, you're gonna just sit there
In one fucking place finnickin til next Thanksgiving and
If you still ain't finished it I'll use the same shit again
Then when I make spinach dip it'll be placed in the shit"

This song is so dense with rhymes it's crazy.

And of course that Dre beat :flutter: It's hella hard homie.

Top 5 of Relapse, imo. Absolutely love this song. The flow and storytelling are AWESOME.

I actually kinda like the chorus.

I love the song

I don't really dig the hook... not that I hate it but I definitely don't like it either. I love the song overall anyway.

I don't mind the hook.
Fuck top five, bitch, I'm top four
And that includes Biggie and Pac, whore
And I got an Evil Twin
So who the fuck do you think that third and that fourth spot's for?

I listened to Relapse today yet again... shit is always fresh. My Mom is one of the tracks I'd skip nowadays though & the hook is the reason for it.

I'd skip Insane because I hate stories like that.
I've got a pretty morbid sense of humor but it's probably the only time Eminem has made me uncomfortable.
"Taking My Balls" and a few others, just because they're boring.

I'd skip Insane too nowadays just like My Mom but not 'cuz I generally don't like them.
Taking my Ball & the other Refill tracks are still a little fresher to me but that's probably 'cuz I've listened to them way less than the ones on the original Relapse.
CAB, Insane & My Mom are the ones I'd usually skip.
