Eminem: 10 Most Overrated Songs
10. Fall
While the lyrical content is fine - even quite sharp at times - the hype surrounding this track was simply unjustified. Which is something that could easily apply to the album it came from too.
After Slim's last few mediocre efforts didn't necessarily bomb commercially but failed to resonate with the average consumer as well as the loyalest of fans, he released the Kamikaze album. An album that was slated to be a return to form for the fallen giant, and this song essentially acted as a proverbial middle finger to those who slated him in reference to the foregone albums.
As mentioned previously, the song itself isn't too bad. It's technically well written. Eminem's flow is typically rhythmic and the subject matter is something that more than elicits the reactionary song. The only reason it has just scraped its way onto this list is because of the ridiculously overzealous reaction the public had to it.
When Eminem starts throwing shout outs to Logic, Hopsin and J. Cole, everybody collectively lost their mind(s) and of course, the internet had a lot of fun speculating whether this could be a precursor to future collaborations between Em and the others in question. It eventually did with Logic, but yet again, that wasn't exactly Eminem before him and his party days had all pretty much parted ways.
