Eminem: 5 Awesome Songs And 5 That Sucked

1. Big Weenie (Encore, 2004)

No surprise that we're back at Encore but it's hard to spread the suck-love when this album contains so many fails and Big Weenie is one of them. Now if the title isn't enough to justify its place on this list then allow me to divulge on the subject matter of the track. During this time, Shady was on the latter end of his beef with The Source principle Benzino. At this point, the feud had essentially run its course and Eminem was the clear winner after numerous diss tracks that he had released. Big Weenie was a final diss track that was not only pointless but also just not good. The title alone is juvenile and not in the cool Slim Shady way but in a cheesy, corny way. The lyrics are mediocre and again there is no real focus on the song overall to the point that some people didn't even realize it was a diss track. One of the things that is most frustrating with this song, as with a lot of the tracks on Encore, is that it's produced by Dr. Dre who provides a juicy beat that Eminem pre-Encore would've absolutely slaughtered. From an instrumental standpoint, Big Weenie and the album as a whole is awesome. It's when Em decides to rhyme that the problems begin to occur unfortunately. What other songs by Eminem do you think are awesome and what are some you think suck and why?
