Eminem: 5 Awesome Songs And 5 That Sucked

5 That Sucked:

5. Just Lose It (Encore, 2004)

This is the song that proved that the Shady formula of doing the whole pop-culture comedy single to introduce his new album had run its course. It's not entirely the fault of the formula though; a large part is Em's fault by rapping about very dated pop-culture iconography and jokes, repeated hooks, and just overall cheesy beat that sounds like something on Kidz Bop Vol. 27. Inclusive to these aspects of the song, Marshall's rhymes and flow sound lazy and bored. The usual grit and bounce that fans had grown accustomed to was virtually absent minus some brief moments of enthusiasm. The song, not to anyone's surprise, was still very successful and in retrospect is listenable if you don't plan on taking it serious...at all.
