This album has a few tracks that use 60s/70s rock song samples as a foundation, most notably, Berzerk, which was one of the bigger singles of the album, the track definitely has a "Beastie Boys in the License to Ill era" kind of feel. The sister song is arguably Headlights, which is Eminem's apology to his mother, it's kind of corny, but, you know, I enjoy it for what it is. The last one probably being my least favorite track on the album (it's an incredibly boring ballad track, and most of it features Em singing rather than rapping. Most songs are relatively memorable in some way or another, although there are definitely some songs that just feel like songs that should have been on Recovery ( Monster, Evil Twin, Stronger Than I Was) This album does have tense moments ( Bad Guy, So Much Better) but it also has a share of lighter songs ( Love Game, So Far) In it, he was young, much more aggressive, angry, and the whole album retained that feeling.
I honestly don't see a lot of relation to The Marshall Mathers LP. I can't say that I had high expectations for this album, considering that his past 3 albums fell pretty flat with me. But most of their fanbase still enjoy the new albums, so all power to them, I suppose.Īs I write this, this album is still fairly recent. They still make decent tracks every now and then, but for the most part, I think that they are kind of beating a dead horse at this point. While I do like this idea, it's hard to make these kind of songs for as long as they have been, and honestly, there hasn't been an ICP album that I really enjoyed since 1997's The Great Milenko. Instead they usually tell horror stories, and often they "play" the part of the killers in these songs.
Other typical exploits, ICP will boast about stuff that no sane person would ever brag about,(IE having sex with women who are described as repulsively unattractive) or have it be cartoonishly over the top. You can almost call them a pastiche on hip hop.Įxample being, while most rappers would brag about owning cars, having sex with attractive women, and Rhyme schemes, I don't think they are incompetent about it or anything, I'm pretty sure the simplicity is a choice, because I've actually heard Violent J rap some decent bars.(With some really questionable lyrics, however) ICP do not take themselves seriously. Looking at them as just a "rap group", they are definitely mediocre, members Violent J and Shaggy 2 dope are typically simple, lyrically. They are pretty hated, but they also have a huge fanbase.ĭespite the fact that most critics hate them. It includes among other new songs the famous Lose yourself, who won an Oscar for best song.Insane Clown Posse is an oddity in hip hop music.
