I know everyone has heard of the old saying of “I’m taking my ball and going home” a common phrase used to describe quitters that don’t want anyone else to have fun and rather end a game if their not happy. Well I’m not too sure that is what Eminem is trying to get across in his latest song “Taking My Ball” as the MC goes back to his old ways and gives the sinister lyrics and comical punch lines at celebrities.
The flow in this song is the creepy and weird style that we have grown to love from Shady and the production is classic as well helping to give it more of a punch. The song is rumored to have been cut from the first “Relapse” album and will be on the upcoming game “DJ Hero” as well as an exclusive performance of Jay-Z and Eminem’s classic song “Renegade”. The part in the song that was really interesting to me was the reference to Kim Kardashian that was so extreme that I cannot repeat in this article but definitely listen out for it because I know Reggie Bush will be.
The song is another reason why it’s still a puzzle as to why Shady was left off of MTV’s Hottest MC’s top 10. He has got to be one of the few MC’s that will say whatever he wants in the most lyrically dominating way and must I point out he has beefed with everyone from Moby to Mariah Carey of all people this guy has no fear just talent. The more and more he continues to be overlooked will result in many more songs like this and even angrier albums come to think of it isn’t that what we want from him? Relapse 2 coming soon.
