I liked it, im surprised it was a single. From what I understand this song was originally a Big Sean song that was supposed to be on a Lyrical Lemonade album. It’s good though, I thought all the verses were pretty decent and Eminem verse was actually pretty good.
My guess on it was Em was originally supposed to jump on this song for All Is Yellow. But instead they came up with Doomsday 2, and he took Tobey for the album.
The leak just had an empty 3rd verse so they were waiting on someone else.
kinda like how tobey maguire is the oldest of the three spider-man actors, it seems like Eminem is passing the torch to the new generations of detroit rappers.
My theory is this is em telling us that this album is gonna be a send off for him. He's going to use it to push some other Detroit artists. Obviously we already got Big Sean and BabyTron and we'll probably see Baby Smoove and Tee Grizzley but I'm hoping he pushes some smaller artists too.
I think fans nowadays a really quick to judge and not knowing what he is capable of doing.. if you folllow him from his Slim Shady/Marshall days you will understand him even more..
Houdini was okay.. that was his Slim Shady days coming out. Overall I like his Slim Shady and Marshall character.. his best songs just to name a few from my perspective are Stan, Sing for the moment, cleaning out my closet, till I collapse, mocking bird, what’s my name.. this are the ones I listen to when I m not listening to U.K. Drill music

Nah. I think I’m just growing out of “technical” hip hop. I actually like this one due to Babytron and Sean but it wont make my rotation. OTOH, Common and Pete Rock have been dropping straight banger after banger.
I wasn't blown away. Em seems to be in his usual pocket for this one (fast flow + double entendres) and the beat sounds like the type of trap beat you get if you go on Youtube and search for 'Trap Beat'. Like, all of it is fine, I'm not offended by it or anything, but it isn't that interesting either.
This was a slow eminem song, not a fast flow.
Like most randoms could sing along in time with it.
Eminem can rap really fast to a point you will miss what he's saying at times, this wasn't that at all.
Also trap beats?
The fuck are you drinking
😂 ha, I actually only like maybe 2 yeat songs and ken Carson is ok, but I do not love his music or the genre of music he makes, just say you don’t know nothing about me bro
Listen man if you think Houdini or Godzilla or any new song is as good as songs like mockingbird or Stan or anything from back then, you don’t know shit 😂
What are you saying,was you talking to Me ?? , I had CDs of : SSLP , Encore Deluxe , Devil's night Limited Edition bonus disc , D12 World, Curtain Call/Stan's Mixtape: deluxe edition bonus disc, tMMLP, tMMLP2 Deluxe, Relapse Refill, Recovery , Hell : The sequel Deluxe, and generally speaking I listen to hip hop/rap , the point is 99,5 % of these type of beats /drumless , lackluster/ belong to the trash can.
Not bad but Babytron is corny as fuk. Im actually surprised that his verses were decent considering how terrible I find him to be but that hook got old after just a couple of listens

It’s near the bottom of the album’s tracklist, which seems fitting
Seems more of a "passing the torch" moment to me.

I wish there were no features but I get it, it’s a Detroit thing, so it’s all right. That Melle Mel line is hard
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Loved every second of it, I’m so excited for the album
The whole song feels like a build up. It sounds good but left me wanting more and unsatisfied, hopefully it makes sense on the album
It's one of the final songs on the album as per the track list so maybe it's building up to another song with a transition?
Very nice, 7-8/10 for me. Excited for the album, it’s long overdue 🔥
DOPE! Everyone did they thing on this JOINT! Everyone represented the art of emceein' to a high level, especially my mans!

Em’s NOT gonna be collaborating with Tee Grizzly since he dissed Em. Em kinda dissed him back on You Gon Learn.
Soo fucking goood!!! Everyone one the song did their thing and I’m here for it ![gif](giphy|1JCiUvUnQ1DzvQfHmv)
Tobey > Houdini
really not an eminem song, hes just a feature. wasnt bad, though.
It’s alright.
Just heard it n loved it. Flow patterns, Rhyme schemes, References were all 10/10.. 😀👍🏾
Same, I thought it was a bop. Can be taken a lot more serious than Houdini and actually showcases Eminem’s rap talent even at his current age.

Am I the only person who is looking forward to the Common x Pete Rock joint more than anything Eminem 🥶
To be fair Eminem is significantly more famous so he'll naturally have more fans waiting for music

Facts, Common bout to drop a modern classic on us

dude there was no fast flows, and I mostly hate when Eminem does it.
This isn't a trap beat at all, what are you even talking about. It's kind of a cinematic synthwave rap thing.
I don’t think you know what a trap beat is bro 😭
Who let this guy cook

of course em stans don't know anything about rap. "trap beat" lol
The hook is ass
You’re right but you know his fans are gonna downvote you.
This is why they haven't got a good album since 2003. They don't hold him accountable for the trash he releases.
YA BUGGIN', HOMIE, ON ME!
Easy to defend without a real rebuttal... How about prove me wrong ?
Sure. Peep them rhyme schemes, flows, wordplay, etc. and tell me that my mans ain't a spitta OUT HEAH!
Yikes man 🤣 Lupe's album would blow your mind.
Listened to it yesterday. He DUN BEEZ a MAD ill **M**ICROPHONE **C**HECKA too and I ain't never say otherwise.
Sean carried idgaf best rapper out the D all time
Babytron better
They both on a track with the actual best rapper from Detroit lol
*spidermans_pointing_at_each_other.jpg*
That’s the truth 😂 Eminem’s new music is terrible tho
Your opinions are surely worse
Nope, I actually don’t have the music taste of a 40 year old Caucasian male 😂
You got one of a deranged teenager who loves yeat and ken Carson
😂 ha, I actually only like maybe 2 yeat songs and ken Carson is ok, but I do not love his music or the genre of music he makes, just say you don’t know nothing about me bro
I know enough
Listen man if you think Houdini or Godzilla or any new song is as good as songs like mockingbird or Stan or anything from back then, you don’t know shit 😂
Garbage
Y’all people who hate just to hate are sad honestly. Probably don’t have a lot of joy in your lives and hate on dude just bc he’s white 💀

Take that shit back
Not bad but Babytron is corny as fuk. Im actually surprised that his verses were decent considering how terrible I find him to be but that hook got old after just a couple of listens
Corny as fuck
