i listened to it 3 times in a row today....i can see how some might disagree but if its not in your top 10 rap songs of alltime then i reckon you dont know the artform......the 3rd verse is no doubt the best verse ever.....such a great timeless classic

I don't think I'd put it in top 10. Maybe post 90's it's a top ten track though. It's a great song and the soundtrack was pretty dope.

Aye man, props for that avy.. Hottest chick right now :hitit:

But i hope (thread starter) you are not talking about the eminem song, because if it is in yout top 10 then you must not understand the art form..

While I don't think that it is the greatest rap song ever, I also think that those other than the thread starter are underrating it a little bit. I mean, as a concept track, it's dope as ****, the lyrics are amazing and Em's flow is impeccable on the track. Just the way it starts is sizzling:

His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting
What he wrote down, the whole crowd grows so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out...

I mean, it's so vivid the way Em goes into the battle atmosphere that I don't see how you can underrate such a track.

Great song, and if you believe it is one of the greats don't let anyone sway you different.

First Kanye deserves a movie and then this?

'Loose Yourself' Isn't even a top 10 Eminem track moron.

you're my dooood.

not that i agree 100 percent because i am not educated enough within the realm of eminem tracks to rate this one in comparison to all of his others, but that was hilarious.

i like the track. i think that the lyrics are sick and that em does a great job creating vivid imagery. it is not anywhere near my top 10. but i understand where you're coming from, i guess.
