Ehhhh... Bewilderment. A little over half a year ago Eminem already released an album, and I reacted to it quite negatively despite all my love for this artist, whom I consider the absolute #1 in the world of RAP and hip-hop. Revival seemed too reliant on samples to me, although not without cool hit songs, but uniformly long and therefore tiring. So, Kamikaze doesn't even have that. Weak old-school beats, rare inexpressive choruses - very boring and very listless. Everything merges into one enormous block of lyrics. And even the usually forceful and relentless Marshall Mathers is somehow lackluster. Stepping stone stands out at least a little bit; Venom could have, the soundtrack to the future eponymous film, but it also lacks expressiveness. I can believe that Eminem doesn't care about sales, he can do what he wants, however, it is strange that he really considered the existing material sufficient for a new album. I understand there is an entire layer of hip-hop culture where the commercial component is not important, but I doubt that these people listen to Eminem. And for his usual fans, such music is guaranteed to be hard to understand. There is especially nothing to say about the shortest, but at the same time the dullest album by the most popular rapper on the planet. I wasn't waiting for it, I could just as well have skipped it.
