Independent review
Ehhhh... Bewilderment. A little more than half a year ago, Eminem already released an album, and I reacted to it very negatively, despite all my love for this artist, whom I consider the absolute #1 in the world of RAP and hip-hop. Revival seemed to me excessively oversampled, although not without cool hit things, but monotonously long and tiring because of this. So, on Kamikaze, there isn't even that. Weak old-school beats, rare inexpressive choruses - very boring and very sluggish. Everything merges into one huge text. And even Marshall Mathers, who is usually assertive and pushes on the listener, is somewhat pale. Stepping Stone stands out somehow, Venom could have - the soundtrack to the upcoming film of the same name, but it also lacks expressiveness. I can believe that Eminem doesn't give a damn about sales, he can do what he wants, however, it is strange that he really considered the available material sufficient for a new album. I understand, there is a whole layer of hip-hop culture where the commercial component is not important, but I doubt that these people listen to Eminem. And for his ordinary fans, such music is guaranteed to be poorly understandable. There is especially nothing to say about the shortest, but at the same time, the dullest album of the most popular rapper on the planet. I wasn't waiting for it, I could have not listened to it.
