How out of touch are the kids writing on the music industry these days? Kamikaze is the most influential rap album of 2018, period. NOt to say there weren't a couple great albums, but Eminem is at the forefront of rap right now. First off it sold more true copies than any of his peers, and all one need do is scroll through the usually mega divisive and toxic YouTube comment section to witness almost unprecedented approval of all things Marshal Mathers. The people listening to rap and music in general are listening, watching and claiming brilliance at every turn. The singles 'Homicide' and 'Remember the Name' with Ed and 50 rocked the internet. He's single handedly saving rap yet again and only one in every million or so disagrees. In fact, the only ones claiming anything short of brilliance are the ones attempting to ignore the rest of the entire world. It comes off as delusional and sad. But also strange.... is it bitterness because he's basically woke up countless new young fans to the fact these so called experts have ridiculously basic taste in rap? Or is it because he took direct aim at them on Kamikazi? Either way, Eminem is solidified once again as the most relevant, highest selling rap artist in the world; and hip hop is drooling in anticipation for another album.
