As first course is directly the question of how the sound has changed. Are the butcher remained largely loyal or worship it in every song their new boss and the mainstream? Of course, Eminem's influence falls well and also is the album for the masses than its predecessor, but Slaughterhouse preserved its strengths namely lyrical sophistication and ruthlessness on the same side now paired with more thoughtful moments-looking.
Direct the album launch expected to significantly different than it suggests the menacing cover. About a very quiet beat of Alex da Kid fees the first lines of the first song (the intro I once outside admitted) "Our House" Eminem. This also brings the same even an entire rap verse that has washed himself. The remaining supply from also, in principle, it is about their way into the rap business to memories of the beginnings or to their lives before rap. Only Joe Budden is hardly involved in the song. It controls only two lines in that emerge as a motif repeatedly: "I just want to be the realest MC, the sametime being as real as can be."
Only after this quite successful, but very slow start takes the album on tour, which unfortunately first goes in the pants with "Coffin". A disappointing Beat Hit-Boy, a disappointingly repetitive hook of Busta Rhymes and annoying synths make this song a skipping quickly. With "Throw That" Eminem is once again here, but also for the last time on the album. The song stands out through its Vybe which evokes associations to nightclubs and clever lines like "You mad, they call me up botox in Hermes' cause I help them get rid of All Those bags"
With "Hammer Dance" is followed by the first single, and probably the highlight of the album. A strong beat of AraabMuzik and the crew delivers exactly what one loves: good aggressive geflowte Parts and a good hook. In "Get Up", it will then inevitably a bit ignorant "Took The Idea of a group and re-imagined it without planning it, now the whole planet has to admit thats the shit" but if that's all is presented so skilfully with a musical adequacy, the No ID is more than just successful, one must simply love the guys for that. Celebrate themselves they do then continue on "My Life", the lead single from the album. Unfortunately, this will not really ignite. The beat sounds much too much like mainstream, there is a lack of power and the Hook of Cee Lo Green inspired by the hit "Rhythm of the Night" is not at all. Royce and co. but make every effort to preserve through good verse the song from total failure, which somehow manages. Nevertheless, rather than deep-climax.
The rest of the album do not know really, in what direction it should go because so. One can find club tracks like "Throw It Away", aggressive boards as "Frat House" or "The" quiet seeming songs like "Goodbye" and "Rescue Me", something to celebrate with "Park It Sideways" and an outro, which sets soundwise rather on size. Although the whole remains highly entertaining, weak songs you will find, though Skylar Grey's hook sounds a bit worn on "Rescue Me," in vain. Both the beats and the lyrics totally convincing. Of particular note here is "Goodbye" to be told on the very personal stories, all of which are connected to the death. Joe Budden mourns the miscarriage of twins his girlfriend, Crooked I and Joell Ortiz to his uncle to his grandmother. So personal and honest has the collective not been able to hear. The verses are great written with detailed descriptions that create amazingly vibrant images before the eyes of the listener. The hook then provides goosebumps.
What is basically a very good end of the album, but unfortunately seems very thrown together. That is followed by "Goodbye" song "Park it Sideways", is in the rapped about "Drug Life" and "Thug Life", is a good example that it severely lacking the end of the album in a certain direction. This fact and the weak song "Coffin" and the sub-optimal "My Life" ensure that the album can not be true but still described as perfect or superior as well. The four have evolved significantly, both flow technically and lyrically. The songs in each act somehow more of a piece, the transitions between the verses are more fluid and better grip in one another than in the predecessor. Unfortunately, a bit thrown together the whole.
Now even my 5 favorites:
1. Hammer Dance - The first single convinced by the strong beat and harmonious verse. It is exactly delivered, what you expect from Slaughterhouse.
2. Goodbye - The most personal song of the Department to date. The various stories are doing so well told that they even go a very fond.
3. Flip A Bird - Perhaps the best Beat Album. The butcher then Flowen even in this so well that it just fun to listen to them here.
4. Get Up - Because these rappers raptechnisch always convince anyway, make the best beats the best songs on the album. So also here with one of No ID sensational incorporated Sample.
5. Throw That - A stable Beat T-Minus 5 and produces outstanding rappers who give themselves with infinite wit the jack in hand - what more could you there more?
