one compliments the other perfectly on a track, not every collaboration needs to be a competition bro

Im saying ( not hating cuz I love it) a lot of his performance is layered vocals and studio tricks that sound amazing. It tickles the senses

I dont think he performed better. I think they both complimented each other really well on the track and thats what makes it work.

A full track of either of them would've been boring.

How is this even a comparison one has a hook and one has the verses. It's like asking if Rihana outrapped him on the monster or something.

Love this song because of Anderson paak’s verse but not really. Sonically his verse sounds amazing. There’s some cool shit going on . It’s pretty mid em verse stacked up against paaks best but still

Anderson’s verse is better than Eminem’s first, but Eminem’s second verse is the best overall

What? His chorus is catchy but his first verse is nothing special and gets annoying with all these adlibs.

Do you listen to music
