audio review : Those Kinda Nights ( song ) … Eminem ( featuring Ed Sheeran )

Eminem says the club beat; the best part of the song; takes him back to his D-12 days. With that bar, it would’ve been a perfect opportunity to feature the other four living members for what would be their first song together probably since the Encore album.

You can hear Bizarre trying to “holla” at a girl, but he doesn’t rap. He should’ve been given the last verse. What a nostalgic treat that could’ve been. Besides, Eminem has his hands full with a chick of his own. Her name is Alexa and she has “lean” in her car.

She’s also bisexual. That reveal; the “jokes aside” to “so am I” bit; is an increasingly rare example of the rapper being effectively concise. Ed Sheeran also sounds good on the hook, making this a fun dance anthem and one of the better newer Eminem songs.
