Eminem - Cleanin' Out My Closet

[AFRO SAMURAI]

Even though I think he's ridiculously talented, I've never been a huge Eminem fan. But every now and then he puts out some very cool records. "Cleanin' Out My Closet" is definitely one of those. It's full of the most genuine anger I've ever heard in a song.

My favorite Eminem songs are those that seem to be based on his personal experiences because his raps on those records are straight from his soul. Songs like "Mockingbird" and "Cleanin' Out My Closet" are refreshing because -- even though they might be big hits -- they definitely don't seem contrived like most of the lyrics in mainstream hip-hop songs.

Hot 100: #4, US R&B/Hip-Hop: #11, UK: #4, Australia: #2

It's one of the few song that I can tolerate by him. It's not my favorite though. I think he tried to do another "The Way I Am".

I never really liked this one. He only has a handful of songs that I like.

I hate this. It's so annoying.

Childish chorus, but the rest is good.

This song and video is dysfunctional like him but it's not that bad, he has worst singles. I like some of his other singles better though.
