So you’ve created the dope new game DJ Hero, which our very own DJ Z just previewed, and you’re recruiting rappers to appear on the soundtrack for the Renegade Edition. If your first call isn’t to Eminem, who’s been the very definition of a hip-hop renegade for a decade now, I don’t know what you’re doing. Sure enough, the invitation was extended and Slim Shady accepted, hand-picking the new track Taking My Ball. Only slightly less dark than his work on Relapse, Taking My Ball was produced by the man himself and includes, in no particular order, references to anal sex with Kim Kardashian, sniffing Magic Markers and covering your penis in peanut butter. In other words, hide the women and children, this is vintage Shady. You can hear more outlaw hip-hop behavior when the DJ Hero: Renegade Edition Soundtrack drops on December, 27. Stay tuned to DJBooth for more.

mmcoolman2000: i hope u dont like gucci or soulja boy or any of those type
Eminem is my favorite rapper, but i dont really like this, the hook is cool, but i am honestly sick of this accent, i can take a little dose of it, but after listening to Relapse plenty of times, i am sick of it... thank god this isn't on Relapse 2, well hopefully |

i just had to comment on this. ok replaying it since the morning...
THE BEAT IS STUPID CRAZY. this has to be dre. it grows on you like you dunno. the hook, and the beat = BEAST BANGER. ok now for the lyrics...not feeling it he needs to lose the accent and make sense. also stop dissing celebs. if he had normal lyrics with a normal voice this would be 5*. beat is DEEZED |

He did say that R2 was going to be a lot like his other stuff. Lately he's been doing a new thing with his voice which after a full album of it I still don't know how I feel. But for this song it works.

Pretty good Em record. This isn't album material so I'm not judging it as highly as I will for R2. The flow and lyrics on here were vintage Eminem even though he went back to that accent persona. Pretty hot though and cool for a video game marketing standpoint.

Say whatever you want about the accent... the flow (rhythm & metrics) is great!
Beat is catchy and he's just having fun with the lyrics. @mmcoolman2000: that's exactly it, it's not supposed to be taken seriously. |

i know this song is a joke, but what about eminem himself? every time he does a song with this accent, the song essentially becomes something stupid to just listen to once and then never listen to again. His older songs had REPLAY VALUE. if he wants to be to a freak he should go join the freak show and use the voice as much as he wants.

@D3lit3 - I'm truly flattered and honored you track my ratings back to August '08. Don't know why I'm defending it, but there are far more better records in the history of hip hop that are better than this one. I call it like I hear it.

Man I actually like this song.
Think about it; this is a song for a VIDEO GAME. A video game. How many hip hop songs from video games would you listen to? Exxactly, the list is very short. |

Is it better then some of the tracks on Relpase = Yes
Is it what you expect from Eminem = No Production is decent & Em is ok, though nothin flash. Looking forward to hearing Em spit on some Just Blaze beats, I have a feeling it will get Em back to his best. |

The day Eminem can finally say whatever the F*** he wants to on a song and a company will pay him for it, and have it represent their business is the day Eminem has really defined Renegade. Still the only original man in hip hop today.

I'm with Gstan10. Em sounds like he's just having fun with this song. We already know he got drop a smash at any time. Though he has a limited catalog of "radio classics" he can swtich his rapping style on this and turn it into a hot record.

OK so the song gets a three from me, but Em gets an extra star for making me crack up 3 times throughout the song. Dude is out of his mind. I think the accent is his way of saying im just playing around so dont take this stuff seriously

This comment is going to cause a lot of controversy but am I the only one who likes Eminem rapping over his own beats than Dre's? He produced the entire Eminem Show and I think that's the best produced of all of his albums. Call me crazy but that's just my opinion.
The production on this one is great and the chorus is strong, so were the verses. No real complaints other than I'm waiting on a serious Eminem song for once. Banger. |
