Wow... glad you decided to judge the entire album off TWO RADIO SINGLES! Good job buddy.
But in reality the word play and multi syllable rhymes used in this album are untouchable. He has actually matured lyrically over the years and has even surpassed his best rhymes from prior albums. Some examples of very subtle, easily missed punchlines:
Quote:
Not Afraid: "What you think, I'm doing this for me, so **** the world
Feed it beans, it's gassed up, if it thinks its stopping me"
Almost Famous: "When I come back like nut on your spine"
You're Never Over: "So I'm gonna fukc 'til I die, yeah I'ma DO IT to death"
You're Never Over: "Excuse the corny metaphor. They'll never catch up (ketchup) to all this energy that I've mustered (mustard)"
Cinderella Man: "Sheit my Potatoes baked homie the veggies on my plate can fly. My filet is smokin weed, yea f****t the steaks (stakes) are high"
No Love: "When I'm not even in my harshest
You can still get roasted because Marsh (Marshall) is not mellow (Marshmallow)"
Cold Wind Blows: "I'll be nicer to women when the Aqua Man drowns and The Human Torch starts swimming"
Untitled: "Put the math back into Mathers cause I'm a fukin' problem"
"Girl you got a hot butt/ like a lit cigarette"
"Every last word that you ****in **** heard/ come straight from the fish's a$$ yeah in other words I'm a bass turd/lookin at me like I killed Kenny (you *******!)"
"Eat your heart out, Hannibal"
"Listen garden tool, don't make me introduce you to my power tool, you know the ****in DRILL, how you DOOSHBAGS feel knowin you're DISPOSABLE, summer's eve, massengill"
"Here I come screaming ATTACK(A TAC!) like I just stepped on one!"

Really if you can touch that lyrically, please enlighten us smart guy.
