Dr. Dre and Rick Rubin have crafted, or at least enabled, a few too many of the power -
ballad slow jams that Eminem has grown increasingly fond of, alongside several guitar - driven anthems that come on as subtle as Jock Jams.
The most effective songs — the dragging
slow jam «My Blood,» the sweetly chiming
ballad «Mediator,» and the woozy and bittersweet title track — are the least cluttered, from the comparatively sparse production to the judicious lack of guest vocalists.
