On “Berzerk,” the second single from Eminem‘s highly anticipated upcoming album The Marshall Mathers LP 2, a snippet of which was previewed during the VMAs, Slim Shady (thank god he goes by three different names) demands that everyone take off their shoes, let their hair down, and go berzerk all night.
UPDATE: Here is the video clip from his bizarre ESPN interview
I’ll give out the shoes part and maybe even the hair, but all night? That’s too much berzerk for any one man.

Eh. It’ll probably be big. Pretty ostentatious. Interesting choice to overshadow the lyrics and vocals so much though.
It better sample Birdzerk: [birdzerk.com]
This is gonna fuel ALOT of hate, and ALOT of Stan-defense.
My 2 pennies : It’s interesting, and it’s done by a legendary artist who is doing something retro – original.
No classic but a cool track. His lead singles are always bubblegum, this at least has some nostalgic heart to it…….. . …. Better than most rap/crap.
Nice sampling of Billy Squier. I’m actually surprised no other major rap artist has sampled that for a hook before…
well it can’t be the best track of all time w/o calling out some shitty rappers…but it’s an interesting track. i agree the mix is interesting (overshadowing the vocal track somewhat).
I kinda dig it. Don’t have any more thorough analysis than that right now.
I will say that sequel album titles are a pet peeve of mine. Mainly because they usually are just for promotional reasons and have very little to do with the original concept of whatever album they’re sequelizing. This track doesn’t exactly make me think of the Marshall Mathers LP in the slightest.
it sucks cuz dude is really my top 5 dead or alive and i cant listen to anything past the eminem show…
I love Eminem and completely agree with the “one of the best ever” hype, but this song is annoying and obnoxious.
Hopefully it grows on me.
