Dear Em, Please Stop using that voice...

Eminem has released his second single from relapse, "3am." Lyrically the content is much better than "We Made You" although admittedly its pretty messed up as it looks into the mind of a psychotic killer. The music video is even more messed up. But all I can think about as I listen to it is how much better it COULD have been if Eminem had just used his regular voice, rather than the parody voice he's used on his past handful of singles. The dark song sounds more like a joke as his pisses his nasaly voice all over it.

Take a look at the video (in all seriousness it is not an MTV video. It contains a fair amount of disturbing shit. Just a heads up).

I like everything about the video/song EXCEPT his voice. I hope these first two singles are flukes and he uses his real voice on the rest of the album. Time will tell.
