Drug dependence, the murder of your best friend, the collapse of your marriage can break an individual. After the flood of issues in which Eminem was literally drowning during the last months, many people thought that the skilled rapper would retire from the rap game.
However Eminem is a stand up man with that thick skin that allowed him to resist to life tempests.

Eminem is back with his crew, stronger than ever, bringing to you his new hard worked on CD, the Re Up mixtape.

Joyful violin sounds, gunshots, hammering drum beats starts Shady Narcotics which is the prelude to the mixtape in which Eminem introduces his crew: D12, Obie Trice, 50 Cent, Stat Quo, Bob Creek and Cashis.

From the oldest to the newest members, everyone has his precise place and plays his role in this valuable team work.

We're Back: the shady soldiers are back, more offensive than ever, with razor blades alike words. Big mouth running haters be ready to be punched right in the face. Eminem, Obie, Bob Creek, Cashis and Stat Quo will smash the jealous hoes in the game. Any underground artist aims at becoming mainstream someday: so don't hate, congratulate!

Gunshots, numerous violins, a dark bassline totally situate the context: the arise of a lyrical battle is imminent.

The heat increases as Obie Trice spits lyrical bullets on a Pistol Pistol sample.

As the sky gets cloudy and darker, you can smell the smoke in the air. Bizarre and Kuniva reinforce the roughness of the hell of a murderous ambience. Be ready for war while keyboard, drums and dark vocals combined with some gunshots will portray you the Detroit hood like it is.
I think that Bizarre and Kuniva's beautiful performance needs to be pointed out. I recommend you the song. Don't sleep on that one.

Everything Is Shady: let Cashis take over in the scurrilous themed song.
The Shady gladiators are teaming up and will leave their enemies lying lifeless, lyrically speaking.

Eminem and 50 Cent introduce you to The Re Up in a rhythmic beat box mode. The song is beautifully rhythmic, Eminem's vocal performance is well handled from the beginning to the end. 50 Cent will keep on with the same beautiful spirit that will remind many of you of the Get Rich Or Die Trying album. Good job!

You Don't Know is a classic, already. I reviewed the song and the video a while ago.
