Comment:

Eminem has a sensitive side? Not exactly, but the windswept strings, creeping keys, and swiftly slain rhymes of “Crazy In Love” — directed at his ex-wife/regularly scheduled muse, Kim — are as close as hip-hop comes to couples therapy. Meanwhile, Nas lets his guard down in “Getting Married”; A Tribe Called Quest take friendship to another level alongside the cooler-than-thou jazz club chords of “Find a Way”; and the Roots serve up a pair of late-night listens — a loose, live version of “You Got Me” (featuring the song’s cowriter, Jill Scott) and the slow-burning soundscapes of “Silent Treatment.”
