Last month Eminem released Kamikaze, a surprise album that took aim at just about 90% of your music library. His disdain for music's current climate was painfully obvious. On the album's opener, he says "he wants to punch the world in the fucking face right now," which is a toned-down insult coming from a rapper who used boasting about necrophilia, but a telling one nonetheless. He's angry, which isn't new, necessarily, but over the last couple of days in a series of interviews with Sway Calloway, he's made it clear that he kinda likes it that way. "There is something inside me that is like I’m a little more happy when I’m angry… There’s a rush that inspires me to say something back," he tells Sway. Eminem wouldn't be Eminem if he just got along with everyone, right?
