New Music: Maino “Survival Of The Fittest”

No, your ears are not fooling you. It appears that Maino had his hands on Boi-1da’s beat first for his sophomore album, The Day After Tomorrow. But instead, it ended up as Eminem’s single, which dropped earlier today. Don’t know the reasoning, but the whole thing kinda makes ya boy wonder.

Lowkey

    Somethin’ smells fishy…

  2. Can says:

    if Maino put this out, I think it’s tacky as fuck.

    I’m sure this kind of shit happens all the time- people doing songs on beats and it not working out for whatever reason and those beats going to someone else. but if it’s shelved it’s shelved. don’t put it out the day someone else’s shit drops and try to siphon the success and momentum from another man. c’mon son.

    wow!! seems like maybe a certain rapper from bed-stu was very shocked when he heard the new em record!!

  4. this version sounds like a rihianna song lol, besides them queensbridge boys did one hell of a tune back in 95 called “survival of the fittest” and this def isnt fuckin with it

  5. MHarstad says:

    Not Afraid>>>>>>>>>>>>>This..that whiny chorus on Maino’s version aint doin it for me..Not Afraid is dope because of what Em is saying on it and how he says it..this just sounds like a run of the mill Maino track

  6. Moose says:

    @cloutmag…. I like both songs personally, but if this sounds like Rihanna song, then Em’s shit sound like a Justin Beiber hit single. You can’t deny that Maino’s version is a better put together song, but Em has more power to it. Seriously, Em sings on his so how does Maino have the “rihanna’ type song? I don’t get it

    Damn. I know im putting myself on blast? I know im putting myself in the line of fire to be directly compared to Eminem? I know that what i did to that beat sounds like YN’s flow about DJ Khaled in the “You Played Yourself” section of Rapradar compared to what Eminem did to it? I know that the fact that i had it first is completely irrelevant because he came out with it first and did a MUCH better job than i did? I know i that i could just pretend like i never recorded to this song and burn the evidence?

    ah fuck it. let’s put it out there anyway.

    probly not even finished for 1..sound like he was shootin for a akon collab or suntn..sounds like that fab its my time song..shit trash anyway..i mean im not a maino fan so its typical maino…n its too obvious that he put it out on purpose today.. idk if he tryn to ride a wave or jus want publicity either way its corny..so its a FAIL..n i dnt even like usin that term lol

  9. mmkayy says:

    so basically boi1da gave eminem a beat that was just layin around *smh this makes me more mad that alchemist didnt make the album

    alc>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>boi1da

  10. ShawtyLoMane says:

    Putting the songs aside for a moment….why does no one ever comment on “Big Homie”‘s wack-ass one-liners he attempts in all of his posts.

    “…but the whole thing kinda makes a boy wonder.” *Cam’ron face*

  11. Cory says:

    what I don’t understand is why anyone would enjoy listening to Maino in the first place

  12. Oj Da Cornball says:

    Maino still ain’t gonna blow with this. lol

    If Maino didn’t pay for the beat before Em and did this he just created a bad rep with producers from here on.

    If Boi1da sold this to Maino then gave it to Em cause it’s a bigger placement he just screw up big time. This is like when Alchemist sold We Go Make it beat to Rass Kass then sold it to Jada.

    Em likely use this as a street single and not the official video single.

  13. Drucifer1983 says:

    I hate when producers do that, selling the same beat to multiple people

    Rass kass and Jadakiss had a similar dilemma with Alchemist years back

    And I like Maino, but let this one go homie, Em ate that beat up………….Do like Jigga said and move “On to the next one

  14. IKnow says:

    Maino killed it.

  15. Nolers 1 says:

    Not Afraid pt. 2 feat Maino?

  16. Belize says:

    *gulp*

    I like this better than the em jawn

  17. Chipped Tooth Condition says:

    this one’s dope too.. which is surprise because its wackass Maino

  18. Dman says:

    LOL what the fucks boi1da playin at? verses r dope on this chorus is horrible so eminem smashes it

  19. HOney says:

    It does sound like a Rihanna’s song..LMAO

  20. Champ says:

    i think boi-1da shudnt have sent da beat twice..i mean i find it disrespectful simply cos i know many producers who had had sent their beat to eminem for years like havoc (whose beats finally got picked for recovery)..i just dun like the “recycled beat sent to eminem” vibe
    but anw, this song is dope too..am not gonna hate
