Bad Meets Evil's 'Hell: The Sequel'

All you really need to know about Bad Meets Evil -- the duo of rappers Eminem and Royce da 5'9" -- is in the song "Lighters." The most pop-leaning song on "Hell: The Sequel" (Shady / Interscope) even features Bruno Mars singing a hook about living out dreams and wanting to see a "sky full of lighters." Instead of trying to match their rhymes to the hook, Eminem and Royce continue to try to manufacture shock by tossing in tasteless references to sex. Seems like a waste of time, much like the rest of these reheated leftovers.
