Paul Wall and DJ.Fresh make something new for the slabs in the south with new song "Riding With The Top Down." The track marks the latest preview of their upcoming collaborative album, The Tonite Show, and delivers a smooth, Houston-inspired ride rooted in nostalgia and regional pride.
Over a relaxed, bass-heavy production, Paul Wall returns to form with a breezy performance that celebrates the simplicity of cruising through Texas streets. His verses mix reflections on perseverance and success with playful nods to Houston car culture. With the hook, “Ridin’ with my top diine,” Wall taps into a timeless Southern motif, blending charisma with lyrical clarity.
DJ.Fresh’s production builds on that foundation. Subtle piano flourishes and slow-rolling drums give the track a soulful backbone, recalling Houston’s chopped-and-screwed legacy without falling into pastiche. The mix strikes a careful balance between vintage warmth and contemporary crispness, ensuring the sound feels both classic and current.
“Riding With the Top Down” showcases both artists in their element—Wall embracing his roots with style and swagger, Fresh guiding the atmosphere with restraint and polish. Together, they deliver a sound that is distinctly regional yet accessible on a national scale.
As momentum builds for The Tonite Show, this single signals a promising chapter for two veterans who understand the enduring power of a good ride-out anthem.
Quotable Lyrics
Everything top of the line, I put the work in
If its slab talk, you came too the right person
Floor mats perisan, I'm about to take you on an excursion
I come around that corner like 'Lord have mercy'
Never skip a step to the top -- all legit
Well coordinate how the car match my fit

Just like he did on The Death of Slim Shady, Eminem is once again serving his STANS a wave of nostalgia with “Everybody’s Looking at Me.” The track is one of twelve featured on the official soundtrack that accompanies his documentary, which explores how his music has shaped and influenced his devoted fan base. Beyond that, it also reflects on the Detroit icon’s early breakthrough and rise to fame.
The film’s theatrical run may have wrapped up, but today Eminem officially released the soundtrack that goes along with it. The project is a blend of his classic hits alongside unreleased material. Familiar favorites like “Rap God” and “Just Don’t Give a F*ck” appear, while deeper unreleased cuts add something fresh for longtime listeners.
“Everybody’s Looking at Me” falls into the latter category. Rather than being a forgotten song left on the cutting room floor, Eminem built it from a freestyle with the same title that Funk Flex first premiered back in 2002. The original version featured Proof, though in this updated release, his part is absent, and Slim Shady comes through with two brand new verses.
The first verse remains intact from the freestyle, but what makes it even more interesting is the fact that a brief snippet of the track can be heard for just a moment on “The Kiss (Skit)” from The Eminem Show.
On “Everybody’s Looking at Me,” Eminem sounds like his old self at the top of his game. The song combines his signature dark comedy, sharp commentary on the music industry's flaws, and layers of clever wordplay.
To add to the nostalgia, the beat crafted by Dr. Dre instantly takes listeners back to the chemistry that has defined so much of their past work together. In the end, it is impressive to see Eminem rework this freestyle into a whole track that still feels high-quality and true to his legacy.

Quotable Lyrics:
Type who might throw his underwear in the trash and wipe his a*s with the American flag like Marilyn Manson (Ha-ha)
Updated Axl Rose
White vеrsion of Shaft, pimp slappin' h*es
Pull up like a Mac, jet black limos
Strеtch so far back, can't see the back windows
