I liked a good portion of the album, So Bad, No Love, Talking 2 Myself, Going Through Changes, You're never over (except the horrible hook) It was just an album that might have been too poppy and eminem screamed a lot..

I disliked it because I wanted more Relapse. In hindsight, it wasn't bad, it just wasn't what I wanted.

Funny shyt is non-eminem fans, at least at the time were fukkin with that album, which was another annoyance.

Highlights of the album:
Talkin to myself
Cold wind blows (some weak lines, liked the overall laid back tone)
On fire (most likely a Relapse 2 leftover)
Seduction ( great song, shoulda been a single)
Won't back down (some iffy lines but overall cool)
No love
So bad
Almost famous (underrated)
Untitled (he wrecked that shyt)
Going through changes
25 to life
Cinderella man

All decent to great tracks.

The pop singles (love the way you lie, spacebound, not afraid) did what they were supposed to do but I didn't like them very much.

Wack shyt:
WTP
You're never over

Well over half the album was quality, way better than the album that followed.

Relapse >>>>>>>>>>>

Recovery and MMLP2 are far and away his worst efforts.

Relapse had some tough beats and I was just excited to hear another Em project after all those years.

In order, imo:
MMLP
Eminem Show
SSLP
Infinite
Relapse
Encore




MMLP2 / Recovery

That screamo flow :scust:

I think people hate on it is because it's different content/production wise for the most part from the rest of his albums. If you take the album for what it is it's actually pretty good imo

Talking to myself
No love
Space bound
25 to life
Seduction
Going through changes
So bad
Session 1
Cinderella Man

Unpopular opinion but it's Easily better then relapse and I cannot for the life of me see how people say it's even worse than encore

What makes relapse so good to some people btw? Probably about 4 or 5 songs were good and weren't completely ruined by that accent or outdated shock lyrics, most of that album hurt my ears

The beats. The shock lyrics are corny, yeah, but some songs actually had some substance.

All dope tracks.
