    Album sequels RARELY live up to the original.

    This is completely your fault. If you thought Eminem was going to all of a sudden drop something of the caliber of his first 3 albums just because of the album title, that's completely on you lol. His last two projects before MMLP2 were BME (which is mediocre at best) & Recovery (which is decent at best). That's not to mention the list of forgettable/cringe worthy features he had as well leading up to the album.

    Chill with the hostility man. It was just my experience. I had just gotten my hopes up and it ended up being something different. No matter what he does I'll always have faith in Em. And I still enjoyed that album for what it was.

    What hostility? lol i'm just saying..... if after years of dropping mediocre-decent material you thought all of a sudden he was going to drop a classic, that's kind of on you lol.

    "This is completely your fault" That's pretty blunt and hostile. And all I meant was that I will always keep the faith in my favorite artists that they have the ability to drop one last classic. EG: Hemingway's The Old Man And The Sea. Although I really did hate that book.
