    TES marked a moment where Em embraced Serious Artist status. MMLP was like a 75-minute "f--- you" to anyone and everyone, mostly unconcerned with what critics had to say. TES on the other hand has a lot of that same anger, but it's far more interested in artistic credibility than anything before it (like, take a look at the Aerosmith sample for example, and something like Hailie's Song as well). Em got a taste of being taken seriously and liked how it felt. For that reason I think a lot of his fanbase elevated it despite obvious flaws (myself included, at the time!) - it felt like he was operating on a different playing field. That doesn't mean it's necessarily better than what came before it, though - I would argue that is isn't, and ambition aside, it falls short in different ways

    honestly.

    SSLP was funny, witty, and well written
    MMLP was more angry, was a better reflection of his current reality, and still had some of the wit from his previous offering
    TES was disjointed, unfunny, and borderline cringe but was a display of the pop elements in eminem's music at its best

    and that is a full comprehensive list of his "good" albums.

    bro how are you a fan of young thug when you have shown in this thread you have absolutely 0 grasp of his music lol.

    you're like the kid who get's go go a lakers game because his dad got free tickets, and then claims he's a fan even though the only player he can name on the team retired last year.

    if you were a young thug fan you would have, at the very least, a slight grasp on this conversation.

    instead you're in this thread running around like a chicken with his head cut off with no posts that hold any water. throwing around buzz words and cop outs like "subjective" and "impact" do not help your case.

    it's easy to say you're a thug fan to try and add some credibility to your argument, but you're not.

    ya i mean who doesnt like fantasizing about stabbing their wife for over an hour

    thug: switches between different time signatures and tempos like its nothing

    mnm: boring duplets or unintelligable double time in annoying south park esque voice as usual

    thug: blossoming out of the harsh environments depicted in b6, accepting his born name, paying homage

    mnm: took the album cover on a stage and called it the em show

    em: edgy violent murder for school shooters
    thug: love and family values

    thug: paved the way between the blurred lines of singing and rapping, introducing cadences and soundscapes now used by every mainstream hip hop artist

    tes: inspired white suburban kids to get guns and s---t up schools

    u had 2 be sleeping to not feel the earthquake that jeff left

    impact of tes is it made dre insanely senile

    "Isn't even an album?

    What does this even mean? Mixtapes are pretty much albums these days.

    not sure why people try to play this card lol. i signed up on SL when I was 13 years old and the only rap music I knew at the time was Eminem and a few other big artists. So not really sure what you're trying to do here with saying that.

    not really

    if TES is really eminem's best project, then it's just a marker of whether or not the forum feels like current thug is better than prime eminem.

    and they do.
