Feb 18, 2015 I think TES probably "sounds" the best, it's the more modern sounding of the 3. Also, TES is more personal than SSLP/MMLP, so it probably gets more of a pass because of that too. SSLP and MMLP are way more interesting, fun and creative than TES though. SSLP was so much fun to listen to. Easily his most unpredictable album. Album had everything you want as a hip hop fan. Brilliant. MMLP was unpredictable too, but in a darker way.. It's not to say TES was bad, I love the album... It just seemed way more tamed and controlled... I thought it was a SAFER album to make. SSLP and MMLP might've "aged" badly to most of the younger fans, but I don't think they have. The production isn't modernized, and maybe most don't like the nasally sound of Eminem's delivery on SSLP, but I'd pick a song like Guilty Conscience / 97 Bonnie and Clyde / Brain Damage / As The World Turns over most of TES. I think people look at the immaturity of SSLP and roll their eyes because of how used to Eminem's immaturity everyone has become. So, I get that it's tiring and boring by now. However, at the time, it was genius. I just don't think certain albums can be as enjoyed as other albums if you didn't experience them first hand. It's like listening to Run DMC now, I can understand the impact it had, but can't enjoy the music.
Feb 18, 2015 I often go back and forth in my opinions. But TES is always the best album to me. Perfect flow, the way he delivered , the concept. PERFECT
Feb 18, 2015 When I'm f---ing depressed and being Pissed off by b------s I go for Mmlp. I'm a criminal When I'm at steady mood normal feeling I go for TES But technically in my brain TES is perfect
