May 21, 2015 @csw621 so: relapse is better than only built for cuban linx pt 2? recovery is better than my beautiful dark twisted fantasy? bad meets evil is better than undun? marshal mathers lp 2 is better than run the jewels? shady xv is better than run the jewels 2 or pinata?
May 21, 2015 twelve year olds and csw are the only people who still think its cool to reference eminem and the middle finger
May 21, 2015 but opinions are opinions, not facts. I agree that relapse gets s--- on pretty hard but at the end of the day, there are some really awful songs on there imo... Still better than Encore. Songs like My Mom, Deja Vu, Hello... fantastic. Same Song and Dance ain't too shabby either. I thought you didn't like relapse? how would you compare relapse to MMLP2?
May 21, 2015 I would not say that he's the best alive, but he has some undeniable qualities: 1) He always re-invent himself with a new "rapping style" on each new album 2) He's an awesome technician (and even if it's not the only thing that matter in rap it's still a quality) 3) He has a rare longevity (he has been capable to interest a HUGE public for more than 15 years) 4) He's incredible at improvisation (his few freestyles since his come-back ) So don't tell me he stinks please
May 21, 2015 no, dont tell me this is all it takes to be considered great 1) you didnt talk about the "new rapping styles" not being executed well 2) as you said this is only 1 element 3) nothing to do with the music 4) nothing to do with the music
May 21, 2015 He has has some corny a--- lines, edgy lyrics, and dogshit production. There's no denying that his technicality is great, but in my opinion, storytelling and subject matter >> "lyrical miracle spiritual individual". By no means is he (imo) the "greatest rapper alive"
May 21, 2015 i was just trying to name albums he might know lol but to be fair, i did think rtj1 was the best album of that year back then. and kinda still do
