    Nah, i can respect if you say that track like GTC, SpaceBound or Seduction are fantastic.
    But... Cinderella Man?
    So Bad have a nice production but the lyrics are not that good.
    You're Never Over only have a decent verse (the last) the rest is s---.

    Recovery took longer for me to get into, but once I did I enjoyed it.
    GTC >>>

    So? Doesn't take away from the fact that it's forgettable lol. No one is going to look back on Eminem's career and be like "d---.... That song "So Bad" though" lol "Fack" is more memorable than "So Bad."

    1) you said "rhyme or reason> gtc and space bound
    2) you put wtp in the same category as gtc, space bound and talkin 2 myself
    3) you said seduction is mediocre
    :laff:

    T2M shouldn't be in the same category as Space Bound or GTC

    Nah.

    I said that the songs of MMLP 2 as a whole are better than those of Recovery.
    GTC is a top 10 since his comeback.

    WTP is a decent song.
    I forget about Seduction.

    remembering relapse or encore because half of the songs are great and half are unlistenable doesn't make mmlp2 more forgettable
    and forgettable is by definition opinion anyone could say that. the lyrics are on point, he's still working out what he wants to sound like. i'm glad he's making music during this period as opposed to 05-08

    the theme is that most of the songs are from the point of view of marshall mathers, as opposed to (the) slim shady (lp) or (the) eminem (show). these are once again characters that he plays and maybe not everyone cares to keep up with it all. and mmlp2's counting is, for the idk how manyth time, an act as well. watch the cypher again maybe, i can't in good conscience say that the studio album that got him from recovery to that is forgettable

    but since this is which is the better album not whose highs are debatably higher, i agree with the op, the following post and the poll

    Its actually by far his best since his comeback. I remember when it first leaked it was getting great reviews & being called a modern TES lol.

    It does have alot better songs than Relapse & MMLP2 like Talkin 2 Myself,No Love,Cinderella Man, 25 to Life,Space Bound,Going Thru Changes,Seduction. Its not perfect (too much repetitive shouting,generic production on certain songs) but still a very good album.

    I wish all the tracks were mixed by Dre on it as some of the beats sound unfinished & rushed unlike Relapse where the production was very good but the content terrible.

    I don't know, never listen to either one of them as a whole but I think I enjoy the equal amount of songs from recovery/mmlp2 now. Relapse just 2/3

    If Em dropped the accents on Relapse it would definitely be my favorite, but right now its Recovery I can listen to that album all the way through.

    My rating of all Eminem albums..

    Infinite - 6/10
    SSLP - 10/10
    MMLP - 10/10
    TES - 9/10
    Encore - 5/10
    Relapse - 7/10
    Recovery - 6/10
    MMLP2 - 6.5/10 (after multiple in depth listens)

    How anyone can find joy in any post 'Eminem Show' album is beyond me.
