    Basically Em has problems with trying to be funny, his flow. Fix that, and we might be getting his fourth best album in couple of years.

    Problem is, even thought MMLP2 seemed like a step up at first glance, it didn't even have that one song that would stand the test of time. Not even one.

    Very good effort, I'm pleasantly surprised if you put aside the choppy flow on some Em songs. Vegas is amazing from that respect though

    I think people forget Eminem has been working with the same group of people since 2001 and you shouldn't really judge how the albums sound based on Eminem but the people around him. Obviously to them the albums sound great but hip hop music is sample based. It's not like a real band in a room playing real instruments and then going to different studios with different engineers. Eminem just sits in Detroit with the same engineers and Luis Resto beside him so everyting will sound a bit samey.

    Sad to say, Bad Guy became just as forgettable as the rest of MMLP2.

    f---ing loving the Twisted track right now... Yelawolf's verse is amazing.. Em's "singing" is also really good to listen to for some reason, even though he cant really sing.. just something about it, best track on the album for me.

    Most of this album is unlistenable...
    Em still rapping with this new r-----ed, choppy, stop/start flow. I can't stand it!

    That's probably because he didn't produce anything himself since relapse
