    Didn't even bother listening to the full D12 track after hearing the snippet I was so glad to hear Eminem wasn't on that

    for what it is, I really like this project more than I expected I would. solid efforts by Yela and Slaughterhouse, and Vegas is pretty good as well, though I'm not the biggest fan of that style.

    Meh, didn't have my hopes up from the start. Only tracks I liked on the album were psychopath killer, original lose yourself and Vegas. The only good part I found about bane was the beat. eminem should have saved that beat for himself.

    DvE and Twisted grew on me, especially the production on dve is great. Eminem did a great job on this album with that.

    Anyone got production credits for each track?

    Album was disappointing, tho thats to be expected now with Em. Listened to it once and haven't again yet. His flows all over, and I'm tired of these pop hooks.

    Really happy that Em has chose to work more with Luis Resto again. His production suits him. If only he could do the same with the Bass Brothers...

    Real talk though, it absolutely kills the album, regardless of content. Couldn't even make it through all the songs the second time through.

    This is definitely his worst album. s---, I'd even take D12 world over this. It didn't even have that "nostalgic grace period" that MMLP2 had before its lack of replay value quickly became apparent.

    Lol the only nostalgic mmlp2 had was one song and one skit. Not saying you did this but the whole nostalgic bs about mmlp2 is a cheap cover up for liking the f--- out of it when it first came out before coming to your senses and realizing what board you're on. Mmlp2 had little to none what so ever.

    No, I totally agree. The references to old songs ("slim, chauvanist pig" in Bad Guy, the criminal interpolation in Rhyme or Reason, the uncensored columbine reference in Rap God) did make me super nostalgic for old Eminem when I first listened to the album, but that didn't hold up for long. After I took of my nostalgia goggles, it was easy to see how flawed of an album it was.

    I thought this myself. Some parts of the album, especially the Twisted chorus don't sound CDQ. I thought it would just be a problem with the downloaded version but then I bought it and the quality is the same. Wtf?

    Psychopath Killer is the best song hands down, even though Em kinda ruins the song there at the end with his whack flow. Next to it is Twisted and Fine Line is pretty good too. Nothing spectacular. Pretty forgettable tbh. Now I'm jammin to Haim.

    All the tracks on the album sound like throwaway tracks. Nothing memorable about it. Quite lame that the only unreleased track is the lose yourself demo. Paul knows Em stans will buy anything with his name on it.
