    Is Encore still the worst album to date?

    It's been awhile since we discussed what album is the worse since his comeback. We are going to leave the classics out of this because it's obvious that it's not those. Do you still think Encore is the worst or has it finally aged well enough to deserve some credit/respect.

    In my opinon, I think Encore is great/average, it isn't terrible. The worst album has to be MMLP 2, this is the worst decision I think he ever made, Encore is light years better than this, the only good songs on MMLP 2 is "Bad Guy" "Brainless" (Maybe) & "Headlights", the rest sucks, this was a horrible attempt at trying to bring back his "crazy slim shady persona", his stop & go flow is absurd, I don't know how you can sit there and go through the album. Half of it towards the end doesn't even make any f---ing sense, it like totally goes off course like around 12 -13, if you think this is the greatest album since his return, you must not know what music is.

    Discuss what album you think is terrible.

    Relapse. Mostly because it had so much potential with all those great beats. Only good/great songs on there are Deja Vu, My Mom and Hello imo. Encore has a few more. Mmlp2 is just average and Recovery also has more good songs than Relapse.

    Recovery.

    I don't f---ing know, I guess I just dislike a lot of those wishy-washy subject matters. Still think it has good songs. Would say the same for Encore, but it had more solid tracks. s---, I don't even think Recovery is a bad hip-hop album, just a poor Eminem album.

    Encore is the only s----album Eminem dropped. 3/10 imo. Relapse, Recovery and MMLP2 are light-years better than this piece of s--- album.

    you talkin like the whole album was shady lmao

    I know what music is

    You would rather listen to My 1st Single, Big Weenie, a--- Like That, Puke & Just Loose It, than to 3 A.M., Deja Vu, Beautiful, Stay Wide Awake, etc.?

    I have a bad bias with Encore because I listened to that album way too much as a kid. But I would rather listen to Yellow Brick Road, Like Toy Soldiers, Mosh, Mockingbird, and Encore over those songs you picked. as a whole.:jordan:

    His Yellow Brick Road flow is so monotone/boring & I never liked Mockingbird imo, but the other tracks are dope

    MMLP 2. Eminem had the flow of Christopher Walken, corny lyricism, and overall just felt like he made that album to please his pre-installed fans.

    Never understood the problem with "corny" and "cringeworthy" lyrics since they're almost non existent lol

    My current ranking of his albums. Relapse is easily the worst album if his career. If you wanna compare it to Encore: Encore was a good album with a handful of awful songs on it. Relapse was the exact opposite. It was an awful album with a handful of good songs on it. That being said Encore is nowhere near as bad as we originally thought. Replace the goofy/joke songs with the bonus tracks and you'd have a GREAT album. Meanwhile MMLP2 is not a bad album. But it is his most meaningless and forgettable. It's the definition of average. Recovery shouldn't even be on this list. It's a great album all the way through, and still easily his best work since 8 Mile. The first three albums, as we all know, are classics, with The Eminem Show being the best of the bunch.

    1. TES- 10/10- classic
    2. MMLP- 10/10- classic
    3. SSLP- 9/10- classic
    4. Recovery- 8/10- great
    5. Encore- 6/10- good
    6. MMLP2- 5/10- average
    7. Relapse- 3/10- bad
