    This s--- been done to death but it's been a couple years. New albums have come out. Post your rankings.

    1) The Eminem Show
    2) Marshall Mathers LP
    3) Slim Shady LP
    4) Recovery
    5) Relapse (Including Refill)
    6) Encore
    7) MTBMB Side A & B
    8) MMLP2
    9) Kamikaze
    10) Revival

    Might seem crazy to have Encore that high but it's mostly a nostalgia thing.

    Also without Refill Relapse is pretty weak. But I included Refill when ranking them because some of the best songs are on there.

    In terms of quality, MTBMB probably s----s on Encore but Encore is one of them B Level comedy movies you like even tho it's considered s---.

    Nostalgia is very strong lol first three will always be classics but I'd be lying if I said most of that stuff isn't an instant skip or not able to finish. A lot of ems earlier stuff is just very dull. IMO MMLP will always be his best album but the chance of me actually listening to the full album is very small and before anyone calls me a "kangol new fan virgin" I've been a fan since mmlp. Ranking all his albums would mean I'd have to put some real thought into it but I will say mmlp 1 and Kamikaze 2 if we count side a and b as one full album that takes number 3 if not it's a toss between that tes and sslp. Only albums I absolutely do not like are revival and encore.

    If we could rewrite history if devils night would've been a solo album that would've been his best album. If sslp had till h--- freezes over low down and dirty murder murder full length demon inside instead of some of the weaker tracks (my fault) would've been 1 or 2.

    As a whole Eminem will never make another album amazing start to end the way he did with mmlp and tes. Even when he comes close to me at least he always manages to f--- it up.

    I respect your opinion but that is honestly the worst take i've seen in a while lol

    Nostalgia has nothing to do with my top 3. That top 3 is probably a lot of peoples top 3 as well and for a good reason.

    The content, the concepts, the music. Everything was new. Em was hungry. He had s--- to rap about.

    I won't argue your ranking and why in the world you would place Kamikaze 2nd but cmon. Saying my top 3 is because of nostalgia is ridiculous.

    TES was the first album I heard when it came out. I only listened to SSLP and MMLP years later. Like not until Relapse came out.

    Who in their right mind would put Kamikaze and MTBMB over The Eminem Show. Seriously @Carnifex ?

    You gotta be shittin me.

    Understandable for someone who discovered Em in later years and never really bothered delving into his older stuff but from a fan since MMLP?

    :hard:

    I wish I could really sit here and give reasoning but I don't really have that kind of time lol I respect your opinion though but one thing is I'm not saying Kamikaze or MTBMB is better than the first three I'm simply saying I'd rather listen to those instead and like them more
    If we're saying what's his best album start to finish the first three take the cake

    I feel like you often refer to me indirectly when it comes to Eminem but that I shouldn't take it personally.

    I get what you're saying. Those albums are more recent and might not have been played to death. But that wasn't really the point.

    The question was more about the albums and how you would rank them all things considered. It's not about what you feel like bumping right now.

    No I like you I just feel like every time I see you interacting with people it's arguing with them or maybe like you said in the group chat you don't mean to come off so serious but you do but either way I don't want you to feel like I'm attacking you or the other way around if I had a problem with you I'd say so

    I mean in general I still do like those albums more than the classics but if you're strictly asking what's his best start to finish no skips no adding no removing than my answer would be a bit different but even saying so the recent 3 wouldn't be so low. Relapse is good but needs refill to be worthy of the high praise recovery is good but songs like cocaine would've been much better on the album than Cinderella man same with s--- can be said about MMLP2 etc.
