    I think if Devil's Night was a solo project it would be his best.

    If he made an entire album based around the 8 Mile movie, in the vein of 8 Mile Road and Rabbit Run, it'd be the best thing he would have ever done. But like most of his career... missed opportunity.

    With a tracklist looking similar to this?
    1. Lose Yourself- on 8 Mile
    2. The Sauce- recorded in 2002
    3. Stimulate- 8 Mile bonus song
    4. We As Americans- recorded during the 8 mile sessions or directly after
    5. Love You More- same as We As Americans
    6. 8 Mile- on 8 Mile
    7. Rap Game- on 8 Mile
    8. Love Me- on 8 Mile
    9. Spend Some Time- recorded during the 8 Mile sessions (no Stat Quo verse)
    10. Rabbit Run- on 8 Mile
    11. No Apologies- the first 2 verses were written during TES so it's highly likely a version existed by the 8 Mile album

    I'd probably rank his albums as MMLP>8 Mile>TES>SSLP if this were the tracklist

    Eminem gave away too many great verses for the D12 albums as well.

    Devils night as solo album wouldve been great.
    Same for D12 world, he should've used his verses on encore as replacement for songs like big weenie and a--- like that and whatever.
    then it could've been waayyy better

    Always had the opinion that 8 Mile + D12 ruined Eminem's potential discography.

    GOAT era of Eminem IMO. 8 Mile Road/Run Rabbit Run..god d---. Amazing songs. Amazing flow. That was the same time Sauce/Nail in the Coffin came out..and Soldier and Till I Collapse.

    If he could only rap in that style all the time..f---.
