    Were a solo effort by Eminem, where do you think it would fall among his albums? Would it be his best? Better than MMLP or TES?
    Imagine the singles
    1. Purple Pills
    2. Fight Music
    3. It Aint Nothin but Music
    5. Instigator
    6. Pistol Pistol
    All with three verses from Eminem
    What would you rate it? I think it would have been his greatest album.

    pretty good thread actually

    hmmmmmm

    i adore devils night, and i think if biz wasnt in it, i would rank it rly rly high.....but if you assume its all Em...it would easily be his 4th best

    wait, right now it is his 4th best album

    I think it would be just as good as MMLP and The Eminem Show. He was so on point in 2001.

    would probably be his best album

    I would seriously consider giving a finger for either Revelation, American Psycho, Devil's Night or Fight Music with all (2001) Em verses

    no shots intended at @Stephen

    think about all the bass brothers production em would have used for the Eminem show or an other project if they weren't no d12.....4 classic in a row, not a single artist has ever released 4 classic in a row.GUy would be real goat.

    Devil's Night is still a 9-9.5/10 album, so I'd say he did have 4 consecutive classics

    fair comment, i dnt mind BIZ in this project tbh. I think he actually adds to the humour of certain tracks. It's a shame that there will never be another D12 album again.

    Never really liked Infinite, fair enough he raps his a--- off but I didn't really like the themes nor the beats that much. I would score it lower if his rapping wasn't on point.

    well Em was still developing his own rap style and sound, he got a lot of feedback saying he sounded like AZ. the production was pretty weak as well, all done by Mr. Porter.

    Em said it was basicly a demo that got pressed up

    It certainly isn't the best and ranks the lowest in his discography, but I really like Infinite.
