    Em at the age of 40 thinking he could make a legitimate sequel to arguably his best album was the worst Em.

    he had 6 solo tracks on xv (7 if we include vegas). these 6 solo tracks are withtout a doubt by far better than the middle of encore. not better than the best encore tracks if we include the bonus cuts

    mmlp2 is dope

    Thank you for that bold statement of Shady XV songs being better than Rain Man, a--- Like That, Big Weenie, and My 1st Single.

    I want Encore 2. This can be a really good challenge in order to give more dignity to the original sequel of TES.

    And if you think MMLP2 is dope than you're either 15 or have never listened to any Em material from 99-03 .

    nope, not true at all. eminem has never kept the same flow or voice for two consecutive albums. he was going to change it up regardless of the reception he got. (plus em seems to think recovery is his best album since 2002 so...)

    Thinking about Recovery, that era gave us Airplanes pt. 2.
    Probably my favourite 'modern day' Eminem verse

    But isn't that The Eminem Cycle?
    People hate on Eminem's stuff and then they wish Em could go back to it (i.e. Relapse, Recovery, soon MMLP2 and soon Shady XV so help us god)
