Jan 25, 2017 Was listening to Get Rich earlier today. Amazing album. It has aged like a fine wine. The best album released during the Shady/Aftermath era. The opening 5 songs on Get Rich is a highlight for me. While Eminem's first 3 albums are still very good they do sound a bit dated & haven't aged as well since some of it relied on shock value.
Jan 25, 2017 Disagree. GRODT really drops off in quality after I Can't. In fact, other than two tracks, I find the latter half of the album unlistenable. 2001, MMLP, Eminem Show and The Documentary are all better albums.
Jan 25, 2017 no. SSLP, MMLP, TES and 2001 are better than GRODT but I'd prefer listenin' to 50's albums in the car instead of Em's just because of the production. Game's Documentary and 2001, too.
Jan 25, 2017 The shady/aftermath albums I feel have aged the best (and the ones I listen to the most) are: GRODT Documentary Eminem Show 2001 The production on all 4 of those is what stands out. Strangely enough, if I had to pick another album it would be Cheers. Those beats are amazing.
Jan 25, 2017 all great, we (hip hop fans) wont ever experience again that much quality in a 3-4 years period dr dre, Eminem, 50 cent, the game. 6 classic albums in 5 years.....
Jan 25, 2017 Good call. Some of those beats blew my mind when it came out. I bumped the s--- out of s--- Hits The Fan, Lady, The Setup, and my personal favorite from that album, We All Die One Day. But yea, you're absolutely correct, that album has some bangers.
Jan 25, 2017 I agree. Now that I'm 26, Eminem's shtick is borderline cringe worthy, especially on SSLP - I literally can't even listen to a single song on it. MMLP is decent TES is still good Encore is pathetic Relapse is a joke and a waste of 18 amazing Dre beats Recovery is solid because I'm more in tune to the pop aspect of music now that I'm not a douche and hate on "mainstream" artists Listened to MMLP2 once and forgot it existed. s--- was trash lol But yeah, I constantly bump GRODT and its still amazing. The first half of the album is almost unmatched in terms of 2000's gangster rap. It kind of falls off near the tail end of the album, but it's still great all together. One of my all time favorites. I actually think that The Massacre has aged better than any Eminem album as well. If only he cut it down to like 16 tracks. Album is underrated. (Position of Power is 50's best song FTW!)
