    I don't understand the question. His legacy is SSLP, MMLP, and TES, which have cemented his status as the best rapper of all time, since it's safe to say no one in the genre has ever topped them. Everything after that is immaterial. Career filler. He could put out 100 more verses like Parables without taking anything away from his legacy. So there's no need to restore anything.

    See this is what I don’t understand. Biggie gets put in the goat conversations with just 2 albums. (Obviously he died). But then you have people say “Eminem put out trash like revival “ . Shouldn’t the conversations be about the best body of work ? Any artist that puts out a solid amount of albums will have duds .

    and mmlp and TES show were/are praised at the top of the rap albums In the genre. Comparing what he did in his prime to what he’s doing over 2 decades into his career is just ignorant. For as long as Eminem has been in the game and his age, putting out a album as good as side a/b is honestly unheard of.

    I get the overall point but it has been done, most notably with Jay Z and Nas.
