    No. There was no rhyme or reason to making the album s-----y, except perhaps because he was sick of expectations. He was also too high to realize it wasn't really funny.

    intentionally, wanted to show he's a bit off balance. Plus it fits well between the lights. Have you given this a listen? Very interested in your opinion

    It does though. A big theme on MMLP was his response to critics, and "Stan" was a tale on how you shouldn't take his crude lyrics so seriously.

    So how does Like toy soldiers not fit? Especially since it is a follow up to the eminem show it makes perfect sense to keep that track considering all the beefs he was in during that era.

    Never heard that I'm Gone song before but it literally sounds like a loosie diss track. It's not an album track imo.

    Also Encore not being centred on the cover is really bothering me. I know what you're doing with the lights but yeh

    Because OP is just being different for the sake of being different

    Track is good and fits the album

    How does it not yet a little interlude track w/ Eminem talking about JFK and fbi tapping his phone fits

    And I'm not even gonna listen to that Obie track because Obie is the drizzling s----s but I doubt it fits either

    props on evil deeds
    always thought this track was very dope if it wasn't for the corny repetitions
    a few adjustments and it will be perfect

    It's not a loosie diss track it was cut off the album and given to Kay Slay and it's same format as Never Enough (one verse, one hook, one verse)
    If you notice I pay a good deal of attention to sequencing, tell me a good place Like Toy Soldiers will fit in transition? It's beat is the least Encore styled instrumental from the album, as well.

    I like Puke, just didn't think it nor Crazy in Love really fit here. Puke is the antithesis of Love You More, so it didn't fit and Crazy in Love lost out to Love You More because I didn't want to include more than one love song.

    Public Enemy #1 fits because it follows the them from mosh to itself of Eminem's political protest getting him into trouble. also the phone ringing works great immediately after the paul skit. And it's an encore cut anyways.

    I'm Gone is great, your missing out.
    no problem
    I need to splice in the instrumental to make the second and third verse sound right and fix the timing of a few of the first verse cuts but yeah it sounds much better without all the repetition and the predominately's
