    I think Shady XV was the best thing he's put out since Recovery and Best Friend might be his best feature since Airplanes 2. He's definitely back on track after the disappointment of MMLP2.

    It's the best thing he's done since 8 Mile.

    Eminem is still good obviously. Anyone that thinks the skill is completely gone is narrow minded.

    I think Eminem 2009-2010 (Relapse/Recovery) was the best Eminem we've seen since his hiatus, sadly.

    I liked and still like both those records, though I rarely listen to them anymore.

    I can't be the only one that cringes whenever you say anything negative about Eminem

    Why no one ever mentions the bigger amount of good punchlines when it comes to this kind of threads?

    Sometimes he's better. A lot of the time he's worse. He's inconsistent. And that's whats so disappointing. Because used to consistently be the greatest of all time.

    you're always talking and talking and talking about em yet you never make any substantial points or observations to help your case, it's always rhetoric and vitriol and backwards logic and it's not swaying anyone's opinion of the music or of you

    The one way he's improved is he's more able to make "deep"/personal tracks. He had to grow back into that after his OD'ing etc. That said, aside from GOF his best deep/personal tracks were on "Recovery" like @Arch Dogg said. Still, if you're specifically talking about "Relapse" then the introspective/deep/personal/whatever-you-wanna-call-it tracks were the one thing missing from that album (save "Beautiful" which had been mainly recorded earlier and "Deja Vu" of course). Songs like "Going Thru Changes", "SpaceBound", even "Seduction" or "You're Never Over" are >>>> Relapse IMO #InOtherUselessNews

    Shady XV is a hit and miss for me, if there was more songs like Fine Line it would be much better.

    I think every song Eminem was involved in was good, the other artists.. not so much. Just imagine if Best Friend was on Shady XV instead of Down. Would've improved the entire project significantly. Till It's Gone should've been on there too considering it came out in September.

    i'm just not a fan of the choppy flows at times, and yea Best Friend is his best feature as of lately.
