    Many people consider it his 4th classic. Do you? And why? In my opinion tracks like Not Afraid could be easily better than his 00' joints single, dealing with the CONTENTS they have. But ofc mmlp and tes >>>>>> recovery and all his albums. Tell your opinions

    Again Eminem fans and the word "classic". Imo it was a good album. It's definitely not a classic.

    IMO, he doesn't have a fourth classic outside of SSLP, MMLP, and TES.

    Relapse & MMLP2 are more classic-worthy than Recovery, but none of them are in that category

    Relapse is a cult classic.

    You don’t agree that they’re both closer to a classic album (using the term very loosely here) than Recovery was?

    Deja Vu, Beautiful, Bad Guy, Evil Twin, Rap God, Groundhog Day, Baby, Brainless & probably a couple of others are on another level to most Recovery songs other than Going Through Changes

    Beautiful is not that good of a song. What's so special about it? It has weak lyricism. The only good thing about the song is the beat imo.

    including all albums’ bonus tracks, recovery is his sixth classic album.

    The lyricism isn’t bad lol

    The song has a deep meaning, got a nice sound to it & a decent hook

    Deep meaning doesn't make a song good.

    Well, I think mmlp2 >>>> Recovery, but let's be honest, Recovery has more an organic meaning throughout all the album. MMLP2 is more like a playlist if you know what i mean.
