    Eh, that's the only one I think there could be an argument for. Regardless of the accent it is a lot more cohesive. I've been as vocal an Em hater as anyone here but I do think Kamikaze is good.

    Almost everyone except the ones that hate eminem with a passion (or want to present themselves that way to stand up against 'evil stans') thinks its at least decent/okay.

    Yeah, like I've been very vocal hating him but I'll always admit when something's good I'm not a stubborn f-- - I genuinely enjoy Kamikaze. Probably more due to me being such a huge fan of him when I was young and it sharing a lot of similar elements to then with the dissing etc. Just felt more real than the manufactured s--- he's released every other time. The line on Fall or whatever about not listening to Dre and Paul definitely rings true

    Yes exactly. I mean all of the post hiatus albums had good or even brilliant moments but was filled w s---/average stuff. So I totally agree w most of the hate they get

    I don't really like Nice Guy and Normal but the rest.. especially Ringer, Fall, Lucky You, Stepping Stone, I really like most of it. So yeah I'm not gonna pretend I don't just because of the r-----ed war on this forum between people that hate him vs people that love him.

    I like the Guy song (can't remember if it's Nice or Good) that was released as a single, I just really liked the beat and the chilledness of it - one of the few times I think he's pulled off that sort of vibe - albeit he can't seem to do it without including some form of graphic murder or something ha - but yeah I'm not going to pretend I don't like s--- to keep up appearances. I think Stepping Stone is fantastic and easily one of his best post-hiatus songs and potentially one of his best in general. Apart from Normal I can listen to the album straight through (Normal isn't that bad I just prefer to skip it) and I haven't said that about an Eminem album since TES. Venom has grown on me a lot too. It feels like what Phenomenal was meant to be. I honestly feel like it's almost a fixed/remixed version of Phenomenal.

    this is not at all my experience; most rap fans (and rappers, for what that's worth) i know think the album sucks

    I think most people were taken aback by how the album sounded compared to Revival, and were quick to label it a return to form. Yeah, Eminem sounds better on the record, but when you actually listen to what he's rapping about, it's literally a grown man throwing a temper tantrum because critics said bad things about his last album....which was an objectively awful record. Also, half the time he's apologizing for Revival, and the other half he's saying we 'don't get it'. It's just a mess.

    i'd probably go with 4:44. its surprisingly a very solid album considering how old jay-z was when we he made it. then i'd pick carter 5. its not as good as carter 1 or 2, but its alright. kamikaze to me is the worst, but i do like some songs, its just not something i have any desire to return to

    I'm not sure it's even that much better than Revival, he picked some better beats but he didn't fix any of the issues with his performance or writing. Say what you want about Revival (it sucks) but at least he was rapping about stuff on that album, it has content beyond "waa critics trashed my s-----y album and I'm out of touch with music".
