    Revival a 3/10

    facts;
    -more consistently s-----y than encore
    -relapse at least has some type of theme or direction
    -revival is str8 poopoo


    I mean all r s--- at this point so it's splitting hairs but let's go rev 3/10, encore 4/10 relapse 5/10

    Revival has higher highs and I wouldnt even say lower lows than Encore

    Encore is worse

    Yes. Even if it has a few gems for me the others have 'more' songs I would revisit

    I think I still prefer it over Encore as the highs—Believe, Castle, Arose—are higher than those of Encore, and the lows aren’t as bad as My First Single, Big Weenie etc

    Although i can’t really get any replay value out of it. I stopped listening to it by the end of 2017, bar a few songs

    MMLP2 was a MUCH better project imo, and despite its lack of cohesiveness (maybe due to it) it gets overlooked as a solid body of work

    My ranking would have to be:
    TES
    MMLP
    SSLP
    MMLP2
    Relapse
    Recovery
    Revival
    Encore

    Pretty good list. I thought MMLP2 was pretty solid too. I personally really liked Recovery. It was his closest thing to TES if you ask me. He was very confident at the time and he actually rode the beats like he knows how. He didn't shout too much and didn't rappity rap too much either.

    No need for debate, it's obviously his worst album.

    Disagree about Relapse though obviously.

    @RG9 honestly,

    I rather listen to the s--- songs from encore than need me, offended, remind me

    Of cours neither is the best option

    Revival had 5 good songs and out of the 5 it has 2 CLASSIC tracks.


    It’ll go down as that album that has two of his greatest return songs on it. (Castle and Arose top 15 em oat)

    Both albums are majority s--- songs so lower lows doesn't matter looool

    Encore actually has more moderately listenable tracks this is not debateable

    Encore is better

    I dunno man like My First Single is literally a bunch of s--- whereas at least on Offended there some decent rapping going on. Same with Big Weenie (sounds stupid even saying the name), I’d much rather listen to Em having fun over a rock beat on Remind Me (I don’t mind the rock vibe which a lot of people hate)

    But yeah as you said it’s not ideal lol
