    Wasn't "We Made You" a fairly late Relapse track? I seem to recall Eminem confirming that (as with most ot the singles)

    Yes. Well, three and a half years.One of the first songs Eminem decided he wanted on the album and led to him making 3am. Ended up being cut from the album and made a bonus track because of how old it was.

    Second to last track he recorded. Technically last, but Crack a Bottle was also on relapse because it leaked. It was originally a Detox song.

    My Darling is 100% NOT from 2005 seeing as Eminem mentions Proof's death on the song. It's clearly older than most of Relapse though.

    indeed, it is an encore-esque kinda song. His voice is not in line with the shouting and stuff from the rest of the album

    Kind of crazy when you think about it.

    Eminem has to have one of the most loyal fan bases out there.

    There is no denying Eminem's best years were between 1999 to about 2002/2003. After that it has been a constant decline with ups and downs. Encore was bad but it still had a few glimpses of greatness.

    He's had some gems here and there since then but nothing consistent or close to what he was dropping in the early 2000s.

    For me Recovery and some of the stuff he did around that time, collabs with Wayne, Drake in 2009 have been solid. Although not to the level of what he did in his prime, it was good.

    Anything after that. From MMLP2 to Kamikaze has been garbage to me. Can't stand his tone, his flow etc.. There is literally nothing, not even one song that he's made since the Recovery era that I have relistened to.

    It's fair to say at this point that he is done and that he has been for a pretty long time. It's been a good ride though.

    It is from 2005. He’s talking about being distanced from Proof and Kim at the time because of the drug use. I have it on wax from a pretty close source to Eminem. My article will be coming out in a couple months, you can read it then.

    In general I agree but I think he did more decent - good since recovery than people give him credit for on here.

    He changed his style tho so its not weird that some people don't like it at all

    good that I ignored this guy what a bs post. Sorry but just because you don't like an artist it doesn't make that artist any bad at all. I think Eminem dropped many great songs in 15 years, so does many people who actually listens to Em. It's like me going thru all the trouble to say Kanye didn't drop anything great since MBDTF on a Kanye SXN and it's even more stupid when you consider Eminem has a lot more popularity, more likes and fans... I barely liked handful of Kanye songs after MBDTF but that doesn't make saying Kanye didn't drop smh great since MBDTF sound any reasonable. The best song on world has some haters, just because 1 person outta 1000 say smh sucks doesn't make it a fact or anything. So again what a bs post :D
