    Em dont hate Relapse... he actually liked it enough to almost drop the second album...altough he released refill too...

    He kinda praised it on BME which was After Recovery...

    "Turn the radio up louder, make it thump
    While I bump that Relapse CD, tryna hit every bump in that c----
    Thought I snap back in that accent cause she kept asking me
    To quit callin' her c----, I said I c----"

    "You fat dyke, I'm tryna hear some Bagpipes from Baghdad
    Don't act like you don't like 'em, them accents, I rap tight"

    And on My Life some year later....

    "This is like a vicious cycle, my life's in a crisis
    Christ, how was I supposed to know s--- would turn up like it did?
    Feels like I'm going psycho again
    And I might just blow my lid
    s---, I almost wish that I would have never made Recovery, kid
    'Cause I'm running in circles with"

    Spatula Relapse is a masterpiece

    Eminem should have responded to reaction for relapse the way he did for revival. Blame everyone for being too stupid to get it and stick to his guns. Relapse deserved fighting for and if he stood his ground on it he would have shown artistic merit. "f--- you, this is my vision and what I want to do". Revival deserved the backlash.

    People hated because of the accent l. But to me the accent was one of the most genius things I’ve seen in music.

    This dude created his own accent to make words rhyme that didn’t f---ing rhyme. Who the f--- sits there and thinks of doing s--- like that lol.

    Arose is annoying to me!!!! Tragic Endings is the best song on Revival. In your head is pretty good, Framed is dope, Castle is good, believe is fire. !! Only good songs from the album.

    Fair enough. I think in ur head was meh because of the flow , also didn't really like the sample (I know). Others I can kinda agree w but the way WOW turned into Believe and the last verse >

    I honestly think BH doesn't deserve to be on the same list as heat and remind me. I am not a huge fan of it but at least it had personal content that was pretty decent. Tragic endings should have been on recovery btw.

    Heat and remind me are f---ing awful same as that fast rapping song

    I heard The Real Slim Shady From 99 is coming back from the cage Paul locked him up in (Not the clone) and he’s gonna put a new album out. Also the Clone The Eminem Show Em has something cooking up. Encore Em is back too. Relapse clone said he wants Relapse 2 out.

    I only became a fan in the Recovery aftermath, late 2010-2011 times, so I missed the hiatus between Encore and Relapse. What did it feel like? Knowing about Proof's death and Em's overdose now, we consider it a time that he almost died, and was very close to never making music again. But for fans at that time, what was it like? Did it feel to you like he might never make music again? There was supposed to be King Mathers of course, but was that talked about like it would be his last album? Or was everyone largely in the dark about what was going on and just assumed it was a strangely long hiatus between albums for some reason, like maybe he was working with the Shady 1.0 artists as a change of pace for a while?

    In short, did it feel relatively normal for fans or was everyone aware that extraordinary and troubling things were going on behind the scenes, and that Em was dealing with it all very badly?

    I was a huge fan in 2002. My father was playing My Name Is and some other popular songs of Eminem. In 2002, for the first time my father bought an Eminem album which was the Eminem show. I was constantly playing that album and after that I watched every music by Em closely. But still I was like 13 or 14 at the time proof died so, I wasn't really having a hard time with everything going on with Em. I started to forget about him after Encore slowly. With relapse I kinda remembered Eminem again and became a fan again. It wasn't really easy to follow the artists you like back then. In between MMLP2 and Revival, it was a lot harder for me. Because I was definitely a bigger fan and it was a lot more easy to follow the artists you like so, it was harder.

    It was terrible. Everyday u were hoping for an album but never got one. Nothing excited happened and life was boring.
