    You can prefer MMLP over TES no problem, but you cant argue that Eminems hardest song ever isnt on TES.

    I agree, SSLP was put together really well. It's one of those albums that's solid both narratively and musically. I also really dig the way it sounds, a lot of those beats are so unique. It's hard to describe but I remember when I first heard it it sounded like an entirely different world.

    MMLP is probably always gonna be my favorite. It's got so many classic tracks on it, great features, well-produced. To me it's the perfect blend of the raw s--- he was doing initially and something more "mature" or polished.

    I was never as into TES. It's a great record but I agree the raw edge is kind of missing. After that record I don't think he ever really got it back.

    Imo his best album is either SSLP or MMLP and TES isn’t really in the conversation for me.

    I think Slim Shady LP was just the perfect storm of these zany cartoon stories, emotional personal narratives, comedy, fitting/good production, and technical skill. I wouldn’t cut any songs from it.

    MMLP you could shave off a couple songs and has also aged a little worse than SSLP imo because of so many dated references.

    TES has too much filler for me and also comes across as dated/melodramatic despite having some of his greatest songs of all time (say goodbye Hollywood, till I collapse, etc) and like I said in another thread I’m not as into the stadium rock anthem stuff. I think this was when he started to lose a little of his spark that gave his work from slim shady EP thru devil’s night it’s edge.

    Mmlp made a bigger impact on hip hop / pop culture but I prefer the refined Eminem on his own production on TES.

    I hardly ever revisit mmlp but often queue a few songs from TES.
