    Really hard to pick, both are great albums, TES has higher highs in my opinion, but i personally enjoy MMLP more

    ROOTS:stan: In all seriousness I prefer TES. It was my first Em album. Sing For The Moment is flawless and the whole album is Em at his peak.

    It should be obvious.

    TES > MMLP

    There isn't a single skippable track on TES, MMLP has Bizarre, ruined basically the second half of the album for me. (His verse was really that bad). "f----- my cousin in his a------, slit my mothers troat? wtf?!!!?

    Nah man, I know you are a huge Bizarre fan, but he seems to always ruin potential great songs.

    TES is what actually got me into Eminem. Didn't even really like SSLP and MMLP at first, but eventually came to like them over time. Still have to vote for TES tho.

    Nice response, there is so much logic in your posts.
    You claim Bizzare's verse ruined the second half of MMLP somehow, yet you don't mind his and Obie's verses on TES :laff:

    His verse on Amityville is atrocious, I basically skip it when it comes on which ruins the 3rd verse for me. (Which is what I mean by second half)

    But when listening to Obie Trice on the Eminem show I don't have a problem at all, he has a few decent lines, but none of which were he wants to f--- his cousin in his a------, & same goes for his verse on say what you say, decent lines still listenable, no words that seem to have just been thrown in there to complete a verse, every word goes with the song

    Thank you for the proper reply.

    I completely agree on his Amityville verse it is atrocious, and in comparison his WTMS verse is much better and is about something. However I find the overall quality of the D12 member verses on WTMS makes it an average song at best IMO but that is the same for Under the Influence on MMLP.

    With Obie's Drips verse a couple of lines ruin it for me, which is a shame as I enjoy Obie more than most people do. (Both his Shady Records albums are great especially Cheers). I feel he didn't really hit his stride until his Love Me verse as I did like Rap Name either.
