    It seems the album has a broad cult following and fans have come 2 appreciate this album long after release, for me it is his second best album and has the best production of his entire career. The story telling is vivvid the flows are superb and the deliveries are unique and risk taking in all the best ways. Including the Refill tracks there is only 1 track that I dislike.

    How do you view this project?

    is We Made You the song that you dislike? cause I think it's the one for me

    Relapse is fantastic, plus out of all his albums it had the best promotion, maybe not really effective (lol) but definitely interesting for fans

    I've loved this album ever since the release. I didn't listen to much rap until this album came out but to answer your Question yes this is a cult classic. People seem to either love it or hate it

    This turned Slim Shady into a cartoon and it's sort of anorexic in that it's trying to recapture the past but you know what? It has the best production of any Eminem record plus it's the only time we'll see a full length Eminem/Dre collaboration.

    Plus some of the lyrics are good so there's that.

    For other songs by Em, sure but idk man Relapse is just wonderful 2 me. It's sadistic in a cartoony way and it's just so enjoyable. It doesn't try 2 be disturbing it's just a fun peak into the fantasies of a serial killer fanboy/copy cat with a multi personality disorder. Not only is the music dope but certain songs like Deja Vu and Same Song And Dance are just so interesting and thought provoking 2 me.

    Hands down, the album I play the MOST out of every Em (and other album for that matter).

    It never gets old, the concept is great, cover-to-cover story is incredible and all-round just a kick a--- album!

    Wish we got another one!!!

    Slim Shady LP was the cartoonish Slim Shady. That's what Slim Shady is supposed to be.
