Nov 23, 2017 Every single one of his albums is overrated. He's honestly never released a classic album. Not even close
Nov 23, 2017 I personally think that Eminem as an artist can be overrated but I don’t believe that his albums are SSLP - TES were highly rated for good reasons Encore was mainly badly rated for good reasons Relapse was quite divided for good reasons Recovery was well received in the mainstream so from a hip hop perspective maybe it is for that reason alone MMLP2 was also split for good reasons
Nov 23, 2017 MMLP. It's widely regarded as his best album but, aside from "Stan," the whole vibe is anger. It's still a classic, but TES shows us more sides of Marshall as well as growth and maturity (which began regressing with Encore).

Nov 23, 2017 It's laughable for any1 to defend Relapse. n----s really used the argument "Well he did say the song was going to be about him getting r---d by his dad". As if that makes it any better. U n----s are the worst stans
Nov 23, 2017 In terms of rap classics, I always felt MMLP was a classic because he blended slick, technical, and catchy lyrics/flow with pop culture and had so much f---ing anger. And it shifted the entire hip hop culture where he pretty much dominated until his hiatus. This dominance is why Benzino used the source magazine (which was the Bible of rap until this point) to attack eminem. MMLP was the catalyst to this dominance. But that's the only album I'd say is a classic in terms of the entire genre. TES didn't impact the genre as much as MMLP did. So that's why I think it's a classic.
Nov 24, 2017 True but the entire album just gets old real quick. My Name Is, My Fault, Still Don't Give A f---, Bad Meets Evil and a handful more tracks is fun at first but then you grow out of it after a couple of listens. 97 Bonnie and Clyde land Guilty Conscience are the only tracks that I still bump to this day but other than that sslp just isn't that memorable
Nov 24, 2017 Agree with you, I was listening to SSLP earlier today & I couldn't listen to one track I had to skip and skip until I found a good track to enjoy, got boring real quick & just switch the cd.
Nov 24, 2017 Yea man like the LP is good but it just doesn't hold compared to MMLP or EMS cus at least those albums had a theme from song to song. SS was just all over the place but still good tho
