    I remember back in SL people loved this album, some even called it a classic. About a week after it came out and ever since, a vast majority hate it. Some even call it his worst album. I just don't understand. Is it the title that caused you to compare it to the original and be underwhelmed? Is it the subjective replay value? The chicks on the hooks? The bad lines like Eminem atcheaving? I think it's his best post hiatus project. Lyrically, it might be one of his best oat imo.

    Of course it has flaws but they don't completely ruin the project for me. I felt like it was a good project that revisited his past whilist evaluating his career and looking forward to the future at the same time.

    I just feel like I'm only one of the few in here who thinks so

    If he changed songs like; Survival, So Much Better (although I like it), STIW and had BETTER beats for songs like; a------, So Far.., Love Game, Berzerk, Wicked Ways, Desperation and non generic youtube hooks for songs like a------ and legacy it would be a classic album in my opinion

    edit: he also sounds bored af on songs like Beautiful Pain

    Plus the bonus tracks are better than some of the standard edition ones. As a whole, the deluxe edition plus don't front is just so solid

    The MMLP 2 had a lot to live up to, Chad Daddy just couldn't bump it after a third listen. Didn't have the longevity.

    i dunno, i liked it when it came out, thought it was alright and that a handful of songs were just f---ing annoying. But I haven't had a reason to go back and listen to it, just feels like "yeah i've heard it, i'm done". Honestly don't see myself listening to it/any song off it for a while

    I loved it. Songs like Don't Front, Groundhog Day, Evil Twin, Bad Guy, Legacy, Berzerk, Rhyme or Reason, and a couple others too. Just had a couple not-so-good ones either which held it down.

    For me, this would be his second best album. It has a lot of mediocre tracks, but at the same time there's a lot of great tracks like Rap God, Bad Guy, Baby, and Don't Front. Songs like Bezerk and Survival are also really fun tracks, too.
