    Just pay attention to metrical patterns, how he rhymes every fckin words! Starting with Bad Guy (way better than stan), it's a masterpiece. Every songs are dope, never seen things like this, except with The Eminem show, exactly.

    I'd let So Much Better, i love it hahah. Anyway, the deluxe version is perfect, it adds value to the album, that's why i say mmlp2 is his best after Tes.

    I'm sorry man but when I used to listen to eminem, I could care less how he rhymes every f---ing word. If the song itself is s---, I'll tell you about it. Also, take a look at the SSEP if you wanna see how technical he could get without cramming 1000000 syllables in one line.

    Alright. But this is Eminem's specialty. He doesn't only do metrical stuff, he even adds awesome lyrics!

    I doubt Eminem does same stuff, he's growing, he's evolving more and more.

    Yeah i really liked the fact that it was a step in a different direction (a serious, mature look at his drug addiction & recovery) & not a recycle of old slim shady stuff.

    I said it before. All Eminem works (criticized or been loved so much) are masterpieces.

    why ? because he doesn't do it for the money.
    He won't release something unless it is perfect. Maybe not always flow-wise, but lyrically and artistically it is perfect.

    I love SSLP, MMLP, TES, Encore, Relapse, Recovery, MMLP2, ShadyXV, Southpaw and The Re-up equally.

    If you don't appreciate Eminem new stuff then you don't know anything about the good Rap. and you better buy Drake, Lil Wayne and Kanye albums.

    In my opinion, Eminem was most hungry in 2 albums: SSLP, and Recovery.

    SSLP because obviously he was new to the game. Recovery, because he felt like he fell down so hard and relapse wasn't accepted as he expected. He felt like he lost it and wanted to come back so hard.

    You can hear the passion in his voice. I love most of the album (except Won't Back Down and another song)

    I think, without recovery Eminem will be considered as a fell off rapper, pretty much like: 50 cent, DMX, and JaRule.

    Who ever don't think Recovery is great album and helped Eminem staying in the front is either ignorant or taking Vicodin.
