Blame yourself for purchasing trash albums.

I never understand when ppl do want to compare an album to other artist's albums they do it with the trash ones. The mainstream/veteran rappers aren'tthe only ones dropping albums and more times than not the mainstream album is hollow, pop watered down shh and the vets' albums are them attempting to bemainstream on top of them falling off anyway.

So yea Relapse is probably up there when compared to other albums released but that's not saying much given what you compare it to and when it comes downto it compared to Em's catalog Relapse is nowhere near his best work.

um i think dude said all those albums were better than relapse ... lol ... either way, hes an idiot so WIN!

Well obviously you dont have to, but I dont see how you can ignore the similarities between the two albums. This is basically the same album, except that he is a better MC because he has mastered his craft since then.

I agree. It is the same thing, but on juice when it comes to production and lyrics. I knew I would catch flack for that, but the album got sohyped to me before I heard it that I expected so much more....Kinda like people in here that held out for Relapse...But you can't deny Relapse.

Yeah Stay Wide Awake is probably my favorite.....I think it definitely has the best beat on the album

 

[gone in 60 seconds]

"Stay Wide Awake" bangs hard as hell & that's coming from someone that hates the album as a whole

 

[crazy ebw]

The haters.

1. Vinnie Paz
2. Esoteric
3. Apathy
4. R.A The Rugged Man
5. Brother Ali
6. Virtuoso
7. Sabac Red
8. Goretex
9. Sage Francis
10. El-P
11. Necro/Goretex

You can make the argument "influence wise" that Em is better... too bad almost all his influence was negative and he helped kill rap. Skill-wise andjust judging on who the better rappers are... all of the above are much better. Eminem couldn't hold a candle to some of these dudes.

If you don't like Em... stay out of the thread... enough already

I can honestly say that I've never seen or heard of any of those names before. Not only in Hip-Hop, but in life in general.

 

[vabigpoppa]

hmm, so there are a few songs that i like......its100X better than Encore, but no where near SSLP, MMLP, or Eminem Show though.

 

[harlemtothebronx]

@That white rapper list...and I have heard most of them.

You're entitled to your opinion, but wow.

 

[swizzc]

I'd rate this album on the same level as SSLP. Not as good as Em Show or MMLP though.

Just realized there isn't one Kim reference on the entire album.

On their behalf let me apologize for them not making radio friendly teeny bopper trash that most Em fans seem to thirst for.
