Was the Relapse album the best of all the relapse songs?

Postby S.T.A.N. » Jan 30th, '12, 13:14

He said he had material to do 3 relapse albums, but he would narrow it down to 2. So he put out Relapse 1, and realised that maybe he couldn't finish crafting Relapse 2 because it didn't sound complete or album worthy so he ditched the whole idea. Do you think so or otherwise?

No, I personally consider Things Get Worse better than most of the songs on Relapse...but that's just my opinion.

I prefer "Music Box","Buffalo Bill" & "Elevator" from Refill to songs from Relapse such as "Must Be The Ganja", "Medicine Ball" & "Bagpipes From Baghdad" The Refill songs were suppose to be on Relapse 2 wern't they?

No, they he gave them to us so we could have something till Relapse 2 dropped. Like he said, he had songs for 3 albums.
50 also said that Relapse was dope, but he liked Relapse 2 more.
I wanted an album so rugged nobody could touch it.
Spent a million a track and went over my budget.
Now how in the fuck am I supposed to get out of debt?

Im Having a Relapse could of been the greatest song EVER if it was put on the album. That song is mind blowing; if he made a Relapse 2 with Oh No, Things Get Worse, and I'm Having a Relapse - that would be an amazing album right there :laughing: :laughing:

I feel like Relapse 2 would have been a classic...we were truly robbed of what could have been an excellent display of art and skill. Things Get Worse was only the tip of the iceberg, I bet.

"I'm Having A Relapse" came out way before Relapse though, it would have been so random on R2. However, I was listening to the song yesterday and...holy fuck, it's still amazing. I remember when I first heard it, I listened to it...at least 400 times within the first few days. It was just SO fuckin good to me and it was new Em.

I miss those days.


I know, but it honestly doesn't sound like it, and the Basement Freestyle on the album..

No, think about it - why would he save WORSER material, for the SEQUEL.

'save the best till last'.

He wouldn't put out a weaker album second. He intended on putting two albums out and had whittled down the material. So he wouldn't get all the strongest stuff for the first, then put out lesser material second, that makes absolutely no sense at all.

The first is meant to build anticipation, for the better, second. Especially when a sequel is already in mind. No director sets out to make a weaker sequel than the original. Clearly, Relapse 2 would have been better, and the Refill tracks show that.

Even right from the beginning, 50 Cent said the first is a 'treat' but the second is 'exciting'. Which also shows Em pretty much had the second ready to go too.

Plus, Em said Relapse / the material is almost ordered like he'd want you to hear it... according to, what he did first. As he said "My Mom" was one of the first tracks he did and "Stay Wide Awake" was one of the later ones, and that you can notice the improvement.

So Relapse 2 would have probably been the last / latest aka best tracks he probably did.

I think he probably trashed a classic. I'm so annoyed I didn't get to hear it, ffs.
