This is crazy to me. Maybe I'm just too old hahahahaha
But it's insane to me that there's younger kids out there that were just getting into Em around Relapse or Recovery. It's crazy to me. I'm getting old.....lol
Lol yeah everyone has a different story tbh. There's probably some people out there who've only gotten into Em around MMLP 2. I know it sounds crazy but there's probably some people out there...
For sure man. I just remember flipping on MTV in 99 when I was like 15 and hearing My Name Is, then seeing his interviews as his name was first getting known big time. He was getting known, but little did anyone know it was just the beginning. Then came MMLP which fucking took the world by storm. I don't think I'll ever see another thing like it. It was a different time, and it was like the perfect storm for Em.
I don't think we'll ever see another emcee enter the game with three albums straight off like SSLP/MMLP/TES. It was PERFECTION homie. I'm being a stan right now, but for real.
In terms of how I place his albums.....
Marshall Mathers LP - 10/10
Eminem Show - 10/10
Slim Shady LP - 10/10
Marshall Mathers LP 2 - 8/10.......could have been higher if not for a few mistakes on final tracklist
Recovery - 7.5/10.........could have been higher if not the blatant production issues, half the songs were weak production wise
Relapse - 7/10.............could have been higher if not for a couple terrible songs and over doing the accents IMO
Encore - 6/10.......could have been higher if not for 4 terrible songs
JUST MY OPINION. PLEASE DONT KILL ME ON HERE FOR NOT ADORING RELAPSE THE WAY 95% OF YOU GUYS ON HERE DO.
