This might be a terrible idea, but I wanted to throw it out there for y'all. Since there are so many people here who don't think Em's new material is on par with any of his older material, and since there are so many "recovery stans" here as well, who might not even know his older stuff/just think the stuff they heard first is better than his older stuff (hmm that sounds familiar), I'm proposing a list that MIGHT bring everyone on to the same page.
Here it is: By taking your 3 favorite songs off of each album (SSLP, MMLP, TES, Encore, Relapse, Recovery, MMLP2...bonus cd's/songs counting as well) and comparing those 3 songs to rest of the albums top 3 songs, where do the albums rank then? I bring this up because 1. my list of "albums" changes when just looking at the highlights from each 2. I believe his newer stuff can be/is just as good as his older material (but like eminembase and numerous others have said, he hasn't brought it for an entire album yet) 3. to get "recovery stans" to realize how great his older material is. So, without further ado, here we go
1. MMLP
Who Knew
The Way I Am
Stan
2. TES
TIC
SFTM
White America
3. Relapse
SWA
SSAD
Music Box
4. MMLP2
Brainless
Legacy
Baby
5. Recovery
Seduction
25 to Life
GTC
6. Encore
We As Americans
Never Enough
Like Toy Soldiers
7. SSLP
SDGAF
Rock Bottom
Brain Damage
