So Ems Recovery is soon in top 30?
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?
I can't rap anymore, I just murdered the alphabet.

The Eminem Show must be pretty close to overtaking MC Hammer seeing as it is now at 9.99m.

Out of all these albums i only like a handfull, Beastie Boys - Licensed to Ill being one of my favorites.
