I'ma say it's a tie because both are different styles.

Melatonin was hot shit, I know. Full of dope lyrics. But what's lacking are choruses. LOL.

Relapse is full of shit I can relate to. And I like the voice here better than Canibus'.

TIE! :worship:

I voted tie because each album is better or worse in certain aspects. Example, I think Relapse is better lyrically, but MM has a lot better concepts. I think beats are better on Relapse, but MM beats are good too. Something bis albums have needed badly!

It depends on what suits your ear though, no right or wrong answers.

Melatonin Magik for sure

Relapse was the wackest shit i've heard from Em since Encore

Bis is lyrically flawless on MM and the beats are dope as hell. proves bis has better longevity than em, i doubt he'll ever fall off as hard as em did on relapse wit that annoying jamaican accent lol

That would make sense considering it's his first album since Encore...

To the OP, I couldnt vote as I haven't heard enough of MM to make a judgement.

I do need to check Bis out. I can never get myself into him cus of his voice. Which is stupid, but I just can't. I'm gunna listen to those tracks and hopefully I'll have changed my tune. Cus from the reviews I hear of him, he must be pretty good.

I agree with you I can't stand his voice for some reason...I'll try to give MM a couple of listens before I vote.

after listening to MM all night and giving it some thought I've come to this conclusion:

Relapse soothes the ears (on point flows, nicely composed beats)
MM feeds the mind (better song concepts and subject matter)

Both great lyrically but i would say Relapse better lyrically. So I would stick with them being a tie.

idk man if it's better I'd say it'd be because a lot of things but not lyrically


I'm thinking lyrically on strictly rhymes and multis. I think Relapse is basically all about those. MM has better metaphors and lyrical creativeness. Just my opinion of course, my word aint set in stone. In which aspects would you say it would be better?

I still need to listen to MM, downloaded it yesterday. I'll give my opinion after a couple of listens.
