Let's be honest, if Recovery came instead of Relapse....

[da r star]

Everybody would've complained. I remember before Relapse, people were hoping that he goes back to his Shady persona more hardcore shit. He does so, then everybody is like "Oh we need the serious Eminem back". Which one is it people?

I can't wait what people will want from him for his next album.

[Drucifer]

Very true........although I think the major complaint about Relapse was the Accent more then the content

[Kez]

No.

Just no.

It couldn't have come instead of Relapse, because a big part of it was inspired by Relapse.

For his next album, I want it like Encore.

[AnalKiddo]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo....

Recovery is literally on a whole new level... a MUCH higher level.. but since relapse was an "ehhhhh" album it made recovery sound that much better

Recover is Encore, the real version lol

Right.

while some people did want Shady back.. I think the majority of Eminem fans always wanted another Eminem Show.. Recovery is great to me because he has such a mixture of all of his personas in it.. He's got some shady type songs.. some serious, angry Eminem tracks, and the emotional Marshall songs... Thats just the way I see it.. A well balanced album with all kinds of tracks that will satisify most of his fans.

Imagine if he went from Encore to Recovery
