Relapse: Am i the only one?

[evol3m]

When relapse came out it took me a couple hours to get used to the "accent". Then you start to understand how it's all part of the theme. I keep hearing people talk shit about relapse but all i see is that the "accent" doesn't appeal to mainstream "radio". Because other than that, it's a lyrical masterpiece, and the accent even allowed him to rhyme words that usually don't rhyme. not to mention that he states on the album that proof likes it when he goes all out crazy like that. So why so much hate? I enjoyed relapse very much, supported it all the way, but i feel as if em just "shit on me" when he disses his own album in Recovery. I haven't seen much discussion about this, am i the only one that believes relapse was great, and em shouldn't have doubted his work?

He shouldn't give a damn though.

Relapse is very split on here.

Personally, I love it. Em bashing it was him being influenced by fans I reckon.

Relapse is a masterpiece to me, similar to Silence of Lambs, fictional, not very personal to anything, but well done and creative.

Eminem bashes it in his songs but when he talks about relapse in interviews he says he wasn't thinking of what people wanted from him and that people were very confused with that as a comeback, not that it's a horrible album.

same here (essentially), and as you can see, we're not alone

we should start a lobby group

I really like about half of Relapse the other half is just ehh

[ChronicJon]

I like Relapse but I think Recovery is a LOT better. Then again I think Recovery is better than TE S and MMLP

Relapse is dope man. Its kind of an underground feel. The accent makes the album better actually.

[EminemBase]

Relapse is awesome.

Last year i hated Relapse. But now and with the refill included, its incredible. I am used to the accent it does not bother me and really it is a masterpiece to me. Over the past week i think i listened to relapse more than Recovery. But Recovery as an overall album is better for me. More consistent.

I think for future albums em should go into a more story telling role, with each song on the album a sort of continuation from the previous track. But not directly. If i am making sense

[slimsoxshady]

Relapse is OK...I'm glad he put it out thought cuz I did enjoy it for a few months

[paperboyslim]

He is wrong to dismiss the cd,plenty of people liked it and lyrically it could be his best album

[buffalo bill]

we should start a petition for eminem to withdraw his false statements

actually that would be kind of cool
