Ranking Marshall: Stage 2 - Poll 1

[mrjizzbomber]

Hey guys,

So here is the first of the 2nd round polls. The first poll matches all the fan-voted best tracks from each of Eminem's major studio albums (singles weren't included).

I would recommend listening to the six tracks before deciding. I know you are all very familiar with them, but it would seem reasonable to give them a listen before making a choice.

I will not suggest any ranking criteria, although I have 5 categories of my own that I think is very important to a good hip-hop/rap track. What I'll do is listen to each song, rank it 1 to 5 on each criteria, then pick the song that comes up the best. I'll post that when I actually do it!

Feel free to rank them however you see fit - discuss and defend your selections, post your ranking criteria and what score you gave each track!

Good Luck!

Criminal for fuck's sake, it's an almost PERFECT song and one of those that I associate the most with eminem's greatness.
the concept, the hilariously over-the-top and incredibly clever lyrics, everything, even the crime scene interlude, it all fits perfectly, VOTE CRIMINAL GODDAMNIT

Rock Bottom, because that's where he was at when he wrote it. He speaks so much truth, and the emotion in his voice is so genuine. Mad multis all through as well, in true SSLP fashion.

I'd be extremely surprised if Rock Bottom didn't win. By a lot.

Till I Collapse

[GenePeer]

Till I Collapse, Eminem turned the simplest (and very generic) beats ever into an epic song but i went for Almost Famous, he just rides the hell out of those beats
