I'm Having a Relapse - the track

[FreeSpeech]

I can't remember, but did he just drop it out of no where? It wasn't a single, not a freestyle, not on iTunes, no chorus...just a long, dope verse. It basically announced the Relapse era with serial killer stuff and accents. When/how did this drop??? Shade45? I remember hearing it and being excited for Relapse, I just don't remember the details.

This. And I still love it. I deleted most of my random Eminem odds and ends (and even some album tracks -- skits and most of Encore) from my computer recently, but I still bump "I'm Having a Relapse".

He premiered it himself at the release party for The Way I Am book, in Oct 2008.

I have a kind of nice nostalgia attached to that track, I can remember sitting in a nearby University library of which my friend was a member, I just used to live with him - no qualifications and I didn't go to University, I just used other student's ID numbers and would sit in there using the net all day lmao.

And I remember having that shit on repeat all he time.

ah, this track. gather round the campfire.
i remember i didnt even know about this song. i was on probation from like 05 - 08, and i ran into one of my friends from high school that used to get me some funky nugs so i asked him to get me some. and... like the day i went to his house to grab it... it was just a quarter and his whole house smelled like potent weed and none had even been smoked yet... this was like the day after i got off probation. and i was so happy to get that bomb ass shit for my first shit to hit in 3 fuckin years. so we smoke a bowl and im ripped and hes like oh shit dude you heard eminem is rappin again? i was like WHAAAAAAAAAt????? he played that song and i was like a fuckin kindergardner on a swing.

good times.

I remember when almost everyone was bashing this song just because of the accent and all the raping references that he made, i guess everything has turned.... good because i liked this song from the beginning.

It's amazing how so many people like his songs with the accent now that he's shouting a lot on his new material.

None the less, I've always been a big fan of this track and of the majority of the relapse + refill material that followed. I still stand by my original statements that it's some of his best lyrical work to date.

Nah, a lot of the people who didn't like Relapse still don't like Relapse that much

The people who have always liked Relapse still like it
AND a lot of them still like Recovery too, like myself

[VenomBlackViper]

I remember people thought he was dissing The Game on this track when he name dropped Jason & mentioned a coma.

[ShaBruv]

Daaaaayum those were the days, i remember getting told about this at school and thinking it was a single and it was gonna be like Just Lose It, (which i liked im ashamed to say) then heard it and was amazed and i had it on replay for ages,
