Eminem album with best hooks and the album with worst hooks?

[RainMan44]

I say the Eminem album with best hooks is a toss up between 'The Slim Shady LP' and 'Relapse.'

The SSLP had LYRICAL/multi-syllable choruses like the ones on Rock Bottom, Still Don't Give A Fuck, Brain Damage, Bad Meets Evil, and it seems like it went downhill (hook-wise) during the MMLP and TES and Encore. It's like it became more of a catchy hook instead of a lyrical one, and it was more focused on a couple of things, instead of a 4 or 8 line multi-syllabic hook.

But, in 'Relapse' I think he got back to making lyrical hooks (Insane, Stay Wide Awake, Underground, Deja Vu, Same Song & Dance). But at the end of the day if I had to choose ONE, I'd go with the SSLP.

So what do you guys think? And remember, I'm not saying just because a chorus has multi's it means it is a better hook. Just asking which album(s) of his, do you think, have the most lyrical hooks?


Which one has the worst?

Hmmmm, nice topic
I'd definately go with TES.

I think maybe MMLP or TES for best hooks.

Recovery hooks don't feel "Eminemish" to me, so they're the worst.

I agree, 'Recovery" beats are a major
Singing (badly), using that weird high pitched/low pitched singing and stacking them, using singers THAT DON'T EVEN HAVE FUCKING NAMES ON THE TRACKLIST LMAOO...what was up with that? It was like those beats you purchase on the internet with already made hooks.

MMLP for best hooks. They may not be as lyrical as SSLP or Relapse, but they are damn sure catchy while being well written.

Worst was Recovery or Encore. Leaning more towards Recovery.

I agree with 'em being catchy and well written at the same time.

Best is either SSLP or MMLP, can't choose between em. (Kim hook )
Worst is Recovery by a long shot. 25 to life, going through changes, spacebound, LTYL, wont back down, you're never over all had some of the worst hooks Eminems ever used and I don't even hate any of those songs besides spacebound & LTYL.
