I like Relapse but I have a beef with

My Mom
Hello
We Made You
Old Times Sake
It Must Be The Ganja

To me all are sub-par.. the rhymes are cool but the over all songs just make Relapse sub par for me

Taking My Ball could be the goofy lead single

Hell Breaks Loose > OTS

You have to include Buffalo Bill cuz it's dope

I think relapse is fine the way it is. maybe the only addition would be music box, however it has the same theme as 3 am and SWA so i see why it didnt make the album

Relapse is already very much better than recovery in every single aspect of rapping.

I like Relapse but I have a beef with

My Mom
Hello
We Made You
Old Times Sake
It Must Be The Ganja

I don't know about OTS, but I remember Em said in one of his interviews for Recovery that My Mom, MBTG and Hello were written just when he had gotten off of the drugs and was relearning how to write, so he didn't really like them, either and that stuff like Stay Wide Awake and Deja Vu were made later, once he got comfortable with writing again.

So basically Em agrees with you. ;)

But I love the current tracklist. I think it's perfect.

He didn't actually say he disliked them, sorry, that was poor wording. He said something along the lines of "I felt like those songs weren't as good as they could have been."
I can see if I can hunt down the interview if you want.

Random question but what's your favorite Eminem album, Amadeo?

On topic, I think Recovery would still have more replay value for me. The only songs I play quite a bit from Relapse is My Mom, 3am, Deja Vu and Underground. I still give the album quite a few spins though. I like it, just prefer Recovery.

Don't quote me on this, but I think I remember reading an interview where Em says My Mom is part of the worst songs on Relapse as it was among the first recorded.

Either that or Must Be The Ganja.

Edit: Apparently someone already said this, damnit. And just when I thought my existence had a purpose.

My Mom and It Must Be The Ganja are awesome. People really do underrate MBTG for real, crazy rhymes.

Came back to annihilate, the game's in dire straights, as I await
Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

Naaaah, Recovery would stll have shit on it. Relapse could have been a chance if Em did it with his Hell: The Sequel spirit.
