MMLP2 General Discussion

[RSoares]

It's been a month since it leaked. I didn't get tired of this album even for a moment.

I know right.

First off, I'd like to say that I think Em finally proved that he is back again and in sort of a second prime. The thing I find interesting is that I feel like on Recovery he said multiple times how he is back, feels like he is himself again, he is on top of his game, etc. whereas on MMLP 2 he didn't really say all those statements but rather showed it through all the incredible songs.

Basically I'm getting at the saying "show don't tell." On Recovery Em told us he is the greatest but IMO didn't have too many examples to back up his statements but on MMLP 2 he just showed us he is the greatest through his phenomenal songs. It's kind of 2 different ways to go about proving a point; either showing or telling. On Recovery, he told. On MMLP 2, he showed. The latter is much more effective.

yeah thats true, some of that was in BME as well when he was spitting lines like "shouldn't have to explain my metaphors".

I think that was just a totally vulnerable period for em, especially on Recovery, vulnerable content and also vulnerable in his writing skills as well... i think the relapse bashing really knocked the shit out of him tbh.. and im not hating on recovery or bme either, even with them faults, they where still decent albums which i liked, but i can admit, em wasn't at his best in them

In b4 in 2014 he's scheduled to be on Rihanna's on a song called "Numb 2", Yelawolf's albums on "Throw It Up 2" and a freestyle called "SCREAMING AT HOES IN KMART CAR PARK EATING TACO BELL AND MAKING PENIS INUENDOS."

"SCREAMING AT HOES IN KMART CAR PARK EATING TACO BELL AND MAKING PENIS INUENDOS."

I'm the illest rapper to hold a hoe's hand while going into Target
Yelling at them for buying the wrong brand of headphones that weren't made by the Doctor
Taco Bell is shittier than K-Mart when they charged 5 dollars for a Halloween costume
Told 'em to fuck off like a sex contest
If my dick was any bigger it'd be a King Kong sized monster
Shoutout to Royce and mom, yes
Hoes tell me I suck worse than they do
Told 'em to jump out the shopping cart in the parking lot
If they didn't they'd have to suck Royce's cock

I'm diggin' Throw It Up so much. Plus Em's verse on Numb was great.

Troll says the same.

Throw It Up is cool though, I've always enjoyed it.

Of course Troll says that same.

Ha ha!

I thought it was dope to hear Eminem on a southern beat, he should really work with DJ Paul and do some ThreeSix shit. Except...lyrically dope. I love 36 but not for their lyricism.

His verse was really weak to me doe, except for that part where he slows his flow with the "Oh, this is ugly boy swag/Putting toe tags on you motherfucking ho bags" stuff. He sounded like he was imitating that 3-6 sound.

Anyways, this album is still dope. Asshole sounds great in the car stereo, man.

[IBasicallyRage]

Lmfao Wth. And yeah I would be interested in seeing something like that ^

Agreed. so far was top notch

On VERY first listen So Far... can either be hit or miss with people. It takes a second listen to fully appreciate it. I wasn't a big fan on first listen but on second listen I loved it. A lot of these songs honestly shock you and take you by surprise. Didn't like Love Game or Asshole at first either, now I really like those songs.

Asshole beat isn't bad at all lol it fits what he's saying. Once you get over the initial shock of some tracks you can really form a true opinion on them.

Great album but doesn't feel like its a classic. Obviously it needs to age a lot but as of now imo its not at that level. Is GKMC a certified classic now?
