It`s badly let down by the unimpressive new artists Cashis and Bobby Creek. 50 Cent has much improved, his verses on this album are not bad at all. But, the only ones who had verses even near Em's level are Lloyd Banks, Obie and Proof. Who were all great!
Stand out tracks for me are "Were Back" as far as Obie`s verse, "You Don`t Know" Eminem and Lloyd Banks verse, "Jimmy Crack Corn" very good lyrics, even though i usually don`t like that southern slur he does, it`s still very good and as always very catchy, "We Ride For Shady" Just for Obie`s verse, as usual great flow and wordplay, "Smack That Remix" just for Akons new verse, cool shit, "Public Enemy #1" Awesome flow, my favourite of Eminems if it was a full track, pity. "No Apologies", awesome complete track, which is like the cherry on the cake, tops off a quality album. I heard the first 2 verses before, but, they fit this track to perfection. Didn`t really like the beat at first, but, when you hear the full track a few times, it`s perfection.
Can`t wait for a new Eminem album, hope he sticks with the high octane flow and lyric delivery.
couldn't really agree more, so i'm gonna refrain from writing a long ass post n just say that it took a couple of listens to get used to the beat on no apologies, but now i'm hooked
as for bobby creek n cashis...
the rest of the guys generally did great
so i'm gonna buy the album n give myself a nice pre-christmas present
