! Relapse Gets Full Score !

Postby SajN » May 16th, '09, 16:24

One of Norway's biggest newspaper gave Relapse 6. This means it's on top because here we judge something with the numbers from a dice. 1 is bad, and 6 is best. It's like 5/5, 10/10, 100/100, 34,9773/34,9773, you see my point.

So here is what they say, I did a quick translation from Google Translator (changed some lines to make it easier for you to understand, but I guess some lines are gramatically wrong or something lol... dont blame me):


It's time to hate - and love - him again.

Many have whispered about how ridiculously good things can be when Eminem and Dr. Dre locks themselves in together. Fortunately they can now only sit back and say: What did I tell you? This disc is in line with the legendary "Marshall Mather LP" from 2000, if not, better.

Uncensored and implemented without being taken, and most of all; classic Eminem. Biographical, reproaching and brilliant. At his best when he is cleaning the skeleton out of the closet, and the lyrics suggests that much shit has gone down since last.

"I guess it's time for you to hate me again" he sings in the hysterical "Medicine Ball". And we have either hated, or been a fan of Eminem since Slim Shady struck through with lyrics about incest, murder, homophobia, and a growth out of the ordinary - all delivered with frightening zeal.

The tools are the same, striking power and the flow likewise. His mother suffers in "My Mom", he gives us feelgood with "Hello", feelings/emotions with "Beautiful" and "Same Song & Dance" is a sarcastic tribute to individual women. But as always, it is Eminem himself who really goes thorugh it all in his philosophical universe.

A six disc (they're saying that this is a 6-album, hence the diceroll it got) will give you the artist at his best, and little more. Dr. Dres magical hands is that little extra in this case, he has produced everything but one song.

The album ends with a masterpiece in the form of pompous and grim "Underground", which is in line with good, old "Criminal." Almost growling, almost crying, never cruises - always on the corners. Shady's back. Back again.

where do you guys get the idea that relapse is better than MMLP lyrically. i like relapse because the beats are sick and he still rips it on most of the tracks but i don't think relapse is better lyrically. I still put this album above encore but below everything else in terms of lyricism.

when he first came out, he was saying jaw-dropping multis, punchlines, and just crazy ass stories in general all while making sense. do you know how hard it is to tell a story like "as the world turns" (although thats SSLP) while speaking in multi-syllables throughout the whole song pretty much? i think lyrically SSLP and TES are his best, MMLP is a notch behind but had the best production, and infinite's better half is his most "hip hop" album lyrically.

relapse is good, don't get me wrong but better than MMLP? :unsure: GTFOutta here
