Is it alright to post my review of relapse

Postby NateA92 » May 19th, '09, 23:04

Here is our Review of Relapse without giving too much away

1. "Dr. West" (skit)
2. "3am" Eminem's new accent is listenable in this serial killer ballad. 8/10
3. "My Mom" Talks about his mom...again, isn't all the same stuff we heard before 7.5/10
4. "Insane" Most of people will listen to the first 30 seconds of this and skip it, but it's actually decent, Marshall shows off his rhyming ability in a variety of ways. 7/10
5. "Bagpipes from Baghdad" "How can i describe the way that i feel" "F!!!ing great man!" 7.5/10
6. "Hello" Not one of my favorites, but better than we made you 6.8/10
7. "Tonya" (skit)
8. "Same Song & Dance" Type of killer song as 3am 7.5/10
9. "We Made You" First single, with less than first single esque stuff that we are use too, catchy 6.5/10
10. "Medicine Ball" Same category as Hello 6.8/10
11. "Paul" (skit)
12. "Stay Wide Awake" Sick chorus 7.8/10
13. "Old Time's Sake" Featuring the Doctor! 7/10
14. "Must Be the Ganja" Not one of my favorites either 6.8/10
15. "Mr. Mathers" (skit)
16. "Déjà Vu" Pretty dope song with some insight on what has happened to Marshall on his time away 8.5/10
17. "Beautiful" Another dope song, up their with Lose Yourself and Stan. 9.5/10
18. "Crack a Bottle" Hey, it did break the itunes download record 7/10
19. "Steve Berman" (skit)
20. "Underground" Dope, Marshall Mathers LP type of song. 9/10

Bonus:
My Darling: Should've replaced one of the songs on the album, Eminem and the Devil haha 8.5/10
Careful what you wish for: Brought back some Nostalgic moments of Eminem, Proof, and Obie Trice in the news. again, is better than some songs on the album, but a little short 8/10

Must listen too
Beautiful
Underground
Deja Vu
3am
My Darlin

Conclusion:

Eminem has beat alot of demons to come back and put back a pretty dope album, going through Rehab and the loss of Proof, i think everyone or atleast his fans, will be glad to see that Mr. Mathers is back and that Relapse 2 will be comming out later this year, and if Underground is any indication, it will be just as good if not better than relapse. Its nice too see some creativeness with the whole Relapse theme and not hearing about money, women and cars like we're use to hearing too. Fans of Eminem and hip hop should enjoy this, but bubblegum pop fans may only like a few songs as this is not Lil Wayne.

Overall: 4/5 Stars, definite pick up.

You rate most of the songs in the 7/10 range, yet you give the album a 4/5, that doesn't make sense to me
How ironic is it that I'm riding around listening to Nickelback? (I'm back!) - Royce

well thats just my opinion, everyone can't have the same view about the album and to the poster above, yeah i know alot of songs are in the 7/10 range which probobly means i should've rated the song like a 3/4 or something but i thought as a whole, it wasn't perfect, but it was pretty good, maybe i should go back and change the ratings of a few songs. thanks for the words guys!
