Extended Play as in not one song, multiple songs.

theres SP, EP, LP, SLP

they're old industry terms....

back in the day artists would release singles on record and it would have one song maybe two...
thats an SP record or "short play"

an EP is "extended play" 3-8 songs on it... not a full album but not a single either

LP "long play" is todays standard album

if MMLP didn't have LP it would be "The Marshall Mathers" doesn't make sense.

but if relapse had LP at the end it wouldn't make sense either - Relapse LP, that would be like calling it Relapse Album. But they could've added "the" to the beginning to make it "The Relapse LP" :o Now that i think of it that would have been kind of funny

maybe after Relapse 2 he would make an album called The _______ LP, that would be cool :happy:

LP and EP were mainly used for Vinyls and we know how eminem loves to rep Vinyls.. so i'm assuming thats' why he did it.

I know what LP means but I thought it's obviously he used that because it looked cool/fit.
