GZAS doing Liquid Swords 2 and Az is doing Doe or Die 2...should be interesting lol

Oh man, this guy fucking rips it. And I like the singing

ehh i dont know why but i dont really like it. It's not one of those albums you can remember the lyrics and sing along to ('without me' for instance, plus his older stuff with D12 before they we're a group). There are insanely good lyrics in there but its a bit too fast paced and long drawn out for me, waiting on Dre's album now i guess ;\

Keep it on replay dude, you'll like it. What I like about most of his shit is that you can't play it once and like/love it because it ain't no crappy catchy mainstream shit. You have to let it grow on you. If you play it over and over you won't get sick of it, you'll love it even more. At least that's how I feel about his music

Almost famous is probably my favourite

Cant get enough of it, had it on repeat for the whole hours of work last night,

So far best songs for me are No love, Spacebound, Love the way you lie and almost famous

no love is my favourite prob, good album

I take back what i said about the cheap beats, theyre all fire except W.T.P and Wont Back Down. Probably not on the same calibre as past albums where Dre had been working over them for years but still fire. My fav beat is either Cinderella Man or Almost Famous, i don't think anybody can not like Almost Famous. As for fav overall track i think i would have to say So Bad, the Dre beat is sick, the hook is sick and the verses are illmatic. Least favourite track is W.T.P, it is very reminiscent of the Slim Shady LP days but i just don't like it.

As far as rapping his flow and overall style has definitely changed which isn't good or bad. It's kinda hard to explain how everything has changed but firekidt11 hit the nail on the head about the 'dragging' thing. His voice has also changed, he is pretty much yelling all of his lines now which makes shit a bit more intense however i think it also takes away some of the sting of his punchlines. Like someone else said the first time i listened to the album no lines stuck out at all but after a few more listens you start to notice that almost every bar is lyrically insane. Also 17 tracks on 1 album is massive and none of them even suck.

Once again hes taking away album of the year EASY although Drake will probably get all the artist of the year awards and shit.

Won't back down is great.

this album has a few songs which i can relate to so much at the moment. loving it.

definately one of his best albums and album of the year for me

Nigga, you trippin.

I love it and it's better than Relapse but not sure if I'll take it over Encore.

I like it better than some of his other stuff, can't stand the skits he does on his older albums, i mean they are ok once but have no replay value. It's a lot better than he's released in atleast his last 3 albums.

That's exactly how I feel except bit more props for Encore.

don't worry bout that detox album . . . . . its comin...

After like 5 listens right now I feel like it's ok but I think Big Boi and Kanye are going to have better albums.

May not be particularly relevant to the thread, but ah well.

Better than Relapse and Encore combined. And I love/like those two albums.

You're Never Over is my favorite song on the album. Anyone else going to buy it?

wtp and talkin 2 myself are beast.

ROFL.

Well, I bought Relapse and was planning on buying Recovery too but it costs like 20 euros here which is alot of money for a cd...

rumour :recovery is a double disc album.

(Cashis confirming him making the cut for the album - Slaughterhouse did too)

Some other small things are pointing in the same direction.

Imagine another batch of songs equally awesome as the 1s leaked.

I heard Recovery came with a code so you could download Relapse 2...Idk if thats true or if there really making it double disc.

There is no Relapse 2. Em said Recovery was supposed to be Relapse 2, but it didnt feel the same as Relapse 1 so he wanted to make it a whole different album

Screw you both! CDs FTW!

Yeah I know you can download all the tracks that was to be Relapse 2.

Just listened to the whole thing, not really being a fan of rap anymore.

But having said that, first album I ever spent money on was marshal mathers LP.

Enjoyed it.

They could just add 3 bonus tracks and then spread the album over 2 disks since theres already 17 tracks.

There will be some bonus songs on the deluxe edition but another full cd? Nah, Eminem himself said that he's throwing the Relapse 2 tracks in the trashcan basically.

im hoping it will grow on me more.

Who needs to support artists anyway?

The day Eminem needs my money more than I do is the

I don't know man, from the sound of his last album, he seems to be in trouble.

If everyone had that attitude no one would've bought any of his albums

I don't see how you even have a moral standpoint on it since you're a fucking retard.

I have morals, I'm such a retard.

Swing and a miss.

I bought his first four albums (sans Infinite), so no.
Even so, if he only had tour revenue and no one paid for his albums, he'd still earn more in a year (22 million in 2000) than I would in a lifetime.

i like how he raps about real shit

listen to 25 to life and tell me what you guys think its about

i think its about

drug problems, wife and hip hop...also he's been a rapper since he was 13 and he is now 38 so 25 to life?? hmm

He's 37

ughhhh my bad, never seen this topic and didnt know the leak came out so long ago ;\

Great album!

Been so busy that I haven't managed to get ANY new music on my Ipod in the last few months. Synced the bitch today, sat outside for like 2 1/2 hours in the sun listening to the album. NOT a fan of the actual beats, but lyrically...Loved it.

Yeah, Talkin' 2 Myself is amazing, and really enjoying Won't Back Down with Pink's vocals and the drums
