Rank Eminem's albums

[Kill You]

K, you can laugh but it doesn't change shit. If you're going to make a comment like that and not even defend it then don't say it.

What's Eminem's best attributes, apart from rhyming (which is better on SSLP anyway).

[Kill You]

Story telling, which is what every Relapse song is. It's not JUST about rhyming, it's the music. I just prefer it and love it more. I'm not sorry for that.

[CrashBand]

which is what every Relapse song is.

no it's not lol, name which Relapse songs you think are storytelling songs

and Em's best storytelling apart from Stan and Kim is Brain Damage, Bonnie & Clyde, My Fault and As The World Turns

(not implying Stan and Kim are better showcases of storytelling)

I like those songs, but you cannot change my preferences.

You don't hear all the story telling? Even random-ass songs have a point. The only one that doesn't is Underground, that's more of a random "I'm back" track. I have studied the hell out of Relapse. I said it's not just the rhyming for me, it's the overall music and sound of it.

Now, I said that SSLP is probably better than Relapse in the grand scheme of things. But I just LIKE Relapse more. I wish that I wouldn't be put down for it tbh, there's no need. It doesn't make me any less of a fan than any of you. I understand Eminem, I get where he's coming from and I get why he loves Relapse so much because I love it for the same reasons. It is much more personal than you people give it credit for. I am practically just like him, so I completely get it.

[CrashBand]

I didn't say you were less of a fan, just that you don't understand why he is a contender for greatest rapper of all time. Which you don't, evidently.

With the whole 'best vs. favourite' conundrum, that was a misunderstanding I guess. I was arguing that SSLP is better than Relapse, then you came full force with the same old "I can like what I want". Although, it was implicit in my statement, lol.

And no, I don't think you "get" him, lol, and doubt you are even slightly like him. Now that is laughable.

[Kill You]

Okay. You don't know me, though. I understand why he is a contender, I don't care what you say, because I CAN like what I want and I will. You made it out like people who prefer Relapse are like, less than people who don't lol. That is really laughable.

I have nothing else to say to you, you will never change my mind like I will never change yours. So let's just drop it. But don't act like you know me when you don't. I don't know you, you don't see me making assumptions about you. Some of the most ignorant shit you ever said, I respect you a lot but lol.

[CrashBand]

I don't need to know you to know that you are most likely nothing like Eminem, lol.

Of course you can like what you want. Just admit that it's not as good.

I already said that it was implicit in my statement that I was talking about it being laughable that there are people who think Relapse is better than SSLP.

Stop giving the same spiel of bullshit about you having the unique special ability to like....what you like.

[Lost Myself]

This is gonna get hate but....

1. TES
2. MMLP
3. Recovery
4. Relapse
5. SSLP
6. Infinite
7. Encore

Recovery gets too much hate. People ignore that it's a very deep album, it's experimental, and as far as pure rapping goes (combining speed, force, and lyrics), it's insane. And yes, Eminem going as hard as he's ever been since MMLP makes the mediocre beats worth it for me. And can we appreciate that, despite the Lil Wayne feature (and Wayne's verse was actually pretty good for him), No Love is probably his best verse since Renegade and, as he stated in the song, could even be considered one of the best rap verses ever recorded? The album is dark and badass. The pop singer collabs are used in good purpose.

Meanwhile, I rank TES over MMLP just because of the more mature lyrics and better production. He slowed down so his lyrics would make an impact, and he does it in a way that no other Eminem album even comes close to. Yes, Relapse is ahead of SSLP, because it is a lyrical masterpiece. SSLP is an amazing album, but I feel like its depth and lyrical sophistication don't match up to Relapse. Infinite is forever underrated, and Encore is pretty much trash.

[Eedee]

This is purely based on preference, right? I'll take it as it is.

In terms of most played:

TES
Recovery
Relapse
MMLP
SSLP
Encore
Infinite

In terms of greatness:

TES
MMLP
SSLP
Recovery*
Relapse*
Encore
Infinite

* Interchangeable

Either of those lists could work for me, but I guess the first one is the closest. But it's really close between one and two and three and four.

Pretty generic, but...y'know, just throwing it out there.
