yea......erase everything I said earlier about the beats lol...i rushed thru the album (while busy doping other shyt) and was only trying to pickup his bars....i'm a fool for that...i'm listening to the album now and god damn :wow:. From what I remember on my first listen there may be two beats that I won't fully love...I forgot the names of teh track, but i'll know when I hear em...

how many of you nikkas realized he kept the same entire rhyme scheme on Legacy through each verse? if you took out the hooks it would be one long ass scheme....fukkin incredible. I love that beat btw...it's so simple and effective throughout the verses.

Like Busby said on a couple pages back this album is about Marshall Today...hence why he called it The Marshall Mathers LP 2...it isnt a direct sequel to the OG album (which was based on who he was at that time).

I need that grouprip ASAP...

Really dug Love Game. Both guys rapped their asses off but it wasn't on some direct outspitting shyt like "No Love" or "Renegade". Didnt expect it.

This is worse than Recovery.

When it started with Bad guy i was :krs: Dope beat, lyrics and the average female hook was tolerable here.
Then nothing but shyt, bland beats, forced rhyme schemes and boring songs.

The worst thing is the hooks, they are straight :gag: status. Em has been using the bland female hook for about 50 song now, Recovery was full of these, Bad Meets Evil had Above the law and Echo, and this album is full of that shyt.
Unlistenable hooks.

Not gonna even talk about Stronger Than I Was, gonna pretend it doesn't exist.
Wasted K.Dot feature on Love Game and Em's third verse was :aicmon:

Headlights was a lite version of Deja Vu or Going through changes.

And after an hour of pain Evil Twin came on :whoo:
That's a classic song, the biggie and pac line is :banderas:

So that's 2 Dope songs....out of 15.
This is gonna sell millions and be raved by critics but honestly stanleys this album is :camby:

( Yoda voice on Rhyme or Reason :lupe:)

As one of the few people who have probably heard every released Eminem song(underground shyt included)

Lol why do people say this shyt, especially during the internet age. I'd wager that 100% of people that are big eminem fans have listened to every single song by him. :stopitslime:

Meh. Glad I played this shyt through on my computer before adding it to my ipod.

I got so hyped when the I'm Back beat kicked in on "So Far..." then Em did his best Joe Walsh impression and I had to skip the track :rudy:

After listening to the album again, this album is :banderas:

If you are a real Eminem fan you would appreciate this album so much. When he said in that Rolling Stone interview that the album was more of a revisitation of the first MMLP he wasn't lying. Through out the whole album he through out lines that not only shades the first MMLP, but his previous albums as well. One example of this is the Parking Lot skit that is pretty much the continuation of the interlude from Criminal which left me like :banderas:. Or on Brainless when he throw out a few lines that went back to Brain Damage when he went in the closet to beat up the bully which left me like :whew:

To be honest my favorite track on here is So Far because it really shows Em dealing with becoming an adult and trying to catch up with how things changed. Especially the part where he aludes to I'm Back and The Real Slim Shady which left me like :pachaha:

He called this the Marshall Mathers LP 2 because this is the sequel to who he is as a person at this point in his life. The first MMLP was the album that summed up his thoughts of how he took fame and everything that came with it (the controversial, his family tearing apart, drugs, etc). MMLP2 is 13 years later and we've seen the out come of everything that happened in the first one and everything else in between :banderas::banderas:

There was very few "yelling" and there wasn't any "accents" but this album (with the exception of Stronger Then I Was and The Monster which I now lightweight hate because it throws off the whole flow of the album to me :aicmon:) is damn near perfection. If you are a Eminem fan and have been through the whole ride with him since the beginning. You should damn near call this album a instant classic. Yeah I said it :birdman:

I'm not even gonna lie, Headlights nearly had a nikka :to:...if y'all nikkas are mad and call that song wack just because he is apologizing to the person that gave birth to him then I don't know what the fukk to say to you.

In fact, if your expecting the same content he gave you on the first MMLP, then I suggest you go back and listen to Relapse. Cuz that's the closest you will EVER get to that side of Em again.

Production wise, you can TELL Rick Rubin and Dre had their hand on every single track and made sure that every track sounded :banderas:. I don't know what Rick Rubin did, but he made sure he got the very BEST out of Em. I :salute: that hippie!

When those bonus tracks drop..I might just put this album up there with The Eminem Show as Em most complete album.

The 2nd half of Bad Guy had a nikka like

Every rapper should be so blessed to have fans so shamelessly devoted....put out Lasers quality garbage and have it lauded as perfection :wow:

11 out of 16 is pretty good, thats better then most, I only liked 2 or 3 songs on drakes album... Anyway, this is a good eminem album lyricaly on par with recovery, not as creative as TES or the first MMLP but its solid effort and I like most of the songs on there, survival and beserk are kinda weak compared to the rest of the album... and I love how he always gives you 3 full verses, I feel like he gives you full complete songs
