It is.

Take away the so-so production and you have a very good album lyrically, as a whole.

i don't think people realized how sick or complex the rhyme patterns were

example

Back by popular demand
Now pop a little Zantax or antacid if you can
You're ready to tackle any task that is at hand
How does it feel: Is it fantastic, is it grand?
Well look at all the massive masses in the stands
Shady man, no, don't massacre the fans
Damn, I think Kim Kardashian's a man
She stomped him, just 'cause he asked to put his hands
On her massive, gluteus maximus again
Squeeze it and squash it and pass it to a friend
Can he come back as nasty as he can?
Yes he can, Cam, don't ask me this again
He does not mean to lesbian offend
But Lindsay, please come back to seein' men
Samantha's a two, you're practically a ten
I know you want me girl, in fact I see ya grin
Now come in girl!

No one ever had a problem with it lyrically. That was never a major criticism of the album. For me where this album fails is giving you an entire album of disposable lyrics. You leave this album thinking you heard the fantasies of a grown man reminiscing on what used to scare him at night. I feel like this entire album didn't give me one bit of substance, and I can't go for that. It just didn't do anything for me or impress me in the slightest.

there's a difference between being good technically and being good lyrically

the LYRICS on this album are trash, rhyme schemes don't make them better

:ohlawd:

Easily his worst.

Agree that Relapse has great lyrics just not nearly as creative as past Em efforts. Em top 5 DoA though.

Easily his worst?



heaven forbid Eminem finally stops rapping about beating up NSync and f ucking Jessica Simpson



:wow::wtb::snoop:

Recovery was absolutely terrible.

It's an album called recovery, celebrating being clean yet he's still having lines about doing pills.


Let's not even get into how the beats and hooks were utter trash.

fukking haters...

**sigh**

let me just quote what i said in another thread

said it once and I'll say it again...Relapse was the fukking shyt!!

When We Made You dropped nikkas really gave the album :snoop: :rudy: and were loading that clip just to hate on Em and say that he fall off.

But then when the album leaked nikkas were like :ohhh: :whoo: :gladbron:

I mean shyt...y'all gave it 4 mic...numbers don't lie nikkas Eminem - Relapse Thread (Talk about it HERE) - ProjectCOVO.com Global Forum :smugfavre:

Em was gone for 4 years and he came back with VENGEANCE on Relapse. He did EXACTLY what y'all wanted him to do, and that was to go back to that Slim Shady personal. From a lyrical stand point, Relapse was one of Em's best albums.

I don't get where are the hate came from all of a sudden. That infamous "accent" was just an excuse for nikkas to hate. To be honest, I don't get HOW u can hear a song like Stay Wide Awake and just say that it was wack I just CAN'T! :damn:

The way he was just flowing and the way he was just rhyming EVERY. SINGLE. WORD. and ON BEAT was just :ohhh:

Also in my opinion, the production by Dre was Dre's BEST production since Doggystyle. The beat for My Mom, Insane, Bagpipes From Baghdad

I wish they would have released an instrumental album of Relapse :ahh:

And I do wish Em would have just said 'fukk everybody" and released Relapse 2. I mean he could have just released it as a free mixtape on his website or something. I mean he should have just released that just for the fans that wanted to hear it..oh well

Recovery was cool IMO...but u can tell he just did that album for the mainstream folks :smh:


all in all Relapse was the shyt!! and fukk ANYBODY that says different..

:aicmon:


relapse was dope lyrically, but no

honestly it's one of the only eminem albums with the type of production that i would actually like to ride around to, i never deducted points from him based on a lack of whip appeal, but compared to to his other albums it probably has the best overall production package for that, even moreso than recovery seeing how the beats were kinda drowning him out a lot of the time

El kills Em when it comes to multis.

Remain a fresh goon 'til my flesh prune
You'll need a vest soon, to catch a chest wound
Have you rest, above the crest moon
On your block, get your door knocked
Then by my warlocks, who wore glocks
And left you with stains too deep for Clorox
Run rap beneath sun cap, levels is untapped
Done laps around a spun mat, hoes get they buns slapped
Y'all panic from all static, that's what I call frantic
Lookin shook as a small planet becomin volcanic
Off top, y'all soft pop, weak as a cough drop
I'll oft cop, to stop in the mall, so I can club shop
Veteran, you better involve us all in the letterin
If I don't get your girl wetter than, I must have met her twin
Create rhymes that are straight bombs, and call 'em Napalm
I date dimes and maybe an eight, if she got great palms
'Nough said, get at a rough dread, so I could puff red
I cuff bread, I'm paid and got maids, that could fluff beds
I even snuff heads
