    Crack A Bottle 8/10? That's Insane.

    Anyways, I understand why people don't like it, but I personally find it very enjoyable.

    Yeah it's for very simple reasons tbh

    Subject Matter
    Accent
    Basic simple production
    Flow
    Forced rhyming especially when he was bendig words just to make them rhyme
    Serial Killer theme

    But everyone does love the hooks on the album that is 1 thing that everyone says was great the hooks on the album

    Ony accents and subject matter bother people. Rhymes are fluid, flow is flawless, production is the best he ever had.

    This. Everyone makes excuses for Em.

    Also, dont be so quick to say enocre s----d because of drugs, as the shady compilation has normal songs recorded in 2006, so dont make excuses for him. Even "smack that" waa recorded during his troubled period, so again, its all excuses.

    Interscope if anyone is to blame for encore, allowing that peice of unfinished s--- to walk out the door.

    Relapse on the other hand, held against his other work is sub par, at best. He was sober for the eminem show, so your logic is flawed (@ Op)

    He wasn't sober for TES. He just wasn't on any illegal substance

    I feel like Em bit off more than he can chew starting 2002-2004 .

    The Eminem Show
    Anger Management tour
    8 Mile, movie and soundtrack
    Produced 50 Cent's album
    Produced Obie Trice's album
    D12 World Album
    Tupac's Loyal to the Game Album
    Encore.

    I mean no wonder he started popping pills to stay awake and stay focused, that's a shitload of projects in the span of 2 years.

    We're talking about a guy WHO has nothing to do except making music dude. It's not that much of a load to a guy whose job is to rap and make music after all.. It's not like he go to school or work in a 9 to 5 job
