    Well, but it counts at all. In recovery Eminem respected a specific argument and the athmosphere was the same throughout the album.

    It's like he was trying to please different audiences at the same time. If he had more "Brainless" or "Baby" sounding tracks i'd probably have liked the album more but there were songs that totally didn't belong. It's a travesty he called that album "MMLP2".

    Many of the members here would rather have TES as his only classic

    STIW is about KIM somehow. The Beat was dope, Eminem himself did it also, Hook was great, last verse dope and his singing really catches. Love it. Can't figure out all this hate on it

    I hope this is a troll

    GTC is the only classic on that album

    How can anyone with a brain say MMLP is his only classic when there’s TES lol

    Still a bad song, but classic and good don't need to run together imo.

    Agreed with all, but GTC and Not Afraid are both classic songs, no doubt

    It is a better album imo, but wouldn't agree with that sentiment unless perhaps I had a knife to my throat.

    Rather ask, how can anyone with a brain think 'classic' means anything to do with quality alone and actually matters objectively? Whether an album or song is a classic isn't objective, and it has more to do with popularity and impact than actual quality. Talking quality, GTC is the better song (at least it's not corny), but Not Afraid had way more cultural impact than GTC.
