    Listened to this again yesterday, my thoughts

    Cold Wind Blows: cringeworthy song with a hook I like and some parts that are okay. Like the intro as well.
    Talking 2 Myself: great song. Not a fan of the hook, but his verses >
    On Fire: sounds like a relapse song minus the fact it doesn't have a killer Dre beat
    Won't Back Down: awful, but I guess as an opening song for his shows.. nah f--- that, s--- song.
    WTP: people say it's bad, it's cringe, and it probably is but the way it sounds.. I love it. Catchy hook, nice flow/voice and the beat is a b-----r.
    GTC: terrible sample/chorus, amazing verses. This is the way he should do a serious song.
    Not Afraid: okay quit playin with the scissors and s---, and cut the crap. Sure, important single for him but nah, not a fan. Liked it when it dropped a lot though.
    Seduction: Love it. Delivery is great, love the chorus and the beat too. And not many bad lines.
    No Love: Wayne kills it. Eminems verse sounds cool even though it's about absolutely nothing. Chorus is okay.
    Space Bound: beautiful. No other words needed.
    Cinderella Man: a lot of terrible lines but not gonna lie, I like it.
    25 to life: ugh I hate this sample/chorus, whatever it is. I like the verses altough he tries too hard to make it sound like a relationship song and in the end say HAHA I got you guys!!!
    So Bad: not much to say about this, I like it, but it's not a really a good song.
    Almost Famous: Cold wind blows part 2 but a little better.
    Love The Way You Lie: rihanna on autopilot and Eminem with, again, cringe lines. I don't dislike it that much, it's okay I guess, for a radio single.
    Your Never Over: a tribute song that is hard to take serious when he makes some dumb jokes. However, like @Koolo already said, the 2nd verse is beautiful and like I said to him, the last part of that verse is absolutely amazing.

    I don't dislike this album that much, but I rather just play 5 or 6 songs from it and ignore the rest.

    why do people always say em songs are cringe? like they're just verses, it's apart of wordplay. do you really pay attention to the lyrics so deeply that little one liners affects the way you feel about the song? Jfc

    This is why u shouldn't let trolls on blogs like this get to u

    Everyone knows it's a classic album outside hip-hop blogs like this. In the real world the album is the definition of popular

    Relapse = sslp (shady)
    Mmlp2 = mmlp (Marshall)
    Recovery = TES (Eminem)
    ? = encore...

    By this theory, his next album will s--- balls.
