    They are both classic albums, imo The Eminem Show feels more solid for me as a whole.. but the highs on MMLP are higher and they are f---ing classics like k--- You, Stan, TRSS, The Way I Am, Im Back, Marshall Mathers, Criminal

    Therefore MMLP takes it for me

    3rd verse of Believe with the chorus for the Kamikaze tour would’ve been great

    Although nothing can top Lose Yourself...when you hear the first few chords after silence for a few mins, d---. At Wembley 90,000 people were signing along to every word of Lose Yourself so it’s a hard one to top

    No song can even come close to Lose Yourself for a closer.

    20. heard most of his early singles as a kid growing up. When I was in 2nd grade this one kid on the school bus had MMLP and we would all listen to it. I remember we’d have competitions to see who could listen to Kim for the longest lol.
    Good times.

    We all know that for pushing 10 years now he has closed every single show with a performance of Not Afraid and then Lose Yourself as the encore.

    Personally, I'm over it. I get why he does it, they are massive hits and still get played on the radio to this day.

    But if you would like to see him closes out his shows with a different song, what do you think would be the best track for him to perform?

    For me, either Marshall Mathers or Just Don't Give A f---

    FIrst Eminem tracks I heard were from MMLP. Heard them at school.

    But The Eminem Show is really the album I first listened to in full.

    I was 10 or 11 and had a friend that was a bit older than me that lived on my street. He had just bought the album and made me listen to it. I thought it was amazing so he burned me a copy.

    Spent the following days listening to that s--- on repeat. It was the greatest thing I had ever heard. Still one of my favourite albums of all time, all genres included.

    Later 8 Mile and Lose Yourself came out and I knew all the lyrics by heart. No joke, I had recorded Lose Yourself on a casette tape and listened to it over and over again until I knew almost every word.

    And that's pretty much it. TES was actually the first album i've ever had from any artist.

    What about you S80 fellows?
