"A couple more years that s---'ll be Illmatic"

Hear me out, I had this thought a while back but never posted it.

I often see people saying how Eminem's album have not aged well, which is very true. I struggle to even get through MMLP or TES without feeling a somewhat sense of boredom or being distracted by something else.

But with Encore, I don't get that feeling. Unfortunately there are some tracks on there that we have to put up with so that's why I'm focusing on songs that are okay-great. For example:

Never Enough
Yellow Brick Road
Like Toy Soldiers
Mosh
Spend Some Time
Mockingbird
Encore
We As Americans
Love You More

A lot of these songs I tend to enjoy more than some of his classics. Production is great, focused more on story telling and focused less on rhyming a lot. A lot of these songs I really enjoy and I always see people praising certain songs on here whereas a lot of songs on his best albums don't even get a mention.

So I return to my question when I ask, is Encore Eminem's most well aged album?
