    Ok I've seen so many different opinions of these 4 albums on the forum. Undeniably the other 3 major label albums are classics and won't be included.

    So how to you go about ranking Encore, Relapse, Recover and MMLP2? From best to worst.

    Yeah I definitely have Recovery as that 4th best album. Although I certainly wouldn't have Encore as his worst.

    1. Recovery - Even though this album has its minor flaws and a couple of sub par songs it still has a strong and well executed concept and it carries a few songs which could even match his prime material. It's definitely his best album post hiatus.
    2. MMLP2 - What makes this album strong is some of the individual tracks that do stand out but what makes it weak is the fact that it doesn't seem to work well collectively as a real story or concept. In terms of skill though this album is the best of the 4 but unfortunately it's not enough to beat Recovery.
    3. Encore - The only reason that this album is above Relapse is some of the songs that make the album bearable.
    4. Relapse - Relapse succeeds with a concept and two or three good - great songs but other than that it's filled with so many flaws.

    I truly love them equally and think both are dope

    If you have different taste, or just hate Encore because everybody hates it, then it is not my problem that I love it.

    Big Weenie is on of my favorites.
    Rain Main is funny especially second verse. and I liked it more when Eminem performed it in Concerts.
    Just lose it = without me, and both are dope.it has 113 Million youtube views , are you kidding.
    Puke is meant to be singing, it is no rap. and I like it. I always sing it.
    My 1st single is my least favorite, it s----d a little but wasn't that bad.

    I don't agree, and I don't want to go into long argument.
