    MMLP was recorded between August 99 et April 00. Not even talking about when it was written, you'd be even more wrong.
    SSLP was entirely recorded by the end of 98.
    Love You More was officially released in 2004.

    Plus you're the one obsessed with Love You More being from 03 or 04, why would you attack me when I just said the song was better than everything he did since Recovery ?

    Must be sad for you to get schooled like this. You call yourself a stan, I don't even care about Eminem... And yet you manage to sound ignorant as f---

    I along with thousands of orher people like to just pretend 2007 existed.

    Considering he didnt do anything for the majority of the year.

    Musically and lyrically the year of 2004 was god awful and thats with him being involved with a couple albums. Including encore. Where as in 07 he had a few features n skits.

    I dont hate encore. Actually its a personal gem to me and i enjoy the humor. But its sonically his 2nd worst album and lyrically his 1st worst.

    Sonically his worst is recovery.

    Cohesively his worst is mmlp2.

    Alot of the GOOD encore tracks were from 2003 and were released prior to the album. This (as many think) is why he threw s--- tracks on the actual album and left the good ones on the bonus cd.

    I know it got leaked, I didn't know Universal then used the songs to put out an "official" european CD. Straight from the Lab was first an illegal bootleg in the US.
    You're right about not adressing the other points I brought up (about SSLP & MMLP), you can't respond to them.
    You're also right about Recovery 'sonically' being his worst album

    Ftr i meant recorded and went back n fixed it

    But either way it doesnt matter because my point initially was from 2003, and indeed was released officially in 2003, regardless of how. Lmao

    And yea recovery is easily the worst sonically where as encore isnt as bad because it has the same smooth vibe throughout.

    The yelling flow on 70% of the tracks and production are definitely worst than Encore

    Yeah but most people in this section have s-----y opinions and cant actually structure an argument as to why any post hiatus albums are better than Encore. The reason for that is most his post hiatus work has more mainstream appeal and that is it. Every post hiatus album has at least as many bad songs as Encore. Relapse is the only album with a better concept/theme but was very poorly executed. Although half the album is bad Encores theme is still perfectly executed. Encores bottom 3 >>> MMLP2's bottom 3.

    Also MMLP2 is dreadful, I don't even like Recovery and I still laugh at the fact you rate it lower than MMLP2

    And?

    I literally just said sonically recovery is his worst album? Youre repeating what i said.

    As a whole, encore is worse.

    What i rate an album has nothing to do with where i rank it.

    Sonically recovery is way worse than mmlp2
    Cohesively mmlp2 is way worse than recovery
    Lyrically mmlp2 s----s on recovery.


    Theres too many factors that go into a rating rather than a ranking.

    Songs like:
    Evil Twin
    Groundhog Day
    Dont Front
    Brainless
    Rhyme or Reason
    So Far
    Wicked Ways
    Baby

    Etc etc, though not cohesive as a whole.

    They are better content than recovery. The lyrics and flows that are used are not even near the same level.
    The syllables he was nailing on mmlp2 is years ahead of recovery.

    Though i would take recoverys worst three over say... Stronger than i was etc, i would take mmlp2's highs over recoverys highs.

    Its not as simple as people make it out to be. Especially if were actually going to compare the two. We could break it down if you'd like?
    Evil Twin > Almost Famous
    Going Through Changes > whatever etc. (Examples).

    Not here to defend Recovery it's a bad album, it was more of a shot at MMLP2. As a whole MMLP2 has more listenable songs but Recovery's highs are higher imo GTC, Seduction and Space Bound (The only three songs I like from the album).

    Of all those songs you mentioned half have s--- lyrics pop up constantly throughout or in big chunks of the song.

    So Far is literally on par with Encores bottom 3 as is Survival
    I don't even have words to describe STIW is

    Encore > MMLP2 imo
