EMINEM - RECOVERY (Official Discussion)
quiksta80:
I just heard recovery all the way through and I have to say I think relapse is by far a way better album. Yes relapse had the accent thing going on but i think the accent was way more annoying in encore then it was in relapse. The beats were still banging and the rhymes were tight in relapse. Recovery the beats are mediocore, i don't dig the singing he does a lot on the album and I dont prefer a eminem that yells his raps on almost every song.
Action!:
On a second listen I like it less than I did the first time. It's hard to listen to a track all the way through because of the whiny choruses they've used from both Eminem and the guest features.
I enjoyed Lil Wayne more than I did most of Eminem's rhymes on this release.
I think what Shallow was getting at is there's something missing in this album. It's like the spark, the rawness, the energy of life isn't here. It's got the perfect get up but it all feels fake.
Eminem was his best on tracks like Lose Yourself, Run Rabbit Run, Beautiful, etc. All of them captured the spirit and the track fully translated energy unlike this album.

"It's got a good beat I can bump to it". If music doesn't speak to me I don't want to hear it. That being said, nothing on Recovery "speaks" to me. And I don't mean some pseudo serious diatribe about changing the world. Just give me something real, and I'm sorry but Wild Wild West ain't it. If it's not coming from the heart then what is the point. And I don't just mean lyrics.

Kill You isn't from the heart and doesn't speak to anyone. As a matter of fact most of Eminem's music isn't intended to be taken seriously. I don't see how you can feel that way and still be a fan of Eminem considering a lot of his music is made for its shock value.
Music is music because of the way it sounds. Lyrics that "speak to you" won't make a song a good piece of music. You also need it to sound good. While I agree that the best songs can do both, production is always more important when it comes to music. Real lyrics over shitty production doesn't make better music than "fake" lyrics over great production. After all, if it were just about the lyrics we might as well all go and listen to spoken word artists and forget this hip hop nonsense.

You clearly did not understand my point at all. Re-read my post and then play the link I added and then get back to me.
