lol, you clearly said, "who gives a fuck what ChamillitaryClick or any other fucker says? it's your opinion" & then go on in the SAME post explaining your opinion... :loco:
& Bar Exam III had about seven good songs; considering it had around 20 (not counting skits) that's not exactly good.
the best songs on it were good, but overall it wasn't as good as i thought it was going to be.
virtuoso:
Cold Wind Blows 3.5/5
Talking to Myself 4.5/5
On Fire 3/5
Won't Back Down 4/5
WTP - 4/5
Going Through Changes 5/5
Not Afraid 4.5/5
Seduction 3.5/5
No Love 4.5/5
Space Bound 4.5/5
Cinderella Man 4/5
25 To Life 4.5/5
So Bad 2.5/5
Almost Famous 4.5/5
Love The Way You Lie 4/5
You're Never Over 3/5
This is a great album, yes there are some corny moments on here, particularly the singing but a lot of the time it blends well enough. The exception to that is You're Never Over could have been a terrific song had it been for the awful singing on it. So Bad is the same old, same old dre production, and the song is not in the least bit inspiring. On Fire is okay but was a little disappointing but the rest for me ranges between good to very very good.
Just my opinion but fuck it, as for wanting it to sound good, of course I wanted it to sound good but the first time I heard this I realised damn I really like this. There are some songs in here not employing that deep insistent intense flow, but actually shit, at least he adds some emotion to his voice, so many rappers just rap with one voice.
To me this is the window into Eminem's mind, introspection is what keeps me captivated, I don't think it's contrived, it's too personal to be contrived
Anyways that's just my opinion and i will try and let it lie now lol

that's what i'm saying; but it just goes to show you how high people's expectations of Eminem are.
clearly so high that a CD that they would of called "solid" at least for anybody else, is "absolute garbage" for Eminem.

Eminem SHOULD have high expectations, The music he makes that I like from him is very hard to make, and can be hit or miss.. And I don't see why this album is solid. Because of the big budget names and features? To me that doesn't give you a pass for a solid album. Even on the grandest stage, you have to earn your praise. The beats on here are good enough to work with. It's Eminem I am rating here: the songs lack focus.
The same problem with Encore and Relapse. There was nothing you could take away from alot of the songs. Eminem is good because he is good at writing about his life in a way that you can relate to it. He doesn't do this too often on Recovery, it's a 1-sided affair for alot of the songs..
Let's use Cinderella Man as an example. "Music is my time machine" that's relatable, I'm feeling it.. Than "Cinderella Man, Cinderella Man", that automatically brings the POV right to Eminem. It's a song about himself, not about music. Very isolating to listen to, as a listener.
There is a fine line in this phrase: "Music is about your life, not you." Eminem didn't meet that, and even with the tools he has, falls into an average rapper on this CD.

Also another thing, I'm already tired of the big sounding snare Dre trended, and now every producer uses it..
Jaydc:
The more I listen to it,the less I like the album.I couldnt even make it through the album my third go round,I started skipping almost every song a minute into it :-\
